[nagdu] steps at the street

[Cindy Ray]

Oh, I think I would treat each step as if it were a curb. You can reach out your foot to check if there is another, and when there isn't, if there is no traffic he will go. I especially think this because of all you went through last year.

In one particular section of town that sits on a hill, there are many street corners that have a few stairs that bring you down from the sidewalk/house level to the street level.  All of them that I have encountered have a longer than typical stretch between each step.  So what happens is that Monty stops, I find the step, he steps down at my cue, he holds steady while I step down, I listen for traffic and cue forward appropriately, Monty moves forward about18 inches and stops again for the next step, rinse and repeat.  The issue is that I can't tell which is a step and which is the curb.  There isn't a consistent number of steps on each of the street corners like this.  They have so far been on quiet residential streets, so the process hasn't been too delayed by traffic.
