How many cops

How many cops?

Went to launch Light Speed on Saturday.  It was about 10:00am.

42nd street ramp on the Columbia River.  It doubles as a Sheriffs station.

Steep drop down off the dyke.  It was constructed after the Vanport flood.

The entire basin is regulated and we paid for the dams in Canada.

But I digress.

It takes 4 cops to watch (not help) a couple of people to launch a Cal 20.  They had their ticket books out and ready.  Kerry had made a cradle for the mast and we stepped it quickly and were away before they could ticket us.  Last I saw - 2 of them were running down the dyke.
