This is a Pre-Run Event and may take a little longer to complete but it will have the same sights as we will be seeing in August.  You may want to take this drive if you are unavailable then.  

This weekend’s forecast appears to be Sunny with the high in the 70’s.  Based on this information, I will be driving a pre-run this weekend for the Chuckanut Drive/Anacortes Pre-Run and if anyone wants to join me, please email me at arbill@hotmail.com.  Meetup will be at the Safeway Parking Lot in Smokey Point, Arlington, WA at 9:00am and driver's meeting at 9:30am and leave at 9:45am.   This will be mostly a sightseeing drive to La Conner, a view point on Chuckanut Drive, and a park in Anacortes   The cities we are visiting are La Conner, Edison, and Anacortes.  There will be three bathroom stops with a Gas Stop.  We will have the opportunity to purchase at two locations baked goods and drinks (Safeway/Smokey Point and La Conner) while in transit to our final destination at the Island Cafe in Anacortes.  

Please bring a light jacket, sunglasses, camera, water, sunscreen, etc. as we will be near the water, in the sunshine and hills.  The drive with rest stops will take around 3 hours depending on the amount of time at each stop.  Traffic may be a factor, and we may have to adjust our drive.  If you have a State Discovery Pass or equivalent, bring it too.  It is not needed but we may stop at a State Park for a restroom break.  We will see you there! 

Ends at:  Island Cafe serves Breakfast and Lunch with air conditioning in Anacortes.
