You're absolutely right about the lack of raised platforms and the difficulty it poses. I had serious trouble with it when I was great with children having significant trouble hauling my bulk up to that first step. I faced it again last summer when I badly sprained my ankle. It is a shame. I do know though that they have lifts for those in wheelchairs in at least a couple of stations, Hoboken included. Rutherford has a ramp where the pull the train forward to get it to line up with the door. But you're right, in the 15 years I've been commuting via NJ Transit, I've seen far more bicycles in that space.CrazyFiberLadyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06406227355221687996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13750794.post-1146755700855785802006-05-04T11:15:00.000-04:002006-05-04T11:15:00.000-04:00The LL colroway is neat I like it..

Most people may only see the inconvenience of taking their bicycle but you applied this and explored what a lot of us may overlook.

We take stuff like that for granted. My campus is mostly wheelchair accessible, but even then! you have to get around all the landscaping and stone steps to find the wheelchair ramps. I imagine it would take ages to get to where you were going.<BR/><BR/>I saw your sock and and I was like, man, that looks familiar! and then it dawned on me...the top I *just* finished (FO pix to come) is the exact same colors!Olgahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13299984579211690345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13750794.post-1146667420022112792006-05-03T10:43:00.000-04:002006-05-03T10:43:00.000-04:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Olgahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13299984579211690345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13750794.post-1146658937889604282006-05-03T08:22:00.000-04:002006-05-03T08:22:00.000-04:00I love that sock - its really pretty!

Don't worry, it will stretch - I recently got a pair of feather and fan anklets out of one identical skein of that LL's yarn with even a little bit (not much but enough for a few stripes on each of a pair of oddball socks) leftover. I did do the heels/toes in a contrasting color, as you are planning. But I think you'll be ok on yardage.<BR/><BR/>Have a fabulous time at MDS&W! I have festival envy!Will Pillage For Yarnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15351477258799527005noreply@blogger.com
