Death to all Noodlers!

I have found an effective way to avoid the noodlers at my place. Go to the outdoor pool and swim laps there, if you have that available to you. The noodlers here won't go anywhere near outside. Sure you have to deal with the kids, but they are a LOT less obnoxious than noodlers. I may have one swim across my lane once in a while, but that's it. Good luck on your battle Elaine. Let me know, if you need any Tennessee support. Thanks, Moody! The outside option doesn't work for me, though, because: 1. The pool and air temp. is even hotter outside than inside and I have heat intolerance issues that are medically (not psychologically) related. 2. Sun. See above, not to mention what it does to 48 year old skin. 3. The outdoor pool is 20 yards long and it messes me up on stroke count, not to mention the fact that I don't want to practice THAT many turns!
