OK Guys, I really would like someone else to give her a shot so after I get a winner on this one I'm going to bow out for a few days.

Name this body of water:

let's see... it's so darn familar! Looking east toward the Cascades? medium-sized river... thinking Stilliguamish... but to be fair on these river guesses we should say where on the river, at least when there is a clear landmark like this bridge... total guess now - Jordan Road bridge.

The photo was taken looking almost due south and upriver.
