Sorry for the late email, just realized it was my at-bat here -

this route from the library struck my fancy. I haven't done either Sanborn or Toll Gate in a while so it's time for some different suffering. :) 

In the event that lower Pierce does have construction my plan is to return via Mt. Eden instead. We shall see.

Start at Shoup Park, 9am. There isn't really an obvious place for a lunch stop, so maybe just a longer stop at Sanborn Park to eat bars or what have you.
