Howdy from another Texan!
Athens is a a nice place to learn to dive. Generally good conditions, and plenty of different underwater things to investigate (such as the plane, cabin cruiser, and others).
And you're lucky since once you get your o/w card, you've got a good venue to practice at. And that is one key to getting the different skills down....practice, practice, practice.
Who's your instructor? Calvin himself?
And we look forward to you joining us on one of our club dives very soon.

Thanks for the greatings and as for the training I spoke to Calvin and Jim. Looking forward to the class. You are right TexasMike it close to the house and the water looked clear.
I might of opps the name thing, over on the Swamp Divers pages I have the name rsr4224 but over on this board I have the swamper one. When the other web page starts maybe I can get Tom to change my name. Every one had cool fishy names and this is what my CB handle was in the 70' s so I used it

There are already too many of us Darn Texans on the board, but welcome anyway. Maybe sometime this year we will get to Athens to dive. Otherwise see ifyou can make it to Terrell.

Calvin is a very good instructor. You will definitely get some good training.
Since Athens Scuba Park is so popular, remember to always keep your eyes peeled for things that don't look natural. I have friends who have found several bits of dive equipment (knives, masks, etc) around the platforms and u/w attractions. Plus get Calvin to tell you his treasure hunting stories. He has even found several cannon balls(!!) in there.
The TSDT will probably mosey over there sometime this summer.
