holy schmoly tim ever since I met you I knew something wasn't quite right! That said- - yea ok I'll meet you! BUT BUT- - how would you feel about meeting in Florida Dec 9th'ish?!? I've taken a new position and have to be in Orlando December 13-17. I might just be able to start that...

remember always ask why... :-) glad all is going well- - hope we can get a dive in soon- - you doing anything the 29th or 30th? Part of why I thought the rec helium class would do you good- - not so much that I was expecting you to dive it right away (hugh, take the class to not dive...

hey Paul! Try calculating your gas consumption for 130', then factor in your wifes and a little bit of a "time adder" for if something bad does happen. If you look at it as a "worst case" (i.e. we were just about at our turn pressure and then all of a sudden XYZ happened did we have enough...

I'm bummed I can't make it. How about the 7th 8th for Sutton. Enough people we can rent a pontoon both days ! (might get more folks interested Brian & Paula if you'd write a small note about how nice Sutton was this weekend despite the rain - - shew had to say that before one of you...

Just in case anyone is interested.... Wolf Lake is exit 28 off of Interstate 77 and located about 2 miles away from the interstate- very convenient to get to, especially from the Marietta OH and/or Cambridge Oh area. Check in at the park office was very smooth- all done on a verbal-...

Anyone ever dive at Wolf Run Lake near cambridge Oh? Buddy and I are talking about checking it out as a place to do mid-week practice dives. Any experience with it or other places near it would certainly be appreciated! Dave **edited- - originally typed "wold Lake"... fat early...

I'd second Bob's wisdom... Last year I had to pick up some gear from a shop in Akron and then dragged my buddy up to Nelsons ledges because it was soo close. Though it was underwater, and though it was interesting to see the campers and "security" at nelsons I can't say that I'd ever do that...

are ya able to dive Friday 6/9? Gilboa area?!?

Thanks for the input Kris. Some time has passed and little bits of the story have changed, mostly for the good. I spoke with Dan and reread the old posts and if I'm understanding it correctly the temporary crown shouldn't add a threat, but there is a chance. Sort of like all things in life...

I keep picking up on your "theme" of being curious about the skills/knowledge and how and/or if it applies to recreational diving... From what I've seen and experienced much of the skills overlap to make you a better diver. The tech trained folks stir up the bottom less, seem to focus on the...

Had a corner of a molar splinter off over the weekend. The tooth has a couple of fillings and in the past few years has been very sensitive to cold liquids etc and was warned by the dentist that "one day" something like this would probably happen. I am particularly concerned because it is a...

likewise- - sorry we didn't get to talk more during the intervals but more so to read about the accident- - very glad that you are writing it (i.e. you are ok). yikes! ! ! mexican... we should have gone for mexican...

I think we are going to be pushing for every second of time... that's my guess at least. Yes Charlie and Kristi are coming up- - or that was the last I heard. Last plan was they were coming up for the drysuits on Saturday and then heading to Portage on Sunday. Hmmm just thinking about...

mapquest brings it right up for me- - use Gibsonburg OH for the city state and white star for the location. It will probably suggest something like white star s.p. go with it..

I'm going to be up there, but have to miss the dry suit portion this year (taking a class). Sort of a bummer really, now that I've been diving a particular model a few times, I'd really like to do it again to really compare things (thickness of undies in particular). All in due time I...

Just in case... DUI has a really nice event called "dog days". They pretty much tour the country with a truck load of drysuits, & underwear. Check out their web site for more specific details. June 3rd and 4th they are going to be at Gilboa. Cost to participate with them is something...

THANKS again ! Had a great time diving w/ you and meeting everyone else! Great to meet some of the new folks and get to get under water. where ohhh where did all that last minute rain come from?!? :-) Sorry it chased all of us so quickly, but alas such is life! Dave

pm sent... ya serious... gotta watch out I take people up on these offers :D

last minute changes to plans that have freed up Saturday for diving... Anyone interested in diving at gilboa this weekend 5/13? I'd be game for almost anything. I'd love to focus on some general practice stuff like valve drills, OOA, ascents descents etc but will be happy just to get...

Hopefully you haven't been too baffled by all the posts! I usually don't write but feel as if I was in your shoes about a year ago (had just finished OW and felt that there was a whole lot to go, wasn't getting what I felt to be good answers from the LDS, read the book started to wonder etc)...
