I'm best when I'm bad, but being sick was no fun. I was at the log in the eye when I realized I couldn't equalize on the right ear. I stayed dry the entire weekend while my Elena had all the fun!

Congratulations, Elena!
Ginnie is not an easy place to take a cavern class -- Neither the Eye nor the Ear accomodates a big group of divers well, and you have the flow fighting with you the whole time, too. But if you can manage your skills well there, you can do them almost anywhere!

Thanks everyone for all of your support. This was certainly one of the most challenging courses I've taken. But if a class doesn't challenge you, you won't learn and grow, and it probably wasn't worth your money. More evidence to the frequently heard mantra, "It's the instructor, not the agency." BTW, Jim Wyatt certifies through an alphabet soup of different agencies and he gave me my choice of agency cards, but he teaches the same information and skills and holds you to the highest standards.

Woohoo!!!!!! Congrats, again, Elena!!!
Congratulations. I did Cavern and Basic with Jim a few years ago and completely agree with your endorsement. He is a great instructor with seemingly endless patience (For students 
). I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for training in Florida.

To "mseleanaous" congratulations, sounds like a great Instructor. Sometimes I think Id like to get into cave diving but to be honest Im pretty sure Id freak myself out so until I can get some control over that Ill stay in OW.
