I'd like to setup another OWS this Friday, May 15th at 7pm (maybe even make it a weekly thing, and once the weather get warmer and the days longer, we can add a bike or a run afterwards).  

Cedar Beach is a perfect location (sandy beach and you don't have to go very far out to get some good deep water)! 

Post if your available.

I should be there again this week. The swim on the weekend was not nearly as painful as I was expecting

In reference to my OWS it will mean Going 2 Gag.

I think Friday could work for me. Since it is Friday, I plan on bringing some "carb replacement" beverages to enjoy after the swim.

G2G - stands for get-to-gether, but I actually like Tim's version better! 

I found the swim as painful as expected.  But we are only 3 weeks away from Belle River and I cannot think that its going to get much warmer.  So, I guess we better just get used to it!  It's going to take me a few weeks to begin to 'enjoy' the swim.

Tim, the carb replacement sounds like a great idea! 

Jeff, the beach is really nice for kids to play.  Maybe I will bring my kids too (they are 9 and 12).  

Oh, for the newbies to the beach, there are bathrooms and change rooms on site (and a spot to wash the sand off your feet).

My kids are about the same age as Tabbs', so sometimes all 4 of them come and hang out on the beach while the parents suffer. Are we still thinking about a bike ride after?

I'm iffy on this one. I forgot about date night Embarassed and my husband has his heart set on seeing the new Star Trek movie. I'm trying to reorganize the weekend, but everything depends on having someone to watch the kidlets.

Where were you with this gift idea a week ago? I think she is going to rent for a few races. I am still fighting a cold so we are not going to make it out to the G2G on Friday.

Tracy, we will be at the essex pool one or two nights next week. I will let you know.

Have a good swim.

Hmm, the weather is now calling for rain tonight. I don't mind swimming and/or running in the rain as long as there's no thunder or lightning - but I don't want to be the only one! Is everyone else still planning to go?

I'm hitting the Tigers game tonight - so I'm out.  I will try to re-org my weeks if this is going to be a regular G2G!

I'll come and swim in the rain as long as its warm, but I won't be biking or running in the rain. There isn't really a good spot around there to run anyway.

Awesome! Are you from Amherstburg too? Sorry, I know someone is and I can't remember if it was you or not. If you are, do you want to meet at Holiday Beach instead? Just because it's a bit closer.

If you're not from the 'Burg, Cedar Beach is still good for me at 7pm!
