I am still giggling about these suit types that hover over spreadsheets trying to "predict" future volume....LOL Think about it...just the nature of this biz.....like a spreadsheet can predict a machine will break down somewhere or a locomotive will blow a Gasket.....or faulty parts will be discovered needing to be replaced....gee whiz.....they might indicate what happened in the past but future...I'll stick to my magic 8 ball...its more reliable....LOL

I've delivered to all points out west, including all over the west coast. It's not for the faint of heart! It's best to have some sort of game plan going in, for the exact reason you stated .... "Where do I DH to from here!" :eek:

Simply put ..... I hope you got some extra cash going in so you could DH to Cali, if needed. You could easily be there for awhile. My recommendation ... head to Alki Beach. It's close enough to bid on whatever comes & you'll get to enjoy some great scenery!

Best of luck!

I'm in Tumwater right now; I can go back to Seattle or down to Portland. Peeps are fishing but nothing in the boat yet. OTOH, it's only 1115 PST, so all is not lost yet. The big decision I need to make is how far into Cali I need to go. Lodi is 722 from here, but is it far enough?
