In any case, the signs were replaced after the April 29 eruption, and they are still there.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Also, just today we had some discussions about Grotto and (though, again, we haven't been able to get out there a lot) we have no evidence of a true marathon since the park opened (a mini-marathon sort of thing, yes, but nothing longer than maybe 12 hours max).</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Well, who knows?!</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>T.
