I just wanted to wish all of my friends on this forum, near and far, a Happy Thanksgiving. For some, the holiday is difficult time; for others, it is a time of happiness. No matter what, there is something for what we can be all thankful. We are all fortunate to have the friends we electronically find here. Maybe a little crazy at times ... but likeable in many ways!
Regards,
Mark

I too am thankful to all my efriends, from whom I've learned so much. I originally joined this forum to learn about Masters clubs because I wanted to start one in the town where I live. I quickly found acceptance and a willingness to share knowledge and experience without an expectation of anything in return. That is a measure of true friendship. Masters swimmers are a unique bunch of folks (lol is it a permanent endorphine high that makes us so amenable?) Like all friends, we have, at times, differed in opinions. The differences though has made us more aware of the depth of commitment the other feels. Understanding and acceptance is also a measure of true friendship. I hope all here have a great (and wet, if the pool is open) Thanksgiving. Now get out there and swim off all those extra calories.
