sorry about that...
i did most of my classes in the lake city, florida area. usually took about 30-45 minutes to drive out to the shop, "dive outpost," and a few minutes to get to whereever we were diving for the day. nice people at the dive shop, and the owner even has accomidations there if you'd like to save a few bucks!
while i've dove the cenotes in mexico, i never got any kind of certification, so had to go from cavern, intro to cave, apprentice cave, and then full cave! did it in all in 7 days, 17 dives...
i was taught by, "michael o'leary." really good and knowledgeable instructor! we butted heads a bit due to the fact that i trust my equipment, i dive my computer, and the cave divers there typically dive tables... i understood his rationale, but still trust my computers... if i can argue with someone and they'll still dive with me, they're the kind of diver i want diving with me!
we dove in peacock springs state park, through orange grove, peacock 1 & 3, traverse to olsen sink and back, and cow springs. i went through peanut restriction, nicholson tunnel, and on a different day, did little river.
i truly feel like the skills will be an asset to the ones i've already learned and i feel like i've got a new perspective on having to maintain really good bouyancy.
i would totally recommend the classes, even if you have to do only one at a time!
cheers!
