What up homies?! I want to teach a friend to paddle this weekend, is anyone interested in helping?  I'm thinking maybe the Sky or something eazy pezy - he needs to learn how to roll.

Well, they are closing 405 for the weekend and the president is coming for dinner at the Gates house on Sunday, and it's going to rain. So, I would expect the worst traffic day imaginable known to man on Sunday....I think I will just stay home and do stuff around the house on SUnday and not add to all the problems that are going to happen on the road.
Our traffic sucks! And so do the politicians who designed it all!!! Bunch of stupid losers!!!! ------------- Nomad |

Hard to say exactly when the 405 will be closed, but it appears that there will be at least some closures.
Here's a good link for Seattle area traffic info. http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/traffic/seattle/ Stupid hyperlinks. I'm in for Saturday. Probably more or less on Courtney's schedule. I'll bring tomatoes. |

I would like to take my friend who is a beginner paddler down the Sky, but given the concerns about traffic on Sunday would prefer to do this on Saturday. Anyone interested in a easy paddle down from Split rock on Saturday ? |

I'm going to try to do Cable Drop to Big Eddy, meeting at Big Eddy at 10. It would be easy to hook up with the 12:30 crowd at Split Rock.
If the newbies are pretty new... and you like them... you may want to allow them to put on below the RR Drop.
