I am!
Three open water checkout dives Saturday, one Sunday, and we have our temporary c-cards. After we received our cards, they let us explore with the air we had left, and then gave us another full tank to burn.
My last dive, 6th of 6, with my brother-in-law as my buddy, was 45 minutes at 44 ft. of nothing but checking stuff out.
Here are two links (taken from frames pages) to photos of the quarry and it's attractions.

Big catfish, Largemouth & Striped Bass, Bluegill, & Carp.
The F-4 Phantom fighter jet was cool. I didn't imagine them being so large.
Of the few sites we visited, the silo was my favorite.
It's awesome being inside it at the bottom looking up.
It seems so damn.....monolithic!
We looked at each other and blew laughter through our regulators when we came to the truck. It's rather anticlimactic to find a pickup truck, not even a full-size truck, appear at the end of a bottom navigation line.
I can only imagine how awsome warm water ocean diving will be........
My left ear is stubborn about equalizing, but nothing that a 2 to 4 ft. ascend and blow a bit harder doesn't fix.
The dive shop sold me 22lbs worth of soft weight pouches. Buoyancy is good using 14lbs of them with a 5mm full in fresh water.
I love diving!
