    That's hysterical! I'm in the same situation (running from an ex) that's why I relocated to TN.

    Lanier WBP 8/27 ?

    I've got a drysuit, if I'm in the area at that time I'll definitley go, but I get the whole xmas week off so would likely be somewhere tropical. Speaking of that, does anyone know where the supermodel divers go on xmas break??

    Need a buddy to dive in Pelham AL

    Weird, when I was up there to get a tank fill, he told someone on the phone (a solo) they were welcome to come up and go down to the quarry to find someone to go up to the office to sign the waiver as a buddy. I should have pm'd you my phone number and I could have run up there. That place is...

    Need a buddy to dive in Pelham AL

    Dude! What happened to me??? I was there at about 10:30, driving the Silver Jetta wagon like advertised. I was at the far end of the quarry, there was hardly anyone there, I can't see how you missed me. We had awesome vis on the first dive, but it was murked up a bit for the second...

    Actually the sticker is 47 highway. Some nerds are poking along slowly to be in the "50mpg club". Figure the costs for the hybrids and the environmental impacts of the massive batteries, I don't get it.

    Need a buddy to dive in Pelham AL

    No maintenance yet, but I've only got 15,000 miles on it. I got the extended warranty too as VeeDubbs have a pretty poor record. The diesel has less parts, no ignition system, so should be more reliable than a gas engine. I have heard that the turbos go out on them quite a bit though, that's...

    Tennessee River - Hunstville Diving ??

    We do dive in the Tennesse here in Chattanooga, looking for old bottles and such. It looks from your profile that your fairly new, so I wouldn't recommend that just yet, current, entaglement, no vis make for a dangerous dive even for someone well equipped and experienced. Now you may be on a...

    Need a buddy to dive in Pelham AL

    For two to three very comfortable, it will slightly cramp with 4 folks, not much backseat leg room but plenty of cargo room. To haul 8 tanks plus gear, you might have to put some auxiliary racks on top for some of the lighter gear bags. I have the Tdi turbodiesel, I'm getting 40 mpg and I...

    Need a buddy to dive in Pelham AL

    Excellent, hope to see you there. Oh, and Mike, I never used to let my wife tell me I couldn't dive (of course that may be why I'm single now :06: )

    Need a buddy to dive in Pelham AL

    It's just going to be me and a newbie. We would also be getting there around 10:00 - 10:30. Look for us, I'll be wearing a silver and red shorty, and there is a large octopus tattoo on my right calf. I'll be with a blond lady who is in her mid fifties. I'll be driving a silver Jetta Wagon...

    Underwater cites in the south....

    I'd love to go on any exploratory dives. I'm in Chattanooga, so would be happy to check it out. Must caution you though, these sorts of structures could potentially be very dangerous: Fishing line, depth, low vis, unstable, etc.. I would be very wary of any entry into any of these...

    Inaugural Rocky Mountain Oyster gathering

    Man, I never thought I'd be jealous about not being in Colorado to dive. Finally a dive club gets together and I move out of the state. Hope you guys have fun. Found a great quarry near here (Chattanooga) with incredible visibility, but no one to go diving with! Get a crayfish count and...
