I work for the Air Force in San Antonio, and am currently on assignment in Pensacola, Florida. I have completed AOW, and Nitrox Rescue, and Master Diver certifications. I always swam like a fish, now I just do it under water.

I’m hoping to push on for my Dive Master and Instructor certifications, but I need to get a few more dives in before I can go there. Help me out - let’s go diving!

Update! My eleven year old daughter just got her C-card. Now the fish can help me entertain at least one of my daughters and I can get more diving in.

PastorG - 3/22/2011 8:08 AM Perhaps I should add that the Oconee Nuclear plant sends small nerf balls through the pipes to clean them and then has a system for catching them before they get into the lake, but like many systems it occasionally doesn’t work exactly right and so the lake bed around the outflow pipes is covered in small nerf balls that escaped the system. Yep, after re-reading the blog, that little fact would help to make more sense.... Thanks for pointing that out. -G-

divershaun - 3/02/2010 10:41 AM well this is actually a BC, im assuming you are replying to my horse collar bc post. You can orally iflate or hook ur hose to it and power inflate, and its in the same shape as a snorkeling one, but these are a lil more ’high tech’ lol. these were the first bc’s, if you dove, this is what you used, so i kno a lot of old timers have them, its just finding one who is willing to sell theres. id like to get my own brand new one, but i dont feel like paying two hundred dollars...

RedRedus85 - 3/02/2010 8:51 AM My guess is late spring for the next test dive. I hope to get in some Scuba dives logged before then.

RedRedus85 - 10/31/2009 10:04 AM We can always use an extra diver in the water. The next test date is not set, but it will be early Nov. or after the new year. I’ll post as I get the info myself. Let me know when you get back to Texas!
