Hey Derek, hope you are feet dry. Here in Olympia, it's been another story, and speaking of the stories, here is some video footage from KIRO 7, one of our Seattle TV stations. http://www.kirotv.com/video/14773350/index.html

I have coffee with the maintenance manager at the LOTT plant mentioned in the video. He was hotter then you know what about that video about 'raw sewage' being dumped into the sound. He said it was stormwater runoff only and it did go thru the UV something or other process. Something like 53 million gallons went thru the plant in the first 12 hours or so of the storm.

Other then work shop flooded (again) we are okay.

Still a drop in the bucket compared to Katrina

Doug, you would play hell getting to her, would have to go via tri-cities right now or maybe up the coast except 8 is closed and not sure about 101. do you have a helicopter?

She says, she can get around on "Old Military Road", Hill top roads just to the west that Truckers cannot take, and that I-5 is closed about 3mi to the north. Apparently, there is no traffic jam. (Bill)

Yeah, the water is going down, but I still have a longer than normal drive around a bridge that is still out. Here's a couple pictures taken by some coworkers, for your viewing pleasure. Note: The river is normally about 1/4 mile away from the road!
