It's about a 2 1/2 hour drive... There's also Lea Lake near Roswell too..

Hey guys,
Just got back from Balmorhea and you guys missed a great weekend. There were only about 6 of us diving the whole weekend and the weather was absolutely perfect. Clear, warm water with a huge amount of fish, turtles and diving ducks. I'll try and post some pictures a little later this week.

Hey, Willie
Glad ya'll missed what we had up here...it SLEETED for two hours Saturday morning, and we had ice on the ground until Sunday morning! Talk about freaky weather! Got me to thinking, though...have any of our die-hard divers ever been diving in sleet?

Hey Guba,
I have a video (was originally on super 8) of a bunch of us diving Blue Hole with 8 inches of snow on the ground and in the air sometime back around 1980 or 81. It was warmer in the water then out.

One of my diving friends in Christian Divers of Texas is a fellow from Minnesota (go figure...CDOT members in other states). He told me of diving in EIGHT degrees! The water was significantly warmer than the air, that's for sure, but then 33 degree water is too cold for me. Brave souls.
