Was nice to meet you, someone else who has to travel from Southern AZ to dive cave. Going up to Lake Pleasant Monday just to get the gear wet (and work on my trim); won't be back in FL until mid-March.

Cool to meet you, too! I want to hit Vista Point and play on Pete's lines. As it is 4.5 hours up there, I have to pretty much plan the whole weekend for it.

I cannot fault the flow of my training. An adjustment on one thing affects something else. Something else has to be adjusted. Unfortunately, I need the eye of another to see what is going on. I have the major adjustments in, I needed a bit of fine tuning. And - Sigh - I need a lot more practice. Wish I lived closer to water.

Still - I have only 33 cave dives since training last year, and that in just three one-week trips. Not so bad for a beginner! :D

I hear you on the back troubles. I'm just trying to keep mine strong and pretend it isn't all mucked up

Same here! However body armor everyday at work for up to 16 hours a day is taking its toll!

Looks like I just missed you. I was there the last two weekends. I'm heading home tomorrow.
