Thanks for the Banner Pete

Hi gang sorry for not posting more in this event but I been busy with another event you may have seen or heard about.

We are 29 days from Megadive and I just got GALAXY dive material
Can you say

I'M GETTING EXCITIED!!!!​

Lets make this the biggest and best MegaDive yet!!!!!
Remember that Ginnie Spring is giving us a 10% discount on camping and diving but you must tell them you are there for the event.

Congrats on the new Job Ken, bummer on your lack of attendance...looks like I'll have to recruit some help for the planned 'pranks'...wait, what pranks, that's crazy talk...'random, completely unplanned events..which no one can be blamed for...except the otters.'

But seriously Ken, you have to show, even if for a little bit. Without my dive buddy somebody might try to convert me to the dark side. I hear they have cookies. With spare cookies for redundancy.

MAJOR CHANGES!!!! I have a new job which unfortunately kills my megadive attendance! I work Friday evening to late, and Saturday midday. I may have Holly and kids come out with me Saturday morning, leaving them onsite while I setup camp for the night and head in to work. Then I'll be back after dark for festivities. Sunday I am off work so I'll be there for Brekkie possibly both days.

CONGRATS on the job
I hope things will workout and the MegaDive gods allow you more time,

FYI-Eggs cooked in a bag are closer to "sous-vide" eggs than an omelet.
Cancer anyone?


The trips sounds like a good time(Minus the eggs.).
Wish I could go.

We are well aware of this issue and thats why we use the correct baggies.

To bad you can't make this event, it's always a blast and leaves me counting the days until the next gathering.

WARNING! OXYGEN CAUSES CANCER IN LAB RATS! My schedule may actually cause me to get back to camp later than 8pm. I will be there for a short while in the morning, then back at night, for the night. Sunday seems like it will be my day this year.

Sounds like a lot of time for night dives though.
