I know only about Sunday.

First let me tell you... those that showed up for the weekend are a bunch of crazy folks (me included).

I'll let the others really tell you about what happened or didn't on Saturday, but let me tell you oh my, oh my, oh my -- if only if it's half true.

We gathered in Brockville for an 8am start. Loaded up, and soon were heading off to our first wreck the "Muskie". I got buddied with another solo diver, and we had a grand time. Water temp about 68f -- it was overcast, but that helped us from overheating as it was still warm. The buddy teams hit the water, and we all had good dives.

The charter op was impressed on how we all were geared up and hitting the water in an efficient manner :teeth:

When we all returned, we then headed to wreck #2 the "Gaskin". After an appropriate SI, we all had a grand tour.

Upon surfacing, we headed into shore for retrievals of extra tanks --- as we were treated to a third dive (I'll let the others explain why -- it's quite a tale)

Five us hit the water, and drifted into the Lilly, enjoyed the wreck then drifted down to our exit line. When we returned to the boat, the BBQ was going in quick order for lunch for those that had signed up for it.

We returned back to the dock, and sadly bit adieu to new friends and old.

Oh I know this is short... and rather brief, but it gives the others to pipe up soon. That's one advantage of living real close :)

Those that are coming to the bask on Labour Day weekend, will love the wrecks!

Fo a starter just ask 'em about:

-- a unique way of taking pictures (or not as the case may be)
-- who was fondling someone's cookies

How does my name enter into this all of the sudden? I was a little ways west of there and have an alibi.

I heard something about being trapped on the water for four hours, fins coming off, and the Coast Guard from my source.

Until then, I didn't do it, nobody saw me do it, and YOU CAN'T PROVE ANYTHING. :flower:
