NFSA Social at Madison

[Kelly Jessop]

It was a lot of fun. We cooked about 70 hamburgers, and 65 hot dogs. Almost a gallon of potato salad was eaten and a dozen big fat tomatoes, a quart of pickles, 2 pints of relish, almost a quart of sauer kraut and about 90 cans of soft drinks/water. About 3 dozen cookies were gobbled down along with 4 big bags of potato chips. It took about 75 pounds of ice to keep everything cool.

Big complement to the chef,did an excellent job,and he probably lost 3 pounds of water weight. Plus he made my day with sauerkraut for the hot dogs.

Everybody stay tuned for other events.

...65 hot dogs....almost a quart of sauer kraut

That doesn't add up! Evidently there are people who eat hot dogs without sauerkraut! Inconceivable!

Wish we could have been there - glad everybody had a great time.

You weren't fitted correctly, then. The chest strap should run under the drysuit inflator. You might want to adjust the shoulder straps to reposition it. Personally, I wasn't a big fan of the out of the box chest strap because it would loosen and lengthen so I replaced it with a static strap.

rob, that would definitely put the strap under the breastal area. my inflator hits just above the nipple line.

and thanks for the good idea, lori, but the pic at the pavilion is *in* a sports bra. i just need to lose more lbs.

Hey girl, how did that first SM dive go? Fred,Jean, and I left before y'all came up.

the first was...not good. too much flow to tell what, if anything, was going on. lots of panting.

the second through third were...eh. the fourth sucked ass beyond all ass sucking ever before on the planet.

but by the fifth & sixth & seventh, i was starting to see why people subject themselves to this on purpose! those went pretty well.

Well sounds like you had fun. :/ The flow was crazy that day. Keep with it you'll love it.

Polly and I just got back from our week in Florida (back to where we have regular internet). It was purely by coincidence that we were able to go to the social. We had a great time, however, and hope to make it to more of them.

My first sidemount dive was in Madison too

My results were much like yours. The current kicked my @$$, and my tanks were flopping around all over the place. I felt like a fish out of water. I went back and rebuilt my harness, and things got a lot better. That was around 1977. Back then, you didn't admit to any FL diver that you dove sidemount, because the only sidemount divers they had ever seen were CDG, and the CDG didn't know about silt technique back then

What is "CDG"

I assume it's not refering to the code for Charle DeGaulle airport

Cave Diving Group (of Great Britain). They mostly dive in sumps.
