‘Highway 20 Doggerel’

May 19, 2021 by Methow Valley News

By Sern Watt

In a hurry,

Feeling frisky?

This mountain road

Makes it risky.

Cell phones useless,

Until Newhalem (Mazama),

Best avoid highway mayhem (trauma).

Nearest ER hours away,

Once we learn you’ve gone astray.

Take it easy,

Enjoy the views,

Don’t be tomorrow’s

Obit news!
