Roll Call for all Mid-Atlantic Bottom Feeders

[Doc Intrepid]

I'm heading down to Rawlings this weekend if anyone will be there. Look for the ridiculously over-equipped types heading down to the dock looking like they're dropping onto the Titanic.

A dive buddy of mine is working up to a cave course, and I'm going to be the evil training demon who will make his dives interesting.

Hope to see some of you down there.

Do you mean Millbrook? I am diving there on the 8th (and maybe on the 9th as well). The Dive Shop (in fairfax-the shop that owns millbrook) organized "fun dives" there every sunday where they provide a divemaster and buddy-up the singles. So I might check that out.

Yeah, sorry...Millbrook...drop me a line when you confirm plans. If you need some people to splash with we'll be happy to have ya! If not, just say hello!

Just got back from Mt. Storm. If anyone is interested the water is about 86F and viz is around 10'. We were the only ones there so the bottom wasn't stirred up, viz was as good as it could have been.

I was also at Summersville Lake yesterday and the surface temps were about 76F and the viz about 10'. Had the whole lake to ourselves, not even much boat traffic. I would think more people would be trying to get the last few warm days in but I'm not complaining, it was nice.

So the temps are dropping at Storm. Last weekend we had 95 at the surface and 88 at the 90. Just wore a skin. Going down next weekend to assist with checkouts. Might bring the polartech and throw the 5 mil in for stuff and giggles. Got 8 students so that's going to mean 2 groups and around 16 or so dives for the weekend plus any fun stuff I'd like to do. May do a night dive.

Hey gang.

Clear Blue and I and many other folks from the dive shop will be at Summersville Lake on Sat 22 Sept around 9am for a day of diving. We will be at the winter boat ramp. Come out and join us.
