Mike, A group from my marina are going on the trip thru the river gorge. Don't know if I can make it yet. If I go you are welcome to ride along. They leave 31st and come back Sunday. Anyone else from the group welcome.

Ed, Sure you can come. I figure it would take 4 years to get there,12,697 miles,$ 34,858.68 in fuel & oil. Then the same on the way back. Hopefully I can stay a week and visit and take a ride on your big M and do some crabing. Always wanted to go thru the Panama Canal.

OK, I'll put it on my calendar, lets see, I have to find a 2016 calendar first. Lots of Dungenness crab here, come and get some. They are a lot of fun to catch. Even the little kids like to catch them. Did real good on crab this summer and got salmon,halibut, shrimp, and red snapper too.So we had fun and got some good food, so putting gas in it didn't hurt so much.

Busia, Well, it looks like it will take me longer to get to you for the Tennessee fall color cruise. Our lock is broken . May be 3 weeks for repair. Traffic is backing up on the river as I write this. Chackagauma dam is the 2nd busiest dam in the river system. 2555 barges & 4500 boats a year use this lock.
