Re: SMB Sightings
More regional dialect...
Up here in Humboldt County, folks going to San Francisco might say, "I'm taking the 101 to The City."
But they might also just say, "I'm going down below."

When I moved to Michigan from SoCal, I was told to "just get on the e-way and you'll be there in no time." Huh? E-way: expressway. No one knows what I mean when I say "freeway."
I'll undergo another cultural adjustment when we move back west: in SoCal it's okay to say "the 5" but in WA State, I will have to simply refer to it as "5." Constant jabs from my Seattle-based uncle will correct me of the the habit.

Re: SMB Sightings
That might save about a hour. Like taking the 5n to the 91w to the 605n then back on the 5n will save a good 45 min and it's what 10 miles

Hey, I posted my sighting. I was rather disappointed to only see ONE SMB while I was in King, Pierce, Kitsap, Whatcom, Skagit and Snohomish Counties. ONE! Everyone must have been exploring in the beautiful weather the NW was enjoying this summer.
