Hey Natasha, if cookin Betsy is not much different than cookin Bambi. I might be able to lend a hand there.
Oh wait a sec...I'm having a flash back...fire, flames shooting up into the air....Fire department. Hummm... maybe this is not such a good idea.
In addition to the Quadraped...be sure to serve plenty of biped as well (chicken).

Also, I'd like to see some of Fishkiller's Krabby Patties if you're willing to take a shot and making them
 
I got a story to share. My family was going to a funeral one of our relitives passed and Ms. Mott from next door fried some chicken for us to carry to whom ever house it was. Well that was the best chicken I ever ate in my life, bar none. That chicken didn't last 15 minutes after it arrived. You know how there are good cooks and then there is the all time hall a famers Cookers. Well that chicken put Ms. Mott in that group. I know none of my family felt guilty about the chicken episode because that was the best chicken ever.
And I have to say Aunt Dorthey with those hand made biscuits is deffinatly in there also. Got to love that reciepe she gave me. Flour a little shorten and a dab of salt. Well how much? Just until it feels right. I think that's her way of saying go catch me some bream and I'll cook you some. Biscuits and honey. I need to go I'm getting hungry.
 
Good thing I am eating lunch right now. All this talk about Krabbie Patties and chicken and who knows what else.... :lunch:

I'd like morning dives too if there's still room. How about you seaangel?

Hope mom is having a better day and diving.
 
Walt, Pam and I will be flying out in the early afternoon on the next day. We would prefer mornings also if there is room. If not I can try to change flight times but am not sure we will be able to.

Let me know if I need to try to change flights :)
 
Unfortunately since I was unaware of Plan B, I already booked a 2pm return flight. Jeff and I would need to do morning dives at least on the last day in order to meet the minimum surface interval before flying.

:( Sorry. Unfortunately there aren't that many flights between Ft Lauderdale and Kansas City. In fact, that was the only on that day that was direct.

If there are too many people who want morning dives and not enough slots, let me know and I will see what I can do.

Thanks,
:bunny: Heather :bunny:
 
Still no diving today. We're all making the best of it. Hopefully tomorrow. If not ..well we'll cross that bridge when we need to.

Seems the morning people spoke up first. ( Just like morning people) LoL.
So who's able to dive in the afternoon?
And then there is plan C and D. Walter looks like at least plan C could go into play here.
What's plan C you ask ...
Are you ready for this .. drum roll please ....
 
Walter,

I prefer mornings as well, mainly just because I like to get up and go. I suspect that I can get a later flight so I can be flexable in needs be. What impact does this have on non-course diving (what was to be afternoon dives)?

Natasha,

Kathy has volunteered as assistant cook as long as she doesn't have to wash dishes!

Everbody,
any of you going to have non-diving (or limited diving-maybe as in my case) spouses/friends/ or whatevers along?
 
Herman:
Because the classes need to be split up now, the afternoon dives will be shore dives. Unless Walter thinks we can have morning people doing the boat wreck dives again, but that doesn't really make sense for anyone.
I should have told Walter this on the phone, but I can type it now.
Walter it's very unlikely we will have people cancel going on this trip.
So far I have had 0 divers cancel any of the trips they have committed to going on. The word of a diver, is a good one.
 
Put Beast and I down for mornings. But if everyone wants mornings, we really haven't changed anything, have we?

Because the classes need to be split up now, the afternoon dives will be shore dives.

If the afternoon dives will be shore dives then take me off the afternoon dive list. My knees don't like those walks across loose sand, among other beach diving features, so I don't argue with them! I'll try to find another boat to go out on in the afternoons.

Unless Walter thinks we can have morning people doing the boat wreck dives again, but that doesn't really make sense for anyone.

Why doesn't that make sense? I haven't seen a wreck yet that I don't want to dive over and over. Depth and bottom times can be planned for and adjusted.

I can see Walter not wanting to double teach the class but that shouldn't effect divers either finished with the class dive or not in the class at all.
 
I really don't think AM vs PM will an issue, especially if people want to dive morning and afternoon. At least three of us will already be diving each site twice. On nitrox, we can safely make these dives. We'll probably have morning dives be fun dives for those who are diving in the afternoon and put them to work in the afternoon. I do not expect scheduling to be more than a minor headache. As far as cancellations - I don't expect any either, but I do like to consider possibilities. I certainly do not want anyone to cancel. Sometimes things come up beyond a diver's control. A dear friend might schedule a wedding during Wreckmania. Stranger things have happened. Everyone is welcome on all scheduled trips, but shore dives are also available for those interested.
