Scuba Forum / General / July 2007Costeau Memorial at Portage Quarry Ohio
Kevin, Denny, and I made three dives on Saturday at Portage Quarry. The viz was pretty good on the first and things were stirred up on the second, but pretty good over the the silo. I wanted to take video on the second dive, but no go on the vis. I did take some still photos, though. I did not know this but there is a Jacques Costeau memorial on top the silo. You can see the pictures at www.marshallkarp.com It was a humbling moment when I read the inscription and for a second or two, I forgot that I was underwater and in the quarry. It was a very emotional experience. "marshallkarp@gmail.com" <marshallkarp@gmail.com> pounded away at his keyboard resulting in: :I did take some still photos, though.

All I have out here are sixgills, wolf eels, GPO's, several hundred assorted fish, and a few thousand inverts. Great photos. * i'm much more than a princess but you don't have a name for it yet here on earth. > On Jul 22, 12:29 pm, "marshallk...@gmail.com" <marshallk...@gmail.com> > wrote: [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > and paddlefish?

You could always move back.

Rather hover over you and drop food pellets on you, then wait to see the feeding frenzy as the Killer Trout try to eat yer head, or at least impose a DIR-style disappearing mask drill. What can you expect from a girl who sees the world through Oreo coloured glasses?
