What a great time, thanks everyone! Especially to Paula, Ber, and all the others for helping me with my first ever drysuit experience! Wish I could have stayed longer, next time the husband doesn't come if he has to work that night. :no

While I certainly did not get an early start on Saturday, I did make it down to get a least one dive (and another today), before the feed bag was laid out.
Thanks so so much to everyone who brought the food and munchies (Denny the kielbasa was excellent), I will come much better prepared next time.
It was great meeting everybody and we do need to get the projector set-up in the Fall to see some "life size) midgets.

Terrible. :11: Nobody had any fun. Especially after the cork cracked and the whole quarry drained out.
You really had to be there!

Oh yeah, I've posted some my photos on facebook. Mostly underwater from my second dive. I'm gonna get them on scuba board as well but this is a public facebook link you should all be able to view.
How was the M&G this year? I was too worn out after working today to get up there.
Following the Key rule of the M&G... All I will say is "a good time was had by all"
Hey Look, it's the "Brokeback Quary" brothers

I think the only "problem" with these mEAT and grEAT events is that I leave feeling like I've been to an all-you-can-eat buffet. I think that I'm going to bring a cooler and some MILK next time to go with all the cookies and cheesecake. (and perhaps for the salsa, too )
It was great to see everyone and I hope that I can make it in the fall. (Has anyone suggested a date yet? ;-) )
