Holy cow! A sunny weekend! (Let's Drive....)
I've been burred (moving) for 4 weekends in a row, and this is the first weekend I can pick a day and escape.... WooHoo!
Red an I are headed somewhere for a day, and I'm not sure she or I care which day, or what destination....
Lets get a few of our Jag brethren together to share some scenic routes!
Let's hear some fast votes if any want to join me....
Possible runs (suggestions welcome):
On the Peninsula side-
Pt Townsend, Ft Warden.
Hurricane Ridge *
Cape Flattery
Pt. Angeles, Crescent Lake area
On the South side-
Sunrise----- *
Ocean Shores
SatSop
Loop Rainier?*
Speak up! I'm gettin' behind the wheel, but well chained into behaving myself (No radar detector....grrrrr....) so this will be a casual drive for the scenery and friends (both new and old)....

*(I've not looked at elevated road conditions, but they just opened North Cascades, so most passes should be open?)

Out of town for the weekend otherwise I'd be all over this. It has been a miserable winter! So excited to see the sunny days again. I hope some of our members say yes to this! If you've never been on a Jaguar drive before, sign up! Clevername knows these roads better than anyone else out there.

Thanks Muddydog,
Sunday looks awesome weather-wise, but Saturday looks very comfortable as well.
I checked the highlands, and snow still holds those routes at bay..... So that leaves the Olympic Peninsula, or the coast? (coastal roads will probably be packed.). Back roads to Satsop would be an easy drive though.
Pt Townsend has its charms, and traffic would be minimal.

Anyhow, my drive is set for Sunday, starting at 11am. Marko has spoken up, and will meet me at the Naval Shipyard Parking lot here in Bremerton.

From there up to Pt Gamble (arrive about noon), and across the Hood Canal bridge to Pt Townsend.
I hope to do lunch in Pt Townsend around 1-ish.
Should be a light day overall
Plenty of back roads along the way. If anyone else joins in, be aware that Sunday Ferry traffic can have a extended wait returning to the Edmonds side.
PM me if you need more info.

We shall see.....
