For a lake dive, it was really great. Water temps a little chilling (59F) but with hoods and 7mil it was fine. Amazingly over 20’ Vis (at times even around 30’) which blew me away. Mostly been in blue water with 100’ Vis , lakes have been 8-10 at best in past. If you’re lucky. Bill Parker (great diver & Super observer) and Adam Galloway (getting his wings and doing well) Buddied up with me as we had 1 no show. We met Brian, Mike & Yvonne as well as several other divers from MYscubaShopTexas in Weatherford getting advanced certs of different levels. It turned out to be a good day for diving. Aren’t they all?
