Wow. Sorry to hear about your losses. But glad you'll be joining us. :D

Do you need me to bring another grill? I have a gas table top one. It's not big but it can grill maybe 5 or 6 hamburgers at a time.

Shrimp kabobs. OK. It's set. I'm going. Trace and shrimp!! Who could resist? Even if the water is cold and yucky. :D


I was freediving at Dutch Springs today and the surface was like bath water and down deep it was cool. I'll be scuba diving there tomorrow so I'll let everyone know the temperatures.

I still want to fulfill my barbecure duties. Maybe I'll do a barbecure clinic... (top ten barbecue mistakes, how to treat grease burns, forest fire control, etc.). :D

We just have to schedule separate times for barbecue and diving activities.


Since you're the grillmaster, Monte, I'm requesting permission to bring shrimp kabobs.

:D


Absolutely Rick, I need all the help I can get.

Just don't invite those hungry pirate seagulls from Newport.

Hi, Ellen!

I'm still around despite the efforts of sharks trying to kill me and former Miss Fitness NJ's breaking my heart. I'll have to tell you the story about losing my favorite surfboard and my fiancee in the same week.

(Note to all about the HH Clinic: It was decided that I really shouldn't do anything formal so I'm just showing up to dive, but if anyonewants to learn anything, I'd be glad to help people out with gear, skills or questions.)

:cool1: I agree! Shrimp kabobs, Trace, and Ellen at the HH will be an irresistible combo! :D I guess I know who you want to tent with, Ellen! :cool1: Can't say I blame you! And please, do bring another gas grill! :welcome:

.... Thanks for your offer. Any interest in cooking as well? ...



Sure, I'll cook.

If you put a couple more people in that tent of yours, it will be hot enough we won't even need a grill :D


Now THAT is what I'm afraid of!! I'm thinking I'll have to make sure she has an all girl slumber tent...afterall it wouldn't be fair to the guys...unless she and Ellen want to name their own 'cabana boy'!!!

GA_WD...are you ready to open up Cabana Boy applications? We just did that in NC and it was a blast...and the gals had a great time too! :cheerleader:

Trace


Yes, as a matter of fact! It's why I've never dove DS before! :twist: I fully intend to call upon your services to chase that guppy (It is a male guppy, right? You don't want competition when it comes to the ladies, do you?) away to make it safe for us lovely SD ladies to enjoy your company underwater and topside, too! Does anyone have a portable hot tub for our tent they can bring? :cool2:

Good, get those drysuit dives in Vinny! Remember, the Great Lakes and the PNW are calling!

For you and me 110' will be a "let's see what the temp is" dive and we'll do the grand tour. I'll show you some real wrecks few people know about.

Hi, All!

Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend the HH. I just found out that I have to work during that weekend. :cool2:

But don't worry--the HH is still on! :birthday: Details on who will be leading this fine group are forthcoming.

I hope you all have fun at Dutch Springs. Enjoy the diving, the food, the company, and the camping! :twist:

Best,

Jemiah
