    Adventure Racing - Off Topic And Of Minor Interest Only

    Wow. I've done backpacking where you read / navigate by a map, but I wasn't in a hurry, and nobody was chasing me. Sounds like a lot of fun, though. Good luck!

    Armchair Diver Specialty

    It can't be DIR. I don't specify what sport team to cheer for, what sport to watch, what hand to hold the remote in, what type of nacho cheese to use, or, more importantly what type of beer, er, 12 oz weights to use. I think it's closer to the DIMWIT. Just be cautious you don't fall into...

    Roll CALL!!!!!!

    I'll probably arrive Friday afternoon (my guess is around 4 or so). I want to get through the Dallas traffic prior to rush hour.

    Lake Mineral Wells

    If salmon can be a color and a fish, then murk can be a color.

    Draft DIMWIT Manual

    Excellent! I've built a few of those, so maybe you can share some techniques to provide a better diving opportunity during the construction of said "dive park". Unfortunately, I left the South Plains area shortly after getting certified, so I have not had the opportunity to dive a sandstorm...

    Lake Mineral Wells

    Can you really call a swamper true-"blue"? :) I'm not an official Swamper yet, but maybe by the end of June I can put that notch on my belt...

    Lake Mineral Wells

    I was out at Mineral Wells a couple weeks ago, and was wondering if anybody dove out there? I didn't get a chance to go out (or under) the water, but it looked as interesting as any of the other lakes from the shore! :)

    Draft DIMWIT Manual

    I'd like to take the stock tank speciality. Is it "natural" stock tanks, or does it include man-made (i.e. well fed, windmill, etc)? What about metal stock tanks? Or Concrete? I'm originally from the Amarillo / Lubbock area, so what about diving in stock tanks during a sand storm? Geez, the...

    Roll CALL!!!!!!

    Thanks. My best guess was Diving In Murky Waters In Texas, but I thought that was too generous given some of the visibiilty levels. :)

    Roll CALL!!!!!!

    Okay, I'm scared to de-rail this thread, but could somebody point me back to the original DIMWIT thread? I've been trying to figure out the acronym for the last couple of days. Back on topic, I'll probably show up late PM on Friday. My goal will be to make it past Dallas prior to rush hour...

    Roll CALL!!!!!!

    I just got my kitchen pass for at least Friday night. And I may ask for forgiveness on Sunday if I accidentally stay out there! :) Looking forward to meeting everybody!

    TSDT Summer Fling

    I voted for CSSP on June 7-8. I'm looking forward to meeting some folks and becoming an official "Swamper." (Well, as official Swamper as you can get with your inauguration dive at CSSP!) :)

    Which dive shop to use in Ft. Worth?

    I've always had really good luck and service with Lone Star on Alta Mere. They have a decent selection of stuff, and my wife got here certification through there and they were very patient and professional. I keep wanting to go on their trips, but the opportunity hasn't presented itself yet.

    Just had lunch with...

    I'd like to make my first official swamper dive with something like this. It's hard for me to do the last minute trip, but if I know the date I can probably squeeze a kitchen pass. I like CSSP, Athens, or if its an overnighter, I like the Blue Lagoon in Huntsville. There's a state park near...
