5/21/2006 - It s Time

It s time to get wet and blow some bubbles for me on Saturday May 27 at Haigh Quarry in Kankakee Il.Just found out the other day from my dive buddy that the Water temp is 55 and the Vis is 30ft. There is still a lot for us to see at the Quarry that we have not seen yet .Plus my dive club Midwest Divers are having a day of diving and a cook out there on Monday the 29th of May so i have to let them know at our monthly meeting Thursday night if i will be going to the dive/cook out.I may not be able to go i might have to work but should find out during the week.

I am really looking forward to going Saturday and starting out the 2006 dive season with some good dives. No more Mid Winter pool dives just to be blowing bubbles till next winter plus i get to use my new Tank and BCD that i bought last Dec .So i will tell you all about it some time Saturday. Until then Dive Safe Dive Often.

You bought gear in Dec & haven't used it yet? You must be soooo anxious to get back in the water! Have a great time and let us know how it went :)

55 degrees isn't so bad, and 30 foot viz is pretty decent, huh? I'm quickly getting spoiled in FL. Getting used to those warmer waters. I plan to try and head to CA in October...just to remember how to dive in a drysuit. :) Looking forward to a trip report. :)

Posted by santafejoe

Limeyx well yes and no. Yes when i go to the Quarry we always dive down to the Rock Crusher. and then over to some huge Drilling machine . No to the fact of actually diving on a Ship wreck , not yet any way.Maybe in Sept i might go with my dive club to do a wreck dive on the southern part of Lake Mich.
