Troy Spring aka Troy Springs State Park
Branford, FL
Water Type: Fresh
Entry Type: Shore
Monday Oct. 19, 2015. Accompanied my dive buddy & Instructor, Bill Foote, with his students at Troy.
DiveBuddy.com buddy, Roger Marquis flew in from Maine to continue his Advance Open Water training, and Debra Buxton, in from the UK, was advancing her Open Water certification as well.

For those interested in seeing what I shot, the Troy w Bill, Roger & Debra album will also show a few calculating, poorly trained, and inconsiderate divers, who appear to be breaking the law, defacing a historic landmark and stealing the nails from the Madison bones on the bottom of the spring run.

These same divers caused an avalanche in the deeper regions before Bill and I could get some photos, thereby totally destroying the visibility for our class for several hours as well. The good news is, that we turned part of the dive into "limited Visibility" training. :-)
