I'm in Houston, TX. been here about a week now...

Would'nt you know it just after I gave up all hope and moved away, Joe cleans up the place and makes it hospitable for divers again. I might actually miss that place...

The KDFWR book contradicts itself. First it says skin diving or scuba diving is not permitted then turns around to give you spearfishing rules. I've been diving Laurel Lake for years and as long as you tow a dive flag there your OK. In fact I've had a friendly conversation with the game warden...

I'd say Face book has a little to do with it but it's not the only reason things have been quiet around here. The fact that we've lost most of our local diving is probably the biggest reason. Joe's has become a hangout for the non diving party community, Waldron Blue Springs has had some kind...

I got a Flip HD Ultra Video camera and an Ikelite housing for Christmas. We're heading down to Ginnie Springs this weekend to try it out. :D

Click on the link, its a pretty entertaining read. I guess the party has gained a little unwanted attention...

An anonymous source sent me this link this morning. Seems like it's really gotten out of control. :shocked2: Clarks Quarry LaGrange - Topix

I'm with ya. I actually live in LaGrange and I'm looking at a drive to get to somewhere to dive myself. Pennyroyal is a nice place with air fills and even some dive supplies. The drive is about the same for us as well. I tried Blue Springs last weekend and the gate was locked, YMMV but I'd go...

I don't even know who Rick is? It's either open or it's not!

When I got there this afternoon after a two+ hour drive it had a padlock on the gate. Looked closed to me...

I should have known better but I needed to go diving so I got up this morning, loaded up our scuba gear and made the two hour + drive to Blue Springs. What did I find when I got there? A locked friggin gate! I could care less who's right or wrong and I don't even know either side but the damn...

Do you know if he is reserving the pavillions for divers or is it strictly first come first served for everyone?

I will for sure! We're going to try to plan a weekend out that way in a few weeks.

Thanks for the update Dwight. Unfortunately that's pretty much what I expected to hear though. Damn shame for me because it's literally right in my back yard. I cannot even imagine 1000 people in that quarry! :shakehead: I guess I'll just have to burn a little gas to go diving this year...

I haven't been diving yet this year! Everything but Joe's is such a long drive I've just not had the time. I was hoping someone would report back that it wasn't too bad! ;)

What are the conditions so far this year?

That's interesting. What do they treat the water with?

Just checked the BS website, 57 deg. at the surface and 46 at depth. Hope the seals on my drysuit hold out! I should have replaced em last year...

Any way you could do BS or Joe's this weekend? The only thing I could do during the week is Joe's and even then I would'nt be able to get there till 4:30 and that would barely be enough time for one dive. Next weekend I'm off the 27th thru 30th but thats cutting it close for you...

Been fighting a cold this week but I been thinking it's about time to get back in the water. I'd like to go up and see what's going on at Blue Springs.
