It's raining here :(

However, I finished my Spring Break trip, and while I saw no other MG's 
on the road, it was still a good trip.

1200 miles, and only half of them on the interstate system.  Too bad a 
good deal of those miles were trips to Tacoma for repair work. (really 
quickly hacked up map showing the roundtrip at 
http://www.wsu.edu/~aaronpw/MG/images/trip.jpeg )

For those of you in Eastern Washington or Oregon, WA 14 from McNary Dam 
to Vancouver is actually a decent road.  Not enough corners and traffic 
is too heavy in the only real twisty bits, but a very relaxing drive.  
A stop at Maryhill for Stonehenge and the Museum of Art is a must!

Unfortunately, there was blue sky in front of me for the entire trip 
west (all the way to Astoria), but I got nothing but rain.  At least 
the trip back to Pullman was partially topless.
