Ginnie (or other caves) 12/4

[OneBrightGator]

Viz at Peacock today was about 30 in the cavern, getting better once you hit the Peanut tunnel and kept improving to about 60-70 all the way to Waterhole 3, after Waterhole 3 I cannot comment on...

And yes, that's right, I did go diving today

Some people are lucky enough to be able to get out in the day rather than work - you may find this in a few months :11:

So what are we thinking, Ginnie, Peacock or another? I am good with any of them. I need to be near Rennekers (sp?) to rent a wing (mine still in shop being replaced), but of course either location is fine I would like to know tomorrow so that i can let them know ahead of time. Pete, what do you think about sharing a ride up?

Well, Rennakers is by Peacock, way outta the way if you're going to Ginnie, but CE East might have them, give Rich a call tomorrow: 386-454-7511.

I'm down for either, but you know the deal!

It's also contingent on me getting my light to fire... which it didn't on the second dive...

ohhhh mannnn, apparently getting a :frosty: christmas tree, decorating and spending quality family time is taking precendence over :scubadive this weekend. (otherwise I would have come along and hung out in the cavern zone with jeandiver)... what has the world come too.

Guess I can't complain too much since I'm drysuit training in the pool next weekend and one of the springs the week after before getting back into Intro after Christmas.

Have fun and be safe.

Ben, looks like Pete is bowing out with other commitments. So seeing as you are a poor student it might be best to hit Peacock, i will have to get my tanks filled when we get there and of course rent that wing. Not sure what time is best though, i think its going to be a good 4 hours up there including fill stop, so might try to do a 10-11am arrival. can talk to you later tonight if you call. That would give us some time for a dive or two in the day. I havent done any of that spring beyond the cavern at P1, what depths are we thinking for the couple of tunnels leading off that area? From what i gather OG is in the 100ft range, thinking 32% will cover me either way. Let me know tonight if you can, probably wont be able to check the thread tonight or in the morning as the computer is in my roommate's room - he might be sleeping that early

I wont leave the house though tomorrow unless i either get a call from you Ben or have a chance to check the board to see if you replied (which wont be till late 10am when my roomie wakens).

I'll call you later, but it ain't lookin' good, my light won't arc, so...

I'll call Pete, see if i can borrow his from him - you never know, but i will have to check before making that a firm offer. You can always rent one???
