Well, you know how the media is, they said Boeing was looking at an additional 10% next year unless the economy changes this year. The media gave a number of 20,000 for the 2 yr period, but what do they know and I certainly don't know, so I'll just keep my mouth zipped

I'm not in the loop, I only see what is publically announced. Generally I read it in the media, I just hadn't come across the 10% number yet. No need to keep quiet, I'm just as interested in what gets announced.

8:00am Breakfast
Pattys Egg Nest
Staging area around 9:30am
Finish riding around 3:00pm

I don't know how long it takes to get from Pattys to the staging area, I'm just guessing, figuring about 5 hrs of riding [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] Good Morning PSAR! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Yikes, more layoffs in Seattle? Hope they miss all you folks. What amazes me is I've heard nothing of the City, County or State laying anyone off. Seems like there would be some cutbacks if the taxes are slowing down.

Guess I'll be in Seattle next sunday to pick up the last load of stuff I have to haul down to the farm. Finally, the move will be done. Wish everyone could make up their minds what belongs where. One bedroom set came down here and then went back up there. Cripes, bad enough when SWMBO can't decide which side of the living room the couch should be on.

Shooting match today with a fellow who apparently is the best shot in the world. Subject came up over coffee yesterday and this dude, who has been in the area just under a year, made some rash statements. We'll see how it works out.

Time for coffee with opinionated old _arts like Bing and Rod.

Mike
