Not sure how many are following activities down at Bonneville dam this year, but the story I'm getting is absolutely hillarious....

the chinook count over the dam has been running less than 100 per day for the last few weeks when it should have been in the 3 and 4 thousands....

according to a story on one of the Seattle TV news stations last week the problem may be the barriers that were installed to keep the sea lions out of the locks........ apparently the barriers are keeping the chinook out also.................

no confirmation on this yet (e.g. via another similar story from a different source) but this might be something to watch for those who need a little extra entertainment to help them through the day......
