9/7/2009 - 09-06-09-LJS; First doubles dive

The '09 labor day weekend kicking off with a blast Saturday morning with my first ever doubles dive.
The first thing that comes to mind about this dive is, "I wish I'd done it sooner!"

Diving with a vintage set of 72's was fantastic (1971 born on date). The trim was perfect and the entry/exit were more managable than I expected. This experience was a top 3 new equipment dive for sure (#1 Apeks reg #2 my first camera).

It felt so natural I can't wait to do it again (get your mind back on diving for a minute).

Thanks to Spencer for the loaner Deep Outdoors double wing.

Finally, a small piece of diving history goes along with the tanks. So far, I have learned (yet to be confimed) that the tanks which I purchased from Marianne L. were previously owned by Scuba Sean (aka Sean in Hawaii) and before that Steve Donathan, who is remebered with a plaque on the Yukon, which is maintained in part by Jim Kinane, who almost bought the tanks but I beat him to it. Small world.

Here are a few photos from the dive...

Edit Note: Got my days confused. Sept 6 was a Sunday. Doh!
