Anyone diving CSSP this weekend?? 7/21&22

Great news is that my son is getting certified.

I decided not to haul all the way to Terrell and not get wet. Since I am there solo I will be trying to buddy up. Good news is that you might get your picture taken if we meet up. The wife told me I better carry my housing and get photos of my son when he is done with certification.

We are suppose to be there at 9:00am on Saturday and I have not heard the time for his Sunday dives.

Jeff -- you doing both Saturday and Sunday? I'm leaning toward Sunday morning at this point, but don't know for sure.

b/t/w -- your photos are excellent.

Thanks for the compliment. Looks like we will be there both days but they did not mention what time on Sunday. Looking forward to getting wet, I will post when I find out the time on Sunday.

PS - I have found out that my laser pointer is like catnip to the sunfish and they go after it like mad when pointed at a surface.

Is that 'feeding' the fish--sorta??? Someone will chime in and say that is bad for them...you might blind them.....

Funny!

I might try to feed them 4" of dive knife but that is all I am willing to part with. My ears are not on the menu.

Jeff -- I hope Day 1 went well for your son. Let me know what time you will be there tomorrow as I'm 90% sure I'm going if I can line-up a buddy.

If someone still needs a buddy, send me a PM. My buddy for the day just canceld on me and I'm sitting home with my gear packed.

:help:

Sorry I did'nt get back with you in time. I did'nt find out what Sunday's plans were till late and we did not get back to a computer till today. Both dayse went well and I now have a new dive buddy. I am a proud papa. He did great and we enjoyed the afternoon diving when he finished his certification.
