According to Russ Harvey at the County, it’s going to take some 400 trips to get the gravel the County needs from the barge landing at Jackson’s Beach to the County’s storage area on Beaverton Valley Road today & tomorrow.

This kinda reminded me that there’s already a town in Washington named Concrete, and another called Granite Falls; maybe we could change ours to Little Rock or something.

Maybe not. Just brainstorming.

Here’s the rest of the story.
