barb.j.enders Posted April 12 Report Posted April 12 I ran into a friend the other week. She is a member of the Prairie Canada Carvers Association http://prairiecanadacarvers.com/. They are having their annual competition/show this weekend. She talked me into submitting a couple of my intarsia pieces for judging. Dropped them (Dogwood Flowers and Angelfish) off last night. Pick up on Sunday. Unfortunately I won't be able to attend any part of the show due to another competition going on. For those that don't know, I am also a competitive synchronized swimmer and we have a major competition this weekend. ChelCass, MarieC, Dave Monk and 5 others 5 3 Quote

barb.j.enders Posted April 13 Author Report Posted April 13 Thank you all for the encouraging words. Here is a video of my swim. I am the one with the black suit and cap. It was not my best swim. I got turned around on one of the moves. I don't know where we placed, we didn't hang around. There was another team from Thunder Bay that included a 72 year old man.

jerry walters Posted April 13 Report Posted April 13 Thank you for sharing the video with us. Aso, you made it easy for us to pick you out telling us you were the one with the black swimsuit and black hat. I really liked the song you picked out for your routine. synchronized swimming is kinda like scrolling, if you make a mistake and don't tell anyone, "NO ONE KNOWS". Once again, CONGRATULATIONS!

Marg You know I have a large boat - right? This is a Carver 3607. Hubby doesn't like driving it so I am the main "captain". We boat on Lake of the Woods in NW Ontario.
