Those of you who didn't get stickers can PM me your address and I will get one out to you. I was so busy meeting people and having fun I kinda forgot about the stickers DOH! I'm buried trying to get my parents house on the market so be patient with me :*)
What a great weekend! Perfect weather, great people, and a dive that while stressful from a lane shepherd standpoint for me turned out to be a good time! Mike would have had a cow if he had seen all the people diving instead of maintaining their position on their assigned line. Saw some small problems underwater including one girl choking bad enough she had to abort but she kept her cool. Had a few wandering down to touch the boat and some with buoyancy control issues but the dive still managed to go smoothly. Once you got under it was hard to tell where your lane was as a shepherd when people didn't stay on their assigned lines. Heck I lost my shepherd buddy immediately after spotting a diver with buoyancy issues at the start and it was 10 minutes until I found him. I cruised my lane and parts of the neighboring lanes after the vis dropped picking divers with good buoyancy control as my 'go to' diver if I had a problem until I found my buddy.
What a crazy but fun dive! I did take a couple minutes to pose for people wanting bunny ear photos LOL!
Thanks to everyone in my lane for being patient and good sports!
MARCO!
