Ah Matt, I can always count on you for a chuckle, you're such a fungi. I know, I know... that's what she said.

There were 8 of us and I think half the group was diving dry. I was in 7mm which I can handle till it drops a few more degrees. My CLX450 needs new seals and I also still need undergarments. Not everyone gets the screaming package deal you scored on Cragislist Matt. :mooner:

Windy Point last Sunday: can now giant stride off platform as water is only about a foot below. Viz was terrible, 2-3 feet. Water temp 70 degrees. Richard has moved platforms deeper (35 & 65 feet) and installed new chains to them plus there are more lines run between features so you can still...

Yes - a lot of rain. Willow City near Fredericksburg is the rainfall leader over the past 24 hours with 6.38 inches (which means the Pedernales River should be rip-roaring by now) Lake Trav levels have risen 4 feet as of this morning and expected to rise 11 feet over the next few days but will...

never mind

Hello! Did you pay the extra fee for scuba equipment as well? Or just the extra baggage? Thanks, Cyndi

My favorite in town is Luna Blue... however this may not meet the requirements you mentioned above as they are not all inclusive nor right on the beach, they also dont have tv or telephone or a pool if all of those things are important to you. What they do have a great price, fantastic...

Hi Dan! We booked with them for a trip next year. Are you more worried about service and skills or aircraft maintenance? All of the above? We arent flying until May so wont be able to give you an opinion for a while..

Hi Larry, We used to book exclusively with Dive Mike for our yearly trip to the Yucatan and always had a great time. Very safe and great service provided. Last year (2007) we had a group of 7 that booked a cavern certification through them and had a good time again but they were going through...

We have used AAA for several years with no problem. Just had 6 tanks done in August for $12 each (including a plus hydro on one of them). Turnaround time was a few days. I also use them for fire sprinkler testing and have been happy with their service on all counts.

Got married on Isla Mujeres several years ago and loved it! We stayed at Villa Rolandi Villa Rolandi Rooms - Luxurious suites isla mujeres Hotel and got married on the beach -- it was wonderful, romantic, beautiful, comfortable, and they had absolutely delicious food to top it off. They picked...

I would guess Scubaland - since they are a DUI dealer now (the only one here in Austin?).

My shop has no problem with it. I DM in my BP/W and students ask about it often - I am more than happy to explain the differences and why I choose to use it. Most are impressed by the simplicity and streamlined design. My complete single tank rig cost under $500, the Scubapro Ladyhawk bc I...

I have some decent aerial shots of Windy Point and/or Mansfield dam... if you are interested let me know and I'll email them to you.

We dove with them in August 2007 - A group of 7 of us went and got cavern certified. At the time, the shop was in the process of changing hands back to Mike. The communication was patchy during the planning process and once we arrived the staff was sparse. Didnt look like they were doing much...

Dark Descent: Empress of Ireland by Kevin McMurray (same author as Deep Descent: Andrea Doria). and I just got Deep, Dark and Dangerous: On the Bottom with the Northwest Salvage Divers by Rebecca Harrison so I dont know if it's any good yet...

Some non-fiction I have enjoyed recently (listed in order of my preference): Caverns Measureless to Man by Sheck Exley Submerged: Adventures of Americas Elite Underwater Archeology Team by Daniel Lenihan Descent into Darkness: True Story of a Navy Diver by Commander Edward C Raymer The...

Might ease up there a bit folks... we all have questions and concerns on the time frame but until the instructor who made the decisions speaks up (and that may not happen), there is no reason to direct harsh comments to a fairly new diver that did the best she could with the information and...

The EMT's were quick, professional, and did everything they could to save him. The response was more than impressive, it was downright awesome. CPR and o2 started no more than 1 minute after his removal from the water and continued until he was taken away in the helo. It was quite a team effort...

Yay for me! Happy Birthday to me! Yes I am 34 again! ;0)
