I worked at Lower Granite for awhile. A lot of ex WSUers talk about that big party they used to have down on the river at the start of the school year. Can’t remember what they called it now and seems like I’ve heard they’ve put the kibash to it nowadays, but don’t know if that’s true. Most of my work was downstream of there at Lower Monumental and Ice Harbor dams. I liked working there back then, been awhile now.
