WOW I can’t wait! Can you imagine the drinking now? And finally I get to take a proper nap. Will hammocks be available or can I continue to take up the space of 6? I just hope that they put one of those Ben Hur “pointy things” on the bow in case we strike an oil tanker…

I cringe at the thought of all of that filthy CO2 being generated by the diesel engines of these awful ferry boats doing their new routes. I suggest the answer is to go back to the multi-oar powered boats from a by gone age. We bring in prisoners from Walla Walla and put them to work. We could force them to breath into re-breathers and reduce their exhaling carbon footprint!

All joking aside, this about looks like my driveway where I’m trying to build my house. I have “sensitive areas” that I have to avoid, and my driveway went from 510′ to 1090′ to serpentine my wy around the sensitive areas!

I’m a little confused on the need to avoid the Seagull zones. If I recall correctly from 3rd grade Seagulls are birds. Is the DOT developing flying ferries? About stinking time, water is for losers.

This is the silliest thing I ever heard of. This is another example of state government going astray. I expect to hear this on the Dori Monson show on monday.
Good Grief!

Maybe the DOT could drum up some more income by offering cubicle rental on the ferry…

Who wouldn’t love a leisurely three hour and fifteen minute boat ride to work? Beats sitting in a cubicle – it’s a win/win situation!

I think they’ll soon move to something like this down in the SF Bay area as well. Way too much sensitive wildlife down here…

I’m so glad they are reverting from baby seal oil to conventional motor oil. Phew! I’ve been doing marches down here in Marin County for months that specifically the Washington State DOT would change their routes. I’m glad somebody finally noticed (and didn’t throw an expensive drink on me)…
