Chris,

I'm a police officer and rescue diver. If you need help with these two "girls", I'll have handcuffs and pepper spray at the ready. <laughing>
 
Well, I'm quite sure the pepper "spray" is not necessary, you can come out and whip up a nice pepper sauce and a grilled steak or two though. Penny may really like the handcuff thing as well.
 
Yes, Officer. ;)

A nice pepper steak might be enough to keep me inline......
 
Oh honey, you'll be fine. Just close your eyes. :)

Well it looks like Team Prages is going to be at Gilboa this weekend taking lessons from Kris of Sand N Sea.

Still trying to talk PennyPue into it, so if there are any others out there who need their AOW, this is the place to be.

Yes, Officer. ;)

Pepper steaks I do quite well. :) I cook 'em with a little hickory wood to add a nice background flavor. I could probably rustle up a few steaks for the grill.

*Trying to help Chris out a little*
Now Penny and Prages, I have to tell you that SCUBA training is quite serious. There will be no "smokin' & jokin' " on training day. Both of you will follow orders to the letter with an attitude of urgency! It's serious business, this training... < snickering knowing how well Pue likes taking orders >
 
AOW is done dude! Weekend form heck is done too. It was just one bad piece of luck after another this weekend, but we finally got the classes done and got our temp cards at last.

Too bad that after the way I yelled at "Mike", we can't ever go back to Gilboa.

It was great to meet the Princess and her entourage. Randy and Bob were a great pair to tag along with the Princess. I am very sad that we did not get to spend more time with you guys. It seemed like the only laughter we heard was coming from them. Gilboa seemed very grim this weekend and for those of you who know me, you have to know that was killing me.

I talk to everybody whether they like it or not usually and it just didn't seem like anybody around us was up for it.

We got our certs though, our regs need to get some work though since they free flowed the entire weekend. Our tent needs a little work since it has a hole in the floor, from having to be moved twice - Thanks to Mike, hence the yelling and the reason we can't ever go back there. Just bad stuff all around.

Our instructor was very good though and put up with us the whole time. I even got her to laugh a few times at my underwater antics. Face planting during peak performance and stuff like that. So much fun.

Weekend is over dude. Thank goodness.
 
Mrs. Prages, ma'am....it was a complete pleasure!!!! Mr. Prages, also known as, This Guy....is a complete doll and had best continue to treat you like the jewel that you are.

Love this story....so there's Bob and I walking around looking to see if we can find the Prages. And there is this hyper-friendly, absolutely marvelous woman that we pass on the road. She insisted on tucking in the tag on the back of my top. Bob and I completed our walk and inspection of the campground looking for a car either with West Virginia plates or a name tag with "Prages" on it. We even checked the office to find out if they were registered. We did learn that the instructor was there. So hmmmmm. We took down the name of the instructor and proceeded to inspect each and every vehicle for the name Haumschilderheimschmidtenhorst or something like that. FOUND IT!!! And who should be sitting by the fire at that camping space???? The crazy obsessive compulsive tag tucking lady!!!! PAULA PRAGES aka Smith ;)

For those of you who have not met her. She is beautiful, intelligent and friendly as I am. :D Good thing we didn't spend more time together, I didn't bring bail money. <snicker>

:wave-smil
Congrats on your AOW to you and This Guy!!!!
 
I have to admit, the whole tag tucking thing was rather ironic. :D

It was good to meet you guys. Too bad we're probably banned from Gilboa now! :)
 
Mr. and Mrs. Smith! It was good to meet you, too. You both are a lot of fun. Let Mike cool off a bit. You'll be welcome back to the quarry, I'd bet.

Hey Penny, you're a good diver! Thanks for the sandwich, it hit the spot.
