I have 23 minutes until September 1st - but luckily 24% and I completed our August dive in beautiful Lake Charlevoix, Michigan on August 25th. It was a shore dive off Depot Beach. This is the site of the old Charlevoix train station and there is a section of cribbing still underwater, along with railroad tracks and timber. The water was 66 degrees with 25' visibility, and we still swam around in circles for 30 minutes looking for something so large that is visible from SPACE!!! We *finally* found it because we literally ran into it. It was 12' tall, by 40' long, and 20' wide. How we didn't find this structure sooner baffles us both.
Loving Michigan diving!! We are keeping close tabs on compass headings so that when we return to Michigan next summer, we will know exactly where these underwater sites are.

August dives done out of Port St. Joe Florida. One interesting dive site with awful viz and one less interesting dive site with amazing viz.
I'm happy to see no one posted about a dive in the flood waters from Harvey

September done with 2 dives at 288 on Saturday. It would be generous to say the vis sucked.

September dive DONE for both me and 24%. We dove the SUPER UNINTERESTING Chillicothe Recreation Area in western Illinois. BORING. Like totally mediocre. But hey, it was a dive. It was nice that all the underwater sites (boats, bus, plane) were all connected via yellow ropes, but the vis was blah. The one cool thing we saw was several freshwater jellyfish. They are pretty rare but can be seen here in early Spring, and late Fall, so we were lucky to find a few.
