Nothing like getting back out into the water. (Maybe a little too soon for some people) But being able to get back in my scuba gear is relaxing.
The ice on the lake was great this year, with a solid 30" of clear ice and another 8" cap of brackish ice (pretty much compressed snow/ice mix; not overly strong) the water level was down about 30-45' from what we see in the summer, so we could head down for longer and stay within safe dive limits. The only real thing bringing most of us out of the water isn't so much running low on air as it is getting cold, even with all our layers on.
The only complaint from the weekend was that one of my dry gloves became a wet glove, so a very cold hand on today's dives.
I start my Dive Master program tomorrow, so I can work my way to becoming a dive instructor and help get more interested people into the water to see/enjoy what I get to.
I hope everyone has a good week.

Sounds like some of us are going to hit the lake at the end of the month....(assuming the ICE is thick enough) and get some diving in
Hopefully my physio gives me the green light to do something.

Happy New Year to all!
Hopefully the next year treats us well, and helps growth.

Nothing like a having some fun with the holidays

Finally got some time off work and I was able to get some diving in last weekend.
I'm looking forward to my Rescue diver course this coming weekend, should be something since they want to push all the divers to their limit then a little farther. I'm hoping its a good time and a great learning experience

Wow. That was dumb
Ran into this brunette on Friday, talked for a bit (before my supervisor broke the conversation up) and forgot to get the important information, like NAME or number or if she was single. Maybe it's due to how I usually assume that anybody that interesting is already taken, so I don't mind just talking to them, or I'm afraid of the answers I will get.
I just need to get my act in gear so I don't miss out again (especially when they have many of the same interests as me.)
Maybe I will run into her again, but i doubt it.
