Well, it's not cold (55-60), and the long range weather guessers say more of the same (wet), so the Spyder is stored for the duration. From the looks of it, we won't see a flake of snow this year, but any travel will require pontoons and paddles… Well, that's the price of living where we do.

We're pretty well guaranteed to see many flakes this year!:gaah:

Silverton's not far, but not in "normal" travel patterns…. Most of the flooding is coastal and in the coast range.

This is shaping up to be the third year without a heavy freeze in the Valley. Last year had a great and long ski season tho...

I had a scheduled IFR check ride today - had to shoot three approaches to Hillsboro…. Bumpy, windy, wet, cold, steamed up windows….. and then we got in the plane...

You bet - keep in touch. We'll be doing a 2500 mile ride this summer (Sept). Here to Boise to Orofino to Sand Point to Salmon River to Sun Valley to Boise - home (to/from on 26, not 84). Let me know if you are interested.
