OK, lets make a deal. If you stop telling me how to dive, I'll stop going down to the bus station at 2am to slap d***s out of your mouth.

Looks fine to me. Being in landlocked CO I'm used to vistas like that. But yes I do wish I could go diving out my side yard like Marvel.

I have dived carter lake at about 6000 feet. Did my dry suit training there. Unfortunately it had rained the night before and the viz was about 1 inch if that. I do my diving in the ocean but I'd be game to try other lakes or quarries if and when the opportunity presents itself. As for cow snot water I guess it can't be any worse then diving in a fishes toliet bowl and I sure enjoy that. :P

Sweet!  Where is that?

He could tell ya...but then he'd have to shoot ya! :P

or i could give ya a hint,
but then i'd have to lock your head in a box for 10 years.


the elevation is about 5,000 ft

we have been joking with the helo pilots, trying to get them to take us up on the mountains to go snowboarding when more snow comes in.



and ya wouldn't wanna get in any of the standing water around here, no telling what kinda filth is in there.

i can't even count the number of shots i got before coming over here.

It's something I started at the shop...what can I get boys to do for a nickle? You'd be shocked... :usflag: Now I'm going to be looking for troughs on our way up to the canal this weekend for diving!

Back on topic - BradfordNC :anna:

Sounds painful, so are you going to let us know where you are!? Probably not in the land of cows although that looked like rural cattle land to me.

yeah, its rural alright. lol, to the extreme.

but i haven't seen any cows yet.

lots of goats, and some donkeys, but no cows.

they must be hiding.

At least if you had cows, you could have one mean BBQ...

and you mean the helo guys aren't up for a snow boarding adventure? I figured they'd be all over that.
