Rules For Diving

For drysuit divers: never miss an opportunity to go pee (before suiting up!)

Before submerging from the surface, switch from snorkel to regulator.

Do not try to dive the Flower Gardens when a Huricane is in the gulf. You may have a long swim back to Galveston (assuming it's still there) if your dive boat sinks durning the storm.
