    News: Birmingham diver given suspended sentence in artifact theft case

    I'm curious if TN has similar laws. I guess the government and the acedemicians would rather these artifacts be ground up during dredging operations and construction projects. It's also good to see the prosecutors and courts wasting time and rescources on something like this rather than...

    Middle TN SB'ers Get Together

    Don't be wimpy, the Lanier Loony birds dive wet on New Years Day! Just kidding, I'll be diving dry:D I'd be up for a dive and dinner or just a social gathering. Anything in Nahsville to dive? Some of us would be up for a river dive, but that won't appeal to most though (and quite...

    Savannah Dives

    Didn't even bring my gear. I wondered if the river had any artifacts. Lots of ship and boat traffic though, I wouldn't dive it without a local guide.

    Alabama & Tennessee here I come ;)

    The clothing for the dry suit you mention should be sufficient. You may get a bit chilled, but probably more from head and extremity heat loss. I would dive with you in Chattanooga (river or a quarry about 45 minutes away) but will probably being doing a dive trip to Florida. PM me, and if...

    wrecks for new divers

    If your looking for a little travel, I'd have to say the wrecks in Aruba are by far the best beginner diver wrecks, relatively shallow, very clear and warm water, and no crazed wreck penetrations to get lured into (don't go in anything other than swimthroughs!!)

    Savannah Dives

    Well, I agreed to meet a lady friend for a romantic Thanksgiving holiday in Savannah, and was wondering if there was a sneak away opportunity for a dive there. Can't be a full day trip, but a morning or afternoon could be doable. I'm guessing most dives out of Savannah are longer boat trips...

    Rock Divers @ Madison Aquatic Park going out of business this weekend...

    Hopefully they will find someone, I went out there a few weeks back and had a really good time. I was looking forward to a few fall dives there as well as they claimed the water stayed reasonably warm until November. Plus, there was stuff to look at unlike Loch Low Minn here in Tennessee.

    8/27/05 - Rock Divers (Madison Quarry)

    Bugman, I'm trying to make some plans for the Labor day weekend, and was considering Gulf Shores/Pensacola area. Will it be crowded as holy heck that weekend? Would you be diving in that area at that time? I'd also need a recommendation on a cheapy roach infested motel. Octo
