Boy, Chris, I'd join you for that ride -- if I didn't have to spend a couple days on each side of it getting there and getting home. Oh, well....

Chris, I've got friends up with their sailboat and they are taking us out. Sorry. Is that a paved road? I'm surprised I didn't know about this as it's not that far from Port Townsend. How do you find these things?

Chris,

That looks like a neat ride route! I cant do it for real , but I will be thnking about you as you do it.

I wish you Sfe journey during the holiday period.

Having been forced to travel on most of the holidays during my trucking years I personaly choos to stay home on all holliday travel periods.

I dread the trip to Spearfish this year even though by car and not under the steering wheel BUT I want to go while I still cN ALMOST SEE .
