Okay, so it wasn't the CEG, but I decided to go for a morning drive up to Bellingham yesterday and decided to take Chuckanut Drive on the way up.
Right where the twisties start, there's a restaurant on the west side of the road and cars were pulling out of the parking lot as I approached. Must have been at least 20 cars, mostly Subarus and at least one Mazda RX-7. I ended up 3rd to the last in line, with a stock Subaru Impreza and Outback behind me. They didn't like that, even though I was keeping up with the pack. I eventually let them pass, so they could join their group, but not after we had fun driving! There were few cars out, which made it nice and it was a great day for a drive, especially since my car is running good again.
It was a nice, fun, but short drive; I think I'd rather take Hwy. 20 east again. That was more fun for a longer drive.

It was another impromptu trip. I didn't know I was going up there until I was in Everett.

Hwy. 20, I would do that one again, but this time less stops. Sorry!

True enough!
Less drunks driving Merc 500SL's too.
Less accidental lane changes right in front of cops, right Llane?
And less peeing into rivers!
