Thanks for the valuable information, Larry!

Hi Chris and all,

I-5 southbound has a bridge repair crew working with one lane closed just north of Woodland.  The resulting back up is monumental at times.  I suggest that anyone who might benefit by using the Longview bridge to connect to hywy 30 into Portland for their return trip would avoid the 5 mile or longer backup that I experienced Friday. 

Have a blast on the water.
