Wrinkles October '06 Dive Planning Thread - Laguna Beach

[SoCalAngel]

I am so excited...only five more days to the wrinkle's dive!!!!!:wave-smil

My hubby is coming for sure, and I will probably force my two boys, Graham - 15 and Alex - 11, to come along as well. Wrinkles, try to keep your neice away from my eldest. He has a good heart but is a player. He is certified but has stated that "I don't dive cold murky water anymore" after diving in Costa Rica last July. Ok, so maybe I spoiled him, just a little. :11:

So, Christian, put me down for me plus 3 guests, k? We'll bring an EZ up, coffee, and Hot coco mix.

Oh, also pm your email address and I will send that group pic from the last wrinkles dive in San Diego.

Hi Laurel,

Keep in mind that "portable cooking devices" are not allowed at Heisler Park, so the hot water for the coffee or cocoa would have to come in a Thermos or some other hot beverage container.

Guys, judging from recent dive at various Laguna beaches, I am sorry to say that most of you will be rather disappointed with the 25'+ of visibility and huge 2' surf.
I still hope as many people that have promised to show up will make it with the current conditions we are having.
I know most of you will opt for clearer, warmer waters a all we have here is 61° and almost 30' of visibility.
:shakehead
If you are iffy on skills entering with no surf, stay at home because this is not for you. If you are uncomfortable diving in minimal vis, ie: 20'+, stay at home. This dive is not for you.:no
Otherwise, I am very excited to have reserved this Saturday off so I can dive with all you strokes!!

See you all Saturday. And I'll add 3 more to my res. (The whole famn damily is coming!)

I am a rather new diver and really want to check out Laguna. I am hoping to get out there on Saturday and see what Laguna has to offer as well as meet some other divers. I have one HP100 tank and wondering if I should pick up another (rental) or is Laguna Sea Sport pretty close to get a fill in between dives?
Thanks...

I'll bring a couple extra al80 tanks for people to borrow, so you can use one or both of those if no one else lays claim. You can also run to LSS for a fill, they are very close.

Well, I've only done the two shore dives (_last_ Wrinkles dive in lake-like La Jolla) but I may drop by, anyway. Heck, I just bought bananas, today. I'll need a (hopefully, experienced in gnarly waves ) buddy so, hopefully I can find someone who will want to dive with me.

Hope to see y'all on Saturday!

You live in Laguna Beach, have between 100-199 dives and you have only done two shore dives?
Leave the bananas at home and bring the sponge (aka:boogie board) and sherpa my gear!

Yeah, my wife got certified the first time in February in Corona del Mar. When I got certified (and she got recertified), she told me "no cold water and *NO* shore diving." Well, I've gotten her to relent on the cold water but I'm doing the shore diving thing by myself.
