no trees were harmed while posting any of my messages,
however a significant number of electrons were inconvenienced.

As for the diving, it was really great...a little shallow, but great. I think I was the first to stop with the night divers due to air...but I was exhausted anyways!

It was great to meet some new faces out at Athen's this past weekend..and it was great fun!!! I certainly hope that we can all get together next time we do this again, as there will definatly be a next time.
Either way, thanks to everyone who did come out, and those who are in other states and/or weren't able to make it, we all had you with us in spirit and hope that possibly you will make it next time.

OMG!!! I love you and I'll keep my mouth shut until AFTER you post only the good pics!!!Oh what a great weekend indeed. Looking forward to the next Event and meeting and socializing with everyone again.
I am in the process of putting together a trip summary and LOTs of pictures, so be careful girls of what you say.....GOD is watching and CAN post some pictures.
Just kidding....it was GREAT meeting everyone finally and having the opportunity to chat and visit with all of you. For those of you that were not able to make it.....you don't know what you were missing. The establishment was great, the food was better, but the COMPANY was the BEST.

Thanks for a fun weekend gathering!
I knew it'd be a fun time, and for a quarry dive-site, the Athens park is certainly nice. I wanted to see the divers I already knew face-face, and meet some of those I haven't met face-face yet, and just as I feared - y'all would have had a lot of fun without me. Glad I got to be there.
My second dive got interesting, when I wandered away from the group and got beached in the shallows! Got so frustrated about being in water too shallow to swim, I couldn't find the way I came in for a quick exit, so I had to crawl out. Glad I had gloves on, and - while I'll admit it now, I'm glad no one saw it!
The 900 mile round-trip dive was a little much, but I made it okay and kept my costs down okay, and besides - I wanted to support this effort of a great organization, albeit in the small way I could.
thanks again, friends! don

Yeah I know: I've been branded a non-group person - doesn't play well with others. I am so upset. Let me know if you want to have some fun, without the drama - I'm good for that.

SandyK was a blast but I bet she doesn't pitch her tent so close to mine next time....for a variety of reasons! Micheal and Narwahl great guys and I am so looking forward to diving with them in Bonaire in a couple weeks. The youngsters were a kick....I also found out I can do a really good DiveCutie impersonation!!!!
We also found out ZD has many hidden talents...Like exhaling macaroni with one mask purging motion...And while on the topic of ZD...I also want to thank him for some very important inspiration...He happened to mention he was heading out to DM this weekend on a boat in the Flower Gardens. He pulled his trusty computer out and shared some pics.....Yes, he travels with his computer so he can make sure everyone is behaving. Anyway, after seeing all that and finding out there was some room left on the boat...I just booked my berth!!!! Heading for the Flower gardens Friday night!!!! How would the Wench say it...WOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
What else....Ohh ya...Got to try out a scooter! Those things are fun....But if you ever get in the water and Tom is driving one be very careful he has only two speeds...fast and faster!
I know I am forgetting all sorts of great people all I can say is I had a great time and it was such a pleasure getting to meet play and dive with all of you! I would especially like to thank and applaude Dejah, The Wench and Narwahl for all thier hard work making this happen for us. it's going to be hard to miss any of these gatherings.
