Just wanted to also say, Merry Christmas to all and hope everyone has a Happy New Year. Safe diving to all as we go into this next year!

Great day for both ends of Ohio, with the Browns also winning, in true Browns fashion!!!!! But unlike the Bangals, the Browns still have a slim, slim shot at the playoffs!!!!!!! GO BROWNS!

Natasha, Sound like a great time at your place. Sorry I can't join you but after hearing about the feast you may get a lot of folks on your doorstep. I will be taking my mom to my cousins for the day. This year my son will be joining us, along with my cousins daughter and family. Lots of...

Yes I was the one with the info on the new quarry. It was great meeting so many for this board and hope to be able to join the KPP next time they dive up this way. Finger is finally healing, got a little infected. Next time I'm biting that piranha trout back. Had to repair the tiny little...

I don't think Gilboa has frozen over completely in the last 5 years as the winters have been too mild but it has frozen over. If the weather keeps up the way it has, this may the winter is does. By the way, we have several inches of snow on the ground left over from yesterday's snow fall. If...

I too believe that it is important to give back to your community. I am a director for our junior football league. Our league is for 4-6 graders and teaches fundamentals of football. This past year we had 215 players on 8 teams. Saturdays duing September and October is all day football...

Just wanted to say it was great meeting so many from this board! Diving was pretty good for Gilboa, except for those pesky trout. (Battle wounds from the man-eating fish, or should I call them women bitting fish!:sharky: ) I hope we can do this again sometime now that I have thawed out.

If you local paper ran a story about this, you may want to contact them to see if they can give you any help. They may have access to several sources of info on the story and who to contract. Hope you find what you need.

We are all assuming that these were people that went through a full B0W course. Sound like it may be a case of a resort course gone very wrong. Just a thought.

I don't think people have a problem with questions being asked, I think it was the way it was phrased. It came off as being rather harsh. I think most of us on the board find the interaction with people from all around this liquid planet part of what makes it a great board. We don't want...

Reminds me of an incident at Ginny. Seems an OW diver got in at the Devil's ear. (For those not familiar, this is a cave system) He proceeds to take off his BC/tank and leave it just inside the exit to the chimney. He is then seen taking a deep breath and swimming down the gold line a ways...

Dytis, Thanks for a great laugh!:D When I first started "tech diving", I was always the lone women of the group. Many of the trips were great except the matter being the only women on board and no loo!!!!! Your post brought back many memories for me. Also, since I was the only female, I...

I think many of the posts have addressed the issue of why it is so hard to build structures that can withstand tornados. If you have never seen or been near one you just cannot understand the forces of nature at work. It can go from dead calm to 80 mph winds a heart beat! Having been through...

Welcome to the board! Always nice to see another Michigander joining in. It's a great place for info and just meeting new divers. I will be at Gilboa this weekend, so hope to see you there!:)

two things come to mind...... First, to set up the day. Two divers board the boat and immediately start bragging about how they are great tech divers. They bang into everyones gear, are loud and generally a pain. First dive of the day, my buddy and I penetrate the wreck running a line. As...

In addition to what the others said, are you telling us that you would have to give up part of your class time (which you are paying for) to do this????????? Any AOW class course I know needs all the class time for YOUR instruction. It's your class, they should not be taking away from YOUR...

I just talked to the folks at Gilboa. The were not damaged by the storms and everything is up and running. Hope to see you all on the 16th.

Chad, Thanks for your continued prayers. No word, lines are still down. Just waiting and praying. Kim

Hope to be there next week, just hope there is a quarry that is divable. Tornados hit south and north of Gilboa. Possible F4 tornado just north. The whole area is very hard hit. Still trying to get a hold of friends who were in the path. Looking forward to meeting those from the board...
