    based on the tree outside my office window getting absolutely shredded by the wind, i was expecting no less than 6 foot waves on the lake. but.. it was calm. really. more so than any regular day. kind of a let down. alas, evanston was in no danger.

    is it a rule that weather has to suck on thursdays? if it's not raining, i'll be at the beach. 6ish.
  13.  permalink
    yeah beach is on unless its raining cats and dogs. i brought the cones. ill be there 6ish also.
  14.  permalink
    i'll be there. i wouldn't want my poor attendance at thursday beach to indicate that i'd like to be kicked off my sandblast team without consultation - oh wait, too late.

    for all you doubters out there, the beach conditions last night were fantastic. little to no wind, great temperature, warm sand; beer.
  16.  permalink

  17.  permalink
    Yeah - no props to ultimate/casual... nor to gunder and beer... He makes it sound like we had a keg.
  18.  permalink
    yeah, beach, today. it is hot and windy as a mofo out there. i'm wearing my sand-repellant goggles. what, you didn't get yours in the promo bag at sandblast last year?

    what time do you guys play till? i gotta do a work out at 6 and i'll be done at 7. if you guys go to the breaka breaka..i might be able to stop by.

    wats the closest L line?
  20.  permalink
    its north ave beach right at the bridge over lsd. not super easy to get to by train. maybe red line to north and clybourn and then the bus? i usually bike.

    typically it goes til it gets too dark to play anymore but txt claire and see if were still there when you get done. it might be a hurricane and well be drinking someplace...
