Decided to throw caution to the wind and go Dive Morrison's even though it has just fallen under the "Safe" Bacteria Levels! I picked up my buddy at 10:00 and headed East down I-10 and with all the conversations and stories it wasn't long before we were pulling into the parking lot. A cursory inspection left little doubt that the water was still very high. In fact it's just below the steps to the Pavilion, and even though the water was clear in the area which was the old boat launch it was murky as Heck in the entire basin. But we were both eager to get wet and by 12:12 we were in the water. As we could tell from the surface, the viz was only about 5-10 feet in the basin but in the bowl it was much clearer at about 40 feet and at the cavern entrance it was unlimited. We spent 45 minutes in the water on the first dive and only 30 only the second. We showed a min temp of 68*. The park was looking clean and we saw no issues in the bathrooms (Except someone has smashed the deodorizer off the wall) and we saw no snakes or gators! A nice day of diving albeit short, but always worth the trip.
