Scuba Forum / General / May 2006Memorial Day dives
So far I have booked the sunday dive on SG and all day on Monday with Conrad on Miss Conduct out of Pompano Beach. He still has 2 spots open for Monday morning and 4 for the afternoon. I haven't booked anything for Saturday yet, but will before the morning is over. We're flying down so we will be renting tanks. We're staying in Delray Beach. What are y'all doing? > What are y'all doing? Current plans are for me to leave out of Houston on either Tuesday or Wednesday and pick up a new car for Grace in Pensacola (she rolled her Jeep WJ on US-59 a couple of weeks ago when an idiot in a Mustang abruptly changed lanes into her)... Turns out that for the configuration that she wanted on the new vehicle, out of 53 dealerships that I've contacted, the first one to have exactly what she wanted was over in Pensacola... Nothing in Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, or Alabama with the exact configuration that she wanted... She'll be driving back the next day and I'll start working my way down towards the Keys... No reservations for hotels, I'll just wing it as I travel... I'll probably hit various sites on the way back to Houston... Not sure if I'll hit the Oriskany on this trip though (I heard that many of the shops are booked full for the rest of the year).. > to Houston...

I'd give it a while to attract some tasty treats > I'd give it a while to attract some tasty treats Well, I'm bringing a pair of HP-120s, just in case... And at least one pair of AL80s and perhaps even a pair of steel-72s... The steel-72s are *very* nice on sidemount... >> What are y'all doing? > [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > wing it as I travel... >snip< I left it until two weekends ago to try and book a room for Sat night in KL. I could only find suites, or places with a 3 night minimum. Good luck on trying to stay down there. There are at least four of us driving down, and back to Likkerdale on Sunday.

Also, a few dives with you guys on the MisConduct would be rad. > So far I have booked the sunday dive on SG and all day on Monday with > Conrad on Miss Conduct out of Pompano Beach.

Rick Simms *************************************************************** "Success is the ability to go from one failure to another with no loss of enthusiasm." Winston Churchill >> So have I. 77 degrees this morning! > >It had better warm up before next Sunday. 77 is like a heat wave to us Yankees. Ya'll left and took all the nice weather with ya! Rick Simms "California, the only state where a high school can issue a kid a condom then expels him for praying for a chance to use it." Lucky for everyone, you know where it went. See you later this week. Keep your fingers crossed that the weather here is OK. The same front I suspect hit you is on its way here. Hopefully, it will have minimum impact and will be gone before you arrive or, if not that, before the weekend.

I've gotta call Curtis this evening to see what he has planned to date. Gregg, Nitespark, Grumman and whoever else is coming down, give me a call on my cell # whenever you hit town and we'll put something together. Rick Simms 502-386-7179 To all that plan on attending. I can be available Wednesday and Thursday, I'm tied up Friday and Saturday evenings. I had hoped to have a get together at the house on Friday evening, but it's not to be. I'm planning on driving to Key Largo Sunday AM, doing the PM dives and heading back north Sunday night. At present, I don't have anything specific planned for Monday. As of the moment, I plan on doing a couple of simple dives with Limey Dave, Rick and whoever else Dave lines up for Friday AM. That and Sunday on the Grove are the extent of my planning. If you've got something else going or want to get something going, diving, drinks, dinner, whatever, and want company, let me know. You can send messages to pleebell2@bellsouth.net , which goes to my spamtrap but, if it says anything about Memorial Day, will get read anyway or delete the 2 and send it to my real e-mail address.

As of last night that's not looking so good either. I have an appointment on Friday AM, which only leaves a possible 'Hollywood start' for us to be able to do Friday. Otherwise, it'll be an afternoon trip unless we shift it to Thursday, which is dicey for me workwise. Sorry.

We're scheduled for morning and afternoon dives with Splashdown on Saturday, plus we're doing the morning dives with Silent World before the afternoon Spiegel dives. > I'm flying in Wednesday afternoon to Lauderdale and should be in by > 4:00PM.

Will do, though after a sleepless red-eye and with dives the next morning up in Boynton, we'll be turning in very early Friday night. I'm sure we can at least hold out until happy hour, though. >>So far I have booked the sunday dive on SG and all day on Monday with >>Conrad on Miss Conduct out of Pompano Beach.

I don't suppose we could talk you into staying a bit closer to the concentration of Memorial Day visitors? Lee >>Rick, I should be arriving around 1900-2100hrs.

Unfortunately, I had already made the reservations early, not knowing exactly where everyone was staying and didn't want to run into possibly not getting a hotel room. I was originally going to stay in Key Largo the entire time but after looking at the itinerary, decided to go North. Andy > Lee, I will be arriving on Friday.
