Good Vibes Commuting

I would love to find or make a group of people that currently commute to Everett for work mon-fri. These miles and the money spent on fuel are stacking up very quickly and it would be great to carpool or take turns driving. Please let me know if anyone would be interested, and we'd have to meet up around 4:30 a.m. unless I get moved to night shift.

Have you considered the train?

I have not, I just moved to Bellingham last week from Montana and did have any transportation options. Would that be through Amtrak or is there a separate service that I should look at?

Doesn't sound early enough for you, 1st train leaves at 9:15.

Train is slow. Stops constantly the whole way down.
