I'm 32 years old on paper... 21 years old and still cranking based on how I feel!!!..... (I picked 21 because the novelty of being the legal drinking age has worn off... :out:)

I cant remember what brand mine is... but it is basically a heavy duty mesh/vinyl/nylon duffel back with shoulder straps. I can put every ounce of my dive gear in it (minus the tanks), as well as a big towel, and a few other items (camera, etc.). The mesh part allows ventilation for the wet...

Sorry Dee... I guess I got a little lazy in my information quest. I didnt take your response as snippy... you are right, I should have used the search first... ;) Ruu - I will check around and see what I can come up with. Thanks for the info. DrSteve - Hopefully if I find a filter it...

LOL :D That is one way around it... heh heh

Aaaaahh.. to have a girlfriend that loved to do at least one or two of the things I do as much as I do. The ones I have had took no interest in the scuba, mountain biking, motorcycles, or anything else. There was this one that liked to fish, but her idea of fishing and mine where two different...

I have an Olympus C4040 with a PT-010 U/W housing. I have used it a couple times, so I am still trying to get used to setting it up properly for taking pictures while diving. Most pics that I have taken so far are ok if shallow (under 15 feet), but any deeper and the colors start to green or...

Not that I was planning to go there anytime soon, but being my only cert so far is from SSI, it sort of kills things. I guess I should get my next cert (AOW, etc) from another agency just to be safe then??.... that is just stupid. :upset:

Thanks for all the input from everyone. That is the one fantastic thing about discussion boards like this, lots of ideas and shared experiences to learn and grow from. I think the biggest thing that my spooky little experience reinforced from my training is to get a grip on your situation...

I think he just went fully negative and stood there wondering what the heck I was doing taking so long to get through that tube.... We both have (and practice) good bouyancy skills, plus the bottom at this site was rocky and there was nothing to churn up... If that is what you are referring to...

Uncle Pug - Male, 32, 235lbs, 6'2, Non-Smoker, No family cardiac problems that I am aware of, last physical was a few years ago... so I am probably due for another. jepuskar - I thought about the nitrogen narcosis possibility, but it was weird that it didnt happen the day before at the same...

While on a dive trip to Gilboa, I had my first scary experience while diving. As a note, I am very relaxed and comfortable in the water, and have loved every minute of diving except for the few minutes I am about to tell you.... My dive buddy and I where at the tubes in about 60 feet of...

And last but not least... a feeding frenzy ensues on top of the school bus.... watch your fingers... heh heh :eek:

Heres a giant largemouth bass about to chase down and devour this un-suspecting diver....

Heres Dave wondering how I got into the cockpit of the Grumman airplane....

This picture was neat.. the light coming through the surface of the water had a neat effect. One of those 'Cool!... snap and shoot' photos...:out:

And heres Dave wandering around aimlessly in the sunken/enchanted forest.....

Heres one of the St. Joeseph statue in another one of the tubes... or at least I think it was St. Joeseph :rolleyes:

Well, I finally got to pull off a last minute dive trip to Gilboa quarry a couple weeks ago. My dive buddy and I have never been there and we have talked about going since we got certified last year. We camped out onsite for the weekend and only got to do about 4 dives over the two days, but...

Heres a good reference for the wrecks in the great lakes region... Michigan Shipwrecks Site Dive safe! :snorkel:

One of my dive buddies and I are always doing local shore dives up in Port Huron where he lives. I would like to give the Monarch a whirl this season. Right now I just want to get a dive in period!! I need my fix! :out:
