I did this a few weeks ago and Dave is FIRST CLASS when it comes to the OWS. I was expecting to just swim from point A to point B but he gave us some drills and even helped me with my stroke.

Damn, there is so much to do this weekend! Fair park has some cool exhibits, Deep Ellum has a festival going on and now an OWS clinic. I need a dartboard and some darts to help me randomly select a venue.

I wish I could make it but I really need seat time on my bike. I feel much more confident in OW after the last few weeks swimming at Grapevine, but I would love to swim in a crowd before Sunday. Plus this is a long drive from work with the traffic.
