I have a flag, and will bring it for sure.

West side it is.

I am going to a party the night before, so I will be the tired guy in the red car.

See you there!

We could also meet behind the lifeguard stand and do the east side first.

It is really nice with no current, it is hell with a strong current.

Let me know.
