4/5/2007 - Spring in the Mid West

                    OMG the last time i made a Post here was Oct 31 he he he.  Well most of the Winter was really Mild then after the first of the year all hell broke lose . Very cold weather and lots of snow and more cold. The only diving i did was Pool Dives once a month with the Dive Club so at least i was getting Wet and Blowing some  Bubbles.I also went to the yearly scuba show and expo Our World Underwater which is held here every  Feb so that kind of broke thing s up for the winter and that usually opens our diving season out in this part of the World.

                   Now it s spring the Quarry is open but the water temp is 40 degrees and the vis is great around 40 to50 ft. Only problem most of the divers are using there dry suit s so for some of us were waiting for the water to hit 50degrees like we do every year . We usually hit the quarry the first weekend in May so it s going to be kind of touch and go because right now the last couple of day s Mother nature has decided to let us cool off a little  more with day time highs in the 30s. Funny last week we were in 60 s and 70 s.

                  So what do i want out of this dive season this year he he . Well lot s of dive s, maybe my first dive in Lake  Mich, and in a few week s i am going to go  to my LDS and sign up for my EFR and Rescue Diver Classes which i did not get a chance to do last Summer. Dont worry i wont be a stranger around here i will have plenty to wright about this Spring, Summer and Fall. Now if i can only get Mother Nature to turn up the Heat some what i will be happy.
