However, my better judgement said not to.

Be forewarned, I will be at future events!  :lmao:

Darn that better judgement stuff!! :o But you can bet we'll be ready for ya when you do make it to a future event!!! :teeth:

Mitch...your better judgement lied to you!!

we had such a riot on our Sunday am dive that I'm sure you would have been glad you drove all that way for no vis!!! I'm still laughin' about stuff we talked about :teeth:

doubles, pony bottles and assorted other topics were discussed in detail ( and rather loudly, too) :-D

see ya next time!!

Kim

Kim, thanks for the thoughts. I imagine that it got just a little rowdy at times up there. You can bet that yours truly would have been smack dab in the middle of it, throwing his share of darts (as well as taking a few! :lmao: )

When I finished my gig on Saturday and got home, I was so exhausted that I could not muster the energy to pack up my gear and put it in my truck, much less drive the four hours it would have taken to get up there. The "better judgement" had more to do with whether to push myself when I am exhausted.

I do look forward to the next event I can attend whether it is this year or next.

Lions and tigers and bears, OH MY, I don't think were in Kansas anymore Toto. :taz:

I think I'm still hung over, and my virgin ears, I mean don't I look innocent. We did get some serious stuff addressed as well like the next location for a happy hour ... :dance:

I had too much fun and enjoyed myself too much. One word of warning to those thinking about coming on the next one. Don't fall asleep in the chair. :dance:

I enjoyed the camping, of course my tent was a little differnt that most, but I somehow managed to find my way there, or stumbled at least.

We also learned new dive signals such as "you ain't right" and "air head" and my favorite "wait a f@c&ing minute".

All I can say to my lost weekend dive buddies, "Ya ain't right" :wakawaka:

I look forward to the next one.

James :taz:

I think we should have a contest, amongst the unlucky people who weren't on the Sunday AM dive, to guess who the "you ain't right" signal is for!!!

WW- remember when ZD and I demonstrated our fast acting reflexes and we caught you on the dock just as your butt was about to slightly skim the water... maybe you don't remember!!! :twist: GOOD TIMES!
