Looks like a nice sunny day is in store for Saturday! The levels are
looking good for a double run also, so long as the Sultan doesn't go
below 400cfs. which river we start on is up for debate and I'm up for
anything! I don't think the Green will be up this weekend so I'm
committing to this trip for now. But if some miracle happens, then we
may consider the Green.

I think I'll join you on Saturday - let me know if anyone wants to carpool from down town.
This looks to be my 999th post

Leif, I'll take you up on that offer. Meet at the usual place? What time? You better do something special for your 1000th post...colors and a big font at the least.
Anybody else heading up from the Tacoma area?

Depending on who is carpooling with me, I'll probably make a stop in Seattle, and another at either the Kirkland or Bellevue P&R. What time do we need to get to the river? Trying to figure out which ferry I should be on... And... 1000th Post

Before this week I haven't swam in 4 years...
