    Cool No Inspection

    Dove Jughole in Feb. and ranger didn't check anything. Dove it once before (several years ago) and ranger did a proper inspection then. I guess it is up to the ranger.

    They used to check gear at Manatee too, but haven't in many years. I guess there are too many cavedivers now, to go through all that trouble.

    I can't imagine how a ranger could truly check thoroughly for duckweed. I've found that stuff in the oddest places...

    Shirley you're not serious? No, I'm not, but do stop calling me Shirley.

    Good grief, there's no mercy, is there, Walter? LOL...I completely left myself open on that one! Where's the icon for smacking myself in the forehead?!

    I MEANT...I've found duckweed in the crevices of my DS pockets, in between my wing and harness, in my ears, in the elastic band of my BT, in the seams of my hood, in my teeth, under the face protector of my computer, in cam bands...sigh...I need to get out of this cube and go diving!

    I had an earache one time. My MD checked and found Duckweek growing in my ear!

    Last year I dove Jug and we never got an inspection, in fact we never saw a ranger period!

    There are 3 kinds of people in this world; those who are good at math, and those who are not.

    Walter might be finding duckweed in even stranger places if he happens to be using a P-valve on his drysuit.....
