Alright everyone, this weekend is here. Anyone up?


Where to?


I'm easy...anywhere I can drive to within 6 hours or so. I am in Louisiana (central) and can drive to FL, Ar, MS, or Tx. I hear alot of talk on the Texas sites, but have never dove there. That would be my preference, but like I said...I'm easy..just not cheap..LOL


That's a long way to dive for the crummy local diving in Texas, but I wouldn't mind heading down to Mammoth Lake. I heard the vis has cleared up a little bit.

Now if you want to come down next week and dive the Flower Gardens with us, that will be some good diving!!


If I am going to spend the night and dive the next day I dont mind driving 6 hours. Houston is only about a 3 hour drive for me so that isnt too bad. I can make Pensacola in 5.5 hours. I have my kids next weekend...seems that I have my weekends off a bit for the SD schedule...I am trying to adjust it. I'd love to dive with ya'll, just trying to get all the schedules on the same page. Where is Mammoth Lake? And Saturday looks good to me. Can I rent a tank there?

I am looking for people that are interested in going diving this weekend. I want to check out some of the local dive sites and need a buddy or a group to go.
Was thinking 288 lake, formerly tiki lake, if noone wants to hit that one, then we can head up north to blue lagoon.
Or if you want, maybe we can all get ahold of a dive boat and go hit a rig in the gulf.
let me know if you are interested and where you would like to go diving.



I am new at diving was cert in June. If you are interested in someone really new at this and have patience I might be interested in 16 or 17th (288, mammoth) something to that nature.
