Aquarena Trip report 2/1

[scubashawn123]

What a breathtaking day. 72 degrees in the water, hot and sunny out of the water, a little wind in the morning.

Saw many folks from Dallas, people learning to dive in classes, tech classes practicing multi-gas techniques.

I guess the harvester ran over the uw cam cable, it needs repair, I had the housing at home this week for annual cleaning of the scale build up, and did not get to put it back on line today.

Got some great shots of Garr, lots of Garr, and Telipia (if that is how you spell it) probably around 45 of them old and newborns.

Also, for the first time recorded got a little video hit, of this odd carp.

Tried to make a dent cleaning deep hole. Some progress made.

Saw lots of good friends and divers at Aquarena today. It was a really fun day.

Thank you Bill and Scott for showing up. Sorry to wake you Zinc, guess you missed the day. I understand how it is being single and Saturday night. We had an early call to spend all day in the water.

A buddy and I are going to Aquarena tomorrow and will continue working on deep hole cleaning. I hope we get to see a bunch of gar, since I will have the camera along for the dive.

Sounds much like the beautiful, sunny winter day a year ago when FooMan and I met you, K-Valve, and Zinc at Aquarena! It was a nice day, diving and meeting new friends is always good. A bad thing happened to Zinc- guess he never did get his way expensive Henderson hooded core warmer back... And we went to eat with you and K-Valve at that great hamburger spot on the river.

Time to do it again!

So what happens the other 5 days of the year? Earthquake days?

Ohh...I don't know...I just figured even the pristine waters of Ralph the Diving Pig fame might have a lower viz day every so often.
