St. Anthony's Triathlon (Page 6)

I'm game for whatever you guys decide. Saturday I'll be with 2 possibly 4 friends.

I also volunteer to go to the Athlete's meeting.

As I said before I'm stayinmg at La Veranda and i don't think having a party there would be a good thing.

weather looks good this particular second....

Max temperature.....79-83.
Beach winds.........East winds 10 to 15 mph becoming northeast
                            around 10 mph in the afternoon.
Surf................1 to 2 feet.
Water condition.....A light chop.
Water temperature...71.  

Oh, my.... all this final get-together planning is making my stomach turn and making me all pukey-feeling. 

We're up for dinner one of the nights at least, as long as kids are welcome...  No swim/bike for us though on Saturday, since the munchkins are doing the Meek and Mighty.

Can't wait to put faces to names!!!!

My youngins are both doing M&M too!!  YEA KIDS!!!

I talked to a few folks...we may just try to do the swim sooooper early on Saturday, so that we can get some time in the aqua, then watch the M&M. 

The ride will likely be Friday afternoon.  And people can run on their own sched.

Jeff, you rock my world.  Count the Opkins' in for 4 at Dish.  Christine better bring her boys so they can sit with our kids.  We probably won't make the Friday night thing since we wont even start driving until 4:30 (MAYBE we'll be there by 8:30).  Not sure about Sunday aftermath either, since we gotta do the long haul home too.  Rick can we use your shower???  We didn't get in to La Veranda this year.

I"m bringing the boys.   Possum and betsy want to sit at the kids table.  

ummm... I DID get into LaV but they called the next day and say "sorry, I overbooked".... I wonder....

Claudie and I are arriving on Sat afternoon, so the two of us will be at DISH.  We were intially bringing the kids,  but my in-laws prefer to watch them at home....party for us!!!!

Can't wait ! 

HAH!  Possum and betsy may be whistling a different tune by the end of the night at THAT table!

NEWSFLASH!

OK peeps, this is not good news.  DISH IS CLOSED!!  I found out last night when I went to make the reservation.  It's GONE!  So...with four days to go, I need to find another place to eat on Saturday night.

KathyG made a suggestion last night that might work.  TooJay's on Saturday, and someplace different on Friday.  We could all meet at Baywalk at Wet Willie's (its the bar I was suggesting for the afterparty) Friday evening and then decide as a group where we'd want to go from there.  There are a few other restaurants in Baywalk that we could go to for Friday.  There is an Italian place, and I'd suggest this for the Saturday dinner but I do know a few of the athletes don't want just a pasta place, and there's Dan Marino's which can get expensive.  But there are other places around town that we can hit as well, probably in walking distance.  So we're gonna have to figure something out on the fly for Friday.  I'm gonna take a drive there on Wednesday night and make a list of all the places close to Baywalk that we can hit for Friday.  Anyway, TooJay's does have a diverse dinner menu so you can usually find something there that will suit your tastes.  Everything from lasagna to deli sandwiches...salads, soups, etc. 

I'D LOVE ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS TOO. I'm so sorry guys, I don't live anywhere near there so it was a complete surprise to me when I called for a reservation and got the ART GALLERY instead.  UGH!!! 

So...please chime in on this and I'll get a final count.  We don't need a res for TooJay's, we can order as we please and just hang around and eat at our leisure...so it may work out better in the long run.  Either way though, dinner is still on, and I'll make every effort to make it work.  My apologies for not knowing DISH was closed.  I feel AWFUL.

How DARE the dish go out of business on us???

Thanks Jeff for getting us organized....TooJays is a great alternative! 

OK so far here's what I have.  I'm sure I've got at least some of this wrong so correct me.

Friday - 630pm...Meet at WetWilly's bar at Baywalk and we'll figure out Friday dinner from there.  No idea on attendees.  We'll wait til 7 before we either go somewhere together or break up to do our own things.

Saturday - Meek and Mighty Tri.  I'll be down at the race venue watching the race.  BunnyRunner is doing the race so come cheer her on!

Saturday night - 6pm...TooJay's at Baywalk.  I'm gonna list who I have as definite and if I'm wrong or forgot you, please let me know!!

As far as an alternative for Friday, I'll post something Thursday morning as to what I find out on Wednesday on my drive thru of the area.

Gotcha!  I don't have a list going for Friday since we really don't have a plan for dinner, but we'll still be meeting up at Wet Willie's and going from there.  See ya Friday nite!
