Looks like she ran though it right when it was bad too.

 I was halfway expecting to see her drop down 18 to Auburn.

Kingston it is. Found some web cams we might catch her on. She will be loading at Edmonds. Looks like the ferry isn't there yet. She may well catch the next one.

Edit: it loaded and her last spot showed her in line....she may have made it.

She's got a buddy shipping a loaner to her Hubby to load all her routes in......that's the pisser, she had it all set up for the return routes. Who steals GPS"s anymore? They are so cheap these days (except the 550 :_) ) and everyone has them on their phones, fer Crissake.

Thieves suck. Should be legal to shoot them.

They are over @ ADVRider. She can't log on here while on the road. Somethin' about total password amnesia....
