(ALTERNATIVES) How 'rsync' two in a script with one password?

Thanks ET. While I plan to try to set up the key based authentication that
Bryan explained, this sshfs looks like a good alternative. However, I
don't quite understand the sshfs example, especially the "/path/I/care"
part and all the rest that should follow on the sshfs line. How would I do
that in the example that I originally provided?

# update.blue

sshfs (what goes here?):/(what goes here?)/ (what goes here?)
