Scuba Forum / General / October 2003Gilboa Christmas Tree Drowning
The 2003 Christmas Tree Drowning takes place this weekend at Gilboa. If anyone is gonna be there, come on over and shake hands and/or join us on the dive. We'll be over by the airplane dock Saturday morning. Watch for a black Olds minivan with Ontario plates. Since we can't all get down to Georgia for Mick's memorial service. perhaps we could hang a decoration on the tree for him.

I wear a full 3mm with a 2mm hood/vest, gloves and boots even in summer when the water temp is a toasty 80. I was thinking of getting a 5mm with winter coming soon.

C|;^{) I'm expecting something in the low 40's this weekend. Guess it's time to break out the long undies.

Guess it's time > to break out the long undies. My brother is coming out next month. He and his girlfriend just got certified off Catalina. They wore full 7mms for their open water dives. He figured with our expected temps around 76 for that time of year, he'd just wear a bathing suit. I think I'll get my new 5mm before he arrives and loan him my old 3mm. As a DM said once when some tourist expressed puzzlement over me donning a hood: "I've never heard anyone complain about being too warm" and then promptly put on her own hood. suds >> I'm expecting something in the low 40's this weekend.

I've dived in mid-80's water plenty of times in a 3/2 full suit and never felt over-dressed.

Lake Travis in the summer... Heat stroke putting a 3mm on and quite uncomfortable until around 60 ft, at which time you find out that the 3mm probably wasn't thick enough... > On Wed, 29 Oct 2003 23:25:12 GMT, "suds" wrote ... > >As a DM said once when some tourist expressed puzzlement [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > uncomfortable until around 60 ft, at which time you find out that the > 3mm probably wasn't thick enough...

Cold and dark by the time you get there... Hay John, can I come and play with you all in the water? Are you going to bring thoses special cookies for me to eat? If you do I will bring some of my stuff. Hay bud, looking forward to it, going ot be a great time even if it is early this year but you knwo how times can be.

No more wading in and making the rest of us look like pipsqueaks. And speaking of pipsqueaks, will you please refrain from donning yer peevalve apparatus in full public view. My wife is still giggling about that little episode. JF "It's a damn poor mind that can only think of one way to spell a word." - Andrew Jackson (1767-1845)
