Blue Lagoon-July 7th

[Snarfal]

Its been over a year since I've been diving and I think that THIS weekend is the time to put that to an end =) My plan is to hit the lagoon this Saturday right when they open and get a couple of dives in before noon. My goals are basically to just get back in the water and meander around enjoying some underwater time.

I also plan on bringing out a camera for the first time and seeing about taking some pics as well.


I know its probably earlier than normal, but anyone else is welcome to join me.

I have a smokin' new computer to play with so I'll join you; I just need to get it wet a few times before I take it to Florida in August.

I probably won't get there before 9:30 though...not sure what time they open so I may get there while you're on your first dive.

Have you reserved a shelter yet?

[Snarfal]

I called and reserved Shelter 2 on the main beach FYI

I couldn't go to this because I had some previous arrangements for a 'treasure hunt' at Lake Travis today (pontoon boat parking lot for 4th of July!). We scored lots of booty.

Anyway, I'm heading to Blue Lagoon in the morning, anyone interested? I plan to be there around 10:00 and be in the water by 11:00 for a few hours. Anyone interested in diving doubles, can lights, backplates, single wings, double wings, running reels, spools, shooting bags, etc no problem. Sorry, no scooters. Yet.

You are probably there already but I hope you have better viz than we did yesterday. There must have been 4 classes of divers along with a couple of groups like us, going in and out all morning. Everything was all stirred up - even standing waist deep in water at the shore gearing up, you could see sand swirling around everywhere.

I'm glad I went though....got to see my computer in action - and Snarfal, after you left, I figured out how to change it from metric to imperial measurements

yeah, it was crazy once everyone started jumping in the water. The lagoon had to have about 40 or so divers in the water that morning.

That said, being there right as they opened, and I believe the first one in the water, I had about 15' vis or so. By the time Holly and I got in, vis had dropped to about 5' or so.
