When will you be there?

CaptJack

It looks like our Tech class is 12/13. I'll probably come in early Sat AM. We'll be camping (remember - SWMBO defines camping as no room service after midnight).

Sara_the_Brown - aka my eldest, is in DFW this weekend, I'll see if she and my son are interested in having the second annual single gene-pool dive - or helping the old guy with the doubles.

My dear finnie, why would you need a deco bottle for Athens??

A) The same reason I need doubles - more bottom time
B) To have when I need to share air and she doesn't want my cooties on her primary reg
C) She can stay long enough on a tank at 20' to go into deco?
D) Didn't anyone show you the drop-off just past the motorcycle? Bottom is around 200'

Seriously - we're doing the shallow dives for the tech class - the usual stuff - valve drills, deco bottle rig/unrig, drop-off etc. thus the kit.
