Nothing is worse than having someone try to load you up with a bunch of their personal "stuff" at a political rally, so I've been thinking about how best to present any of my concerns to a candidate in such a way that it has a chance of being remembered.

I decided that if there was only one topic I could talk to Dino Rossi about tonight, and could use only one piece of paper to reinforce my point, this picture would be the one I choose. I printed this out, and I'm taking it with me to the Quay this evening, and will report back on how it goes.

For reference, the dark blue areas are the deepest, and you can see that there is severe scouring of the bridge piers on the downstream side that is deeper than the main navigation channel in the river. This picture scares the hell out of me every time I see it...

You mean the "REALLY" nice and deep hue Blue on the right side of the picture right in front of the "Quay" your going to be at tonight?

Shame on you tallying in front of the place where the river is scoured most and is really to fall down as fast as the Interstate bridges? Isn't that right in front of Boise Cascadia?
