Rinconada 2008

Hello babes!! Yes, it is true. These guys are going to be there just to cheer on Lane 6. Take a look at the spirit they are bringing with them!!

It 's Mike and his boys!! At the ever enchanting day in the pool known as Rinconada. True!!

Last year it was wonderfully sunny and a great time was had by all attendees!!
Today Ariel and Flipper received diving lessons from Rick. We splashed pretty well into the water from poolside and next week we are hoping to take off from the blocks!! We are looking eagerly forward to next Saturday's meet!

As a reminder, last year they had dynamite chocolate chip cookies and a fair collection of stylish threads to purchase there! Come along and enjoy the games, work on your tan and do some shopping too.
Ariel is looking forward to entering the novice class. Flipper will be flopping around in the non novice class hoping that by wearing very dark goggles no one will recognize the sea turtle that has dared to swim with the fast fish!!

We are debating which events to enter but hope to make a final decision next week with the help of rick who we are sure will have some good advice.
Swimming today was lots of fun with Ariel clocking a blistering 50 yds in 53 seconds and Flipper following suit with a 100 at 1:44.

So come ahead and cheer the home team. And oh yes, there are always the Olympic Club "ringers" to watch as well who will have you scratching your head over the true meaning of "amateur" and the distinction it has from "professional"...

Later babes!! see you there!
