Venice Beach Dive Party!

[Knavey]

Anyone know a good website out there that breaks down all of the sharks teeth types that we might find as well as the fossilized ones?

I found about 50 teeth the other day, many are the same type, but there are probably about a dozen varieties in there and I am wondering what they all are!

Thanks

Well.. it would be here: http://www.venfl.com/shark.htm

But it looks like someone cleaned up the images directory of their server and accidentally removed them and/or did not change the webpage it was housed on.

(edited in note - I wrote an email asking if the teeth could be replaced )

I am going to try and put one together. hoping the rain thig was just for wendy lol. I was thinking about blue grotto i met a couple divers who have not been in a spring yet. Or maybe jenny we can camp there. I was thinking about the first weekend in sept what is that the 5th and 6th i think. Everyone let me know what you all think or better dates but i am going before then somewhere.

The 5/6 weekend seems like it could work for me. Anyone else? A Camping Weekend sounds like fun.

Is blue grotto near Ocala? A camping weekend sounds like loads of fun. As always, I would need a sitter...., and for camping-have tent, will travel.

I was thinking of doing a shore dive party down this way, most dates are ok with me. Anybody interested in doing a beach dive party on the east coast? Ft. Lauderdale area.

blue grotto is near Williston (about 25 min. from
Gainesville)....I am not sure if it would be
a good place to go on the weekend though...
all of us in the area do our OW checkout
dives there.....when I did mine there
was so many people we kept bumping
into each other and the visibility was shot.....
you may want to call and see if they
have any idea of how many groups will
be doing check out dives on the days you are thinking....

That weekend works for me and I can camp as well. Maybe we should start this in a new thread. That way everyone is aware of it. The last trip I did at Ginnie Springs went well.
