[QUOTE="Kathie in Thorp, post: 1163288, member: 16769"] Once a year, there is some sort of loosely-organized via FB EPIC FLOAT on the Yakima RIver. This year, 4,500+ people putting into the Yakima River just south of Cle Elum on a narrow state hwy. bridge . . . Well, they all want to get in at the bridge, but backed up for along ways. We went through on our way to a BBQ at about 11:30 AM today in 1st and 2nd gear -- People and cars and float equipment in the road, garbage already accumulating on the road. State troopers and County mounties just starting to arrive. The organizers had nothing set up for crowd control or parking. Some guy was across the white line into the road when I went through; did a big stretch with his arms and got whacked by my side mirror on the Dodge, but he wasn't jumping and screaming after I went through -- he did move off the road, though. Wished 2 or 3 more would've been that stupid. There is trash for 15 miles or more down the river now. They are asking for volunteers to pick up the trash. County will pay for extra law enforcement, and as citations and violations come in (ya think there was any beer or MJ there?), we'll also pick up the court costs and public defender costs. Argghhhhhh. Am I just to old to understand? [/QUOTE]
