    Volunteers at the longhouse are stopping traffic for people to cross W Marginal. Be prepared to stop.

    Big traffic jam on southbound W Marginal, backed up from Longhouse most of the way back to Spokane. Worth picking a different route south from Admiral area if not headed to the Longhouse Gift Fair. 

Sorry, comment time is over.
