Hi everyone, I just wanted to tell you all about the dive. It was about six feet down in the pool. I killed the hour and it was a lot of fun. Everything went well but for one thing that didn't go well: my gloves. I have never had that problem before. My hands fell into the dry suit sleeves and the gloves filled up with air and I could not get my hands back inside the gloves, so I said forget it and let's dive. I think I need to get my sleeves shortened because they are a bit too long anyway.

My total dive time so far is 280 min. I am working with Diveheart to get myself certified. I have been studying hard to pass the PADI test.

Here is the link to some of my new photos. http://matt55125.tripod.com/scuba

Take care everyone Matt.

Thanks everyone for the nice support like always. Great to hear from you all. And as far as the test, I don't think I need to worry about passing, I've narrowed it down pretty good, but am still nervous, it means so much to me. Anyway thanks again and take care!
Matt
