Boating
Coast Guard Auxiliary
Ongoing
U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary Des Moines Flotilla No. 32 regularly offers Boating Safety and Seamanship courses at Mount Rainier High School.
They cover the full range of boating safety subjects, including federal requirements, basic piloting, marlin spike, seamanship and boat handling.
The instruction is free, although there is a nominal fee for the student text and work books.
At 6:45 p.m., driving home from work the traffic was worse than usual, due in part to some stoplight malfunction.
The wind and rain was gusting a little and didn't seem all that bad, but as soon as I turned off of Military Road and onto my street, the houses looked deserted and hauntingly dark.
