I agree with ya Aunty about NW Washington's awesome beauty! I guess Oregon's equalizer might be the the metro's close proximity to the Columbia Gorge(eous), and the unsurpased public beaches. It doesn't matter to me - I can go enjoy either place, and know they belong to all of us. No passports needed.

Dan:

You - 1 (lucky fish)
Me - 1 (unlucky 'would be' landed fish due to weak hook)
Both - should be ashamed of mentioning those embarrassing numbers!

See ya at F4?

Andy, you likely will be removing one 'V' from that boat name at F4. 350K springers coming thru, and 4/13 is peak timing - especially with the morning outgoing tide. Hope to get to meet ya there.
