Thanks, Lou Ann & Paul, for the party - lovely afternoon
Join us on Saturday for a walk - Meeting at 7:30 am, the Corning couple needs to do 18 kms and the Scotia group needs to do 14 km. I suspect those who prefer to do less distance will be happy to meet at 8:00 am at Tim's. Sign in and let others know what your plans are.
Weekday distances are 8 and 10 kms for those training and the rest of us will endeavor to support you and do it with you (or not, as you see fit). Meet at Loblaws and Occasions for the evening walks. Dawn and Lou Ann organize the day time walks.
Best of luck to New Albany racers Ruth, Arlene, Margy and
Rainer as they head to Ohio!. Do us proud as I am sure you will!

Great pics, Susan! I think the one of Margy and me is just before she flipped me out of the floaty chair into the pool....gotta watch that girl! I won't be out this weekend, as I have my dragon boat regatta ('Go Flaming Dragons!'), but hope to be out next week.
I'm planning on doing the Cavan 10k; Rainer is right; those buttertarts are worth it!
Lovely photos, Susan! It was a great party!
I'll be out at 8 am for 6-8 km.
I won't be out this weekend, it was too bad we didn't have an after shot of Olwyn, it was pretty funny! Hope your nieces wedding was wonderful Olwyn.

I'll be out at 7:30 for approx. 10K
Sounds good Debbie, I'll be there at 8:00 for 6-8.
Sheila
I will be out tomorrow at 7:30 for 14k. Bringing Eileen and Dawn with me, though Dawn is planning on doing a shorter distance with the 8:00 crowd.
I'll be out - not sure if I'll be walking or just enjoying company and coffee. TBD
Susan
I'll be out tomorrow at 7:30.
SKJ
I will be out tomorrow at 8 for 6-8. Welcome back, Debbie!
If the rain does not let up, I just might have to stay indoors.
SKJ
Not walking in the rain, may just walk later if the rain stops, or try Sunday morning.
Leverne
Anyone considering walking Sunday instead?
Not too keen on the rain....will see what 8am brings
Agree with Leverne, tomorrow, Sunday a better plan.
Frances
We've rescheduled our 18k for Sunday, same time, same place.
Going back to bed, too nasty out there!
I'l be out at Tim's 2 tomorrow, Sunday, at 8 am, if anyone wants to join me.
Oops, make that at 8 am at the usual Saturday Tim's, since others will be there as well.
I will be at the regular Tim's at 8 tomorrow for 6-8 with Debbie.
Bob and I will be at Tim's on Sunday for 18K at 7:30.
Hope to be at Loblaws for 8K on Monday.
A ssllooww 8k - everything hurts!!
Great - I'll see you all at Loblaws.
Susan
I managed to escape from the office early today so did my walk this afternoon in the sun and will not be out tonight.
Frances
Lynne and I will be at loblaws at 8
Leverne
Planning on being out Wednesday at Occasions. It is of course weather dependent - current forecast not so hot. I will confirm by 6 (have to leave by 6:15 to get there by 7)
Wow. Big rains and winds forecast for Wednesday evening. I prefer to walk tonight, but if the rains do come, is anyone interested in walking on Thursday evening instead? Just sounding you out now.
I'm up for walking tomorrow evening if it's raining tonight.
Lynne
checking the weather radar, it looks like a big storm front moving in tonight around 5-5:30, so I'm all for walking tomorrow.
Leverne
I'm going to walk home from work tonight (8k), and hopefully beat the rain; but will be out on Saturday morning at Tim's. Feel like I've been out of the loop for way too long!
I plan to walk tonight weather permitting. Unfortunately I can't do Thurs.
I am retracting my statement and staying home tonight. Good luck with your walk Olwyn! See you all saturday morning.
Well, it's official - I won't be walking tonight :)
Ray is at Alan's in the west end and he says it's pouring there so probably heading our way. I can walk tomorrow night if it doesn't clear up tonight.
Okay, so Thursday evening it is. See you at 7 at Occasions. Don't get blown away by the storm tonight!
Might have to break out the long sleeves. Still hoping to walk on Thursday evening. Anyone else?
