Yay! We are in a silver Honda Accord.

Chris and I are still planning to come. We will be there Saturday afternoon. Looking forward to seeing you guys!

I haven't been diving in over a year; just had a beautiful baby girl 6 weeks ago. Made it back in the water at Lake 288 yesterday! Water was warm, visibility not bad for a TX lake. Saw a large white fish I didn't recognize plus a few boats and a bus. I'm hooked on diving all over again! :)

I haven't been on SB in ages and tonight decided to check it out, how nice to see divers I know and have missed! ChrisPete and I are back in TX after a 3 year hiatus but this round we are calling Houston home. We have a newborn girl who is 6 weeks old who already loves the sound of waves and...

I do believe it is a mayfly nymph. Good call, Dave! Brenden was able to get a picture so here it is!

Thanks everyone for posting your photos! We always love hanging out with the TSD!

Definitely not a tadpole. Probably is some kind of larvae but I wonder what kind? It's not mosquito larvae; they look like worms and never stop swimming. The coolest part about this critter is the three tails! I know I'm just a :dork2: who loves to ID stuff. :D

Can anyone ID the little critters who come out at night in Lake Travis? They are attracted to dive lights. I don't have a picture, but here is my best description: 1-2 cm long. When swimming it looks like a sperm with its roundish head and tail used as a paddle/ rudder. When they stop the...

Me and my husband, ChrisPete, are divers new to the Keys area. We're SB regulars and love the camaraderie of the scuba community! :crafty: We are good ol' Texas Swamp Divers living in the FL Keys at least for the next few months. We're loving it here and may become at least seasonal...

I keep my gear in either the back of a closed Jeep, or the bed of a truck, or sometimes out in full sun for weeks at a time, for years and have had no problems (we chain it down). I have never had a burst disc blow. Masks that warp its due to age, not sun. I'm sure wetsuits would probably...

I am interested in volunteering. PM sent.

When: 6:30 pm Friday August 6th Where: Scholz Garden 1607 San Jacinto, Austin, Texas 78701 What: dine, drink, and tell fish stories! Will you be there?

Scholz sounds good. It's very central and has conveniences such as seats and tables. And real food! :)

Looks like we'll do it on the 6th at 6:30/7ish at Sholtz. All divers and non-divers welcome!

Once upon a time but not too long ago Austin area divers would meet once a month for a social dinner which we called FEAST (Friday Evening Austin Swampers Treats). Sometimes lots of divers showed up and other times very few. It was fun to put faces to screen names and talk to other like-minded...

OOps, just saw that another guy recently asked about diving in the Charleston area. http://www.scubaboard.com/forums/deep-dixie-divers/341643-diving-south-carolina.html I'd be volunteering at Cape Romain so we have a limited budget. $150 for charters is pretty much out of our league. Is...

I'm considering a position in Cape Romain, SC (north of Charleston) for the summer of 2011. My spouse and I would be living in the area from May - Oct. What kind of diving is available in the area? How far will our typical drive to a dive site be? We enjoy ocean diving, shore diving, lake...

We just did some fuzzy math and it looks like we'll be in Austin from about the 3rd - 9th. How does a FEAST on the 6th sound? And we'll probably be out diving on the weekend!

Hi Swamp Divers! :wavey: Chris and I have been away from home for about a year now and believe it or not we are really missing that murky Lake Travis and all our dive friends too! We've dove in several states now but have not been able to find a dive community as open and friendly as Texas...
