“Not today,” whispered Mother Nature.

Or maybe she howled it.

Morton-White Pass made it as far as the Port Townsend ferry Saturday, before being turned around by a windstorm which eventually left all of Whidbey Island in the dark for the better part of a day, denying the Timberwolves a chance to play four basketball games with Coupeville.

The two schools hope to reschedule the non-conference clashes, said CHS Athletic Director Brad Sherman.

And for gas stat addicts out there, Morton to Port Townsend is 137 miles one way, giving the visitors plenty of time to enjoy bumpin’ across the backroads of America on a windy weekend day.
