Alexander,

Yes, that recurrence seems to work. I had no success with Superseeker
finding a recurrence or a g.f. That prompted my question to the list
(http://list.seqfan.eu/pipermail/seqfan/2010-August/005605.html) "Run
Superseeker on existing sequence?"

The original sequence was generated by a simple brute-force computer
algorithm. The relationship to the Motzkin triangle A026300 was
observed while playing around with the paths and their counts.

I cannot add anything that would help Richard's correspondent.

Regards
dave

WolframAlpha - given  the partial set of A081113 terms as Input :
{1, 4, 17, 68, 259, 950, 3387, 11814, 40503, 136946, 457795, 1515926,
4979777, 16246924, 52694573, 170028792, 546148863, ...}
correctly guesses the rest of A081113 terms
Possible continuation:
1,4,17,68,259,950,3387,11814,40503,136946,457795,1515926,4979777,16246924,52694573,170028792,546148863,1747255194,5569898331,17698806798,56076828573,177208108824,558658899825,1757365514652,5517064515933,17288356984560,54082946719557,...
And suggests recurrent formula
Possible recurrence relation:
a_(n+4) = (27 n a_n)\/(n+3)+(27 a_(n+1))\/(n+3)-(9 (2 n+5)
a_(n+2))\/(n+3)+((8 n+21) a_(n+3))\/(n+3) (for all terms given)
