I guess the better questions to have asked were site and class specific. My fault as I did not think things out too well at time in the am.
Hotels closest and easiet to site?
I have 2 tanks to bring, al80. They have the plastic mesh over them, will these be OK?
Does the typical primer start at 8 am?
How about end time? How much food should I plan for each day?
As many of you may have guessed, I tend to fall to the OCD and anal side of things. I still have fun, but fun cannot be had, if you lack the proper planning before hand. 18 years of being married to a guy that used to be a Marine officer, there is just somethings one does not leave to chance. The last thing I want to happen is show up there Sat morning to find out there will be an issue with my tanks and the mesh on them and since I do not have my own bp/w set up, I again have to rely on another for that. Or I did not plan very well and class will not end until 8 or 9 pm and I only packed enough food to get me through lunch. As I am a picky eater and snack shops I usually cannot find much to eat in them. Maybe we over plan things, but we are not the ones usually running around with our heads cut off. I am also one that does not like to be surprised at the last moment. As we live and work an hour from any major stores and LDS, if I need something, I need to plan a little ahead of time.
I tend to stress more about logistics than making a good impression. Making a good impression or wowing someone, has never been at the top of my list. Ill prepared does put me over the edge. For myself or if I am with someone else that is not prepared.
I have also done scuba stuff which led to more stress than there should have been for a drysuit Dog Day with a shop, fun was not one of the things that I experienced for that dive. Cusing under my breath was more of what I did and running around with my head cut off.
Thanks to all of your for your help!
