Had a good morning and afternoon diving Madison Quarry. First time there this year. Mostly cloudy sky with temps reaching 90. Surface temps were around 84 with the first noticeable thermocline around 17 feet with temps in the 70's. Second thermocline was a little more painful near 27 feet with temps ultimately registering at 57 degrees. Viz was at a respectable 10-15 on average. Some places, viz raised to what looked to be 20-25 feet. Somewhat of a surprise for the quarry.
Visited the large white cylinder, bridge, plane, truck, missile, cruise boat, upsidedown motor boat (new attraction?), Nasa simulator, and concrete house boat. Catfish wouldn't allow us to dive near them - they unfortunately kept their distance. Great seeing Britt and his family, and Lee and Diane Singer after over a year.
Big thank you to Britt and company for getting the quarry open again this year. They also have a "Scuba Snack" shack there where you can purchase sandwiches et. al. Great having that there. Won't have to pack a lunch next time.
