I just saw this thread. Evidently Hockeynut was seriously injured at work when crane fell on him. Once again Scubaboard is rallying to help one of our own. Jim isn't exactly a Swamper, but I think everyone on Scubaboard has talked to him at some or other, so I thought I'd repost this here for...

This was in the Austin Spaceman -- in part: San Marcos San Marcos’ Spring Lake could warrant World Heritage Site designationRelatedView Larger Laura Skelding Humans are believed to have lived on the shores of the lake for the past...

I'm still around too, although not diving much this year. Dove at several events & with LakeTravis. Driftwood will vouch for me too, I think. :)

There's also Blue Lagoon in Huntsville. E of San Antonio a ways. It's a quarry and almost always has decent viz. The Blue Lagoon - Huntsville, Texas

Did I miss something? Did they also pull the 2nd sub?

Great going David! You'll be back reducing the lionfish population in no time.

But see Driftwood's previous comments about what Ron Coley thinks. :) Texas State on track to finish Aquarena restoration in June

Wonderful news! Isn't Scubaboard connectedness great?! Heard this on the radio today. It reminds me of David's situation (painful). MercyMe - The Hurt & The Healer (New Song 2012) - YouTube

Just saw this thread. Praying the best for you David and Monica.

Looks like 67F, pretty much isothermal to 60ffw. This is a great site for keeping tabs on water temps near the dam: Current LTTS Weather Readings

Lake Georgetown and Granger Lake report - strictly for historical purposes note that these are low water conditions at Lk Georgetown. Lk Granger is only 4 feet below normal. 10/1/11 Lake Georgetown Dove off the swim beach at Russell Park Water temp 79F Mid channel was 8ffw. Might be...

Travis County Search and Rescue has this country's premier water search dog trainer in town this weekend, training at Lake Granger. They need at least 1 more diver. So this is your chance to help out the local good guys and practice real swamp diving. Basically we'll be lying on the bottom, in...

Close to the dam, if you wiggle down into the sand a little, you can usually find 12'. :D Most of it is 8ish in the middle and 4ish at some of the banks.

May be a moot point: Texas State scraps plan to develop new golf holes near Spring Lake Says in part: that the problem was plans for a RR overpass on Aquarena Springs Dr that would have taken out 2 holes of the golf course, 118 parking spaces and necessitated moving the Proshop. The overpass...

This was posted to the UT dive club. I spoke to Karen and half a day of diving is fine, if that's all the time you have. Lake GT has about 6 inches of viz on a good day so this qualifies as Swamp Diving for sure. Working depth is 10-14 feet. Temp last weekend was 82F. Divers go down in pairs...

Just got approval to dive and it came with this info: I would like to take this opportunity to inform the three of you that the last day for volunteer diving and open water diving is September 18. This is because the Habitat Restoration Project is scheduled to begin shortly after that date...

Mmmmm... and the bakery!

Or maybe you could meet up with these guys: Trashfest 2011 - Comal River, New Braunfels, TX - Austin Scuba Meetup (Austin, TX) - Meetup

As far as I know Sea World doesn't have any scuba diving options for the public. They do have a behind the scenes tour that you and your family might find interesting. New Braunfels is about 30 miles N of San Antonio and you can putter around in the Comal River at Hineman Island park. It's...

Texas Parks & Wildlife has certified science divers. I bet they'll be the ones doing the collecting. They are still going to need water from the springs because that's what the SM salamanders and darters are adapted to. Anyone heard what diving restrictions were imposed when flow dropped below...
