Kevin, Plan your trip around the I-5 mess carefully. Right now traffic seems to be flowing, but I suspect cars are not on the road. That should change once everybody learns how little traffic there is. Could grind to a halt by Friday. Not sure 405 will be a better choice. Might try 99 around seattle. I hear 101 is a nice drive.
