or we can just put the gear on during a rain storm and stand outside. (makes the neighbors look out their windows and wonder)
though the puddle that forms in front of my house does look inviting at times. lol

well, the first pavillion is now reserved for a bunch of divers. not hard to mis, and is close to a lot of the atractions. according to what is said on the chum board and txts to my phone, people will be trying to show up around 9:00 am. but knowing someof the diveaholics that are showing up, there will be diving almost all day long. lol. so no worries about what time you get there. :thankyou:

Dave.

Dave.

Thanks for posting the location where we can be found. I am thinking if you show up later in the day you will still find a few divers willing to go back in.
I can't promise "The Sin" but I will promise a home baked treat of some kind. (Unless Dave eats it all before you arrive).
Looks like there will be a few of us showing up.. come out and join in the fun.

I heard that next month a bunch of Paddlefish are being delivered to Mammoth. :thankyou:
These guys are starting out small.. 12" - 14" (they are trying to get a few larger ones added to the shipment).

If you have ever dove with Paddlefish they are a sight to behold.
These guys live a long time (30 yrs) and grow to be really large (5' or more)
I am not sure how long it takes for them to get big.. but we will have something else to play with while diving Mammoth. :sleepy:
I haven't dove with Paddlefish in several years. The last time I did was in France Park, Indiana... They were in the 5' range.

I have been told that many many times.
Does this mean that these PaddleFish will grow to be closer to 10'? That will be impressive.
I wonder if I live here long enough if I will grow???? :birthday:
