    The latest edition of the NACD Journal is in the mail. It has a memorial to Debra Green and it’s appropriate that my first article and ad is in this issue because Debra was responsible for getting me to volunteer.

    BTW, Jug bedding plane is sidemount, not backmount, at least it should not be.

    Hey, is anyone up for Jug Hole this coming Saturday (10/6)afteroon (around 1 PM) and possibly Peacock on Sun morning. I am Intro and side mount. Will probably go through the bedding plane in Jug but not the diamond sands restriction.

    It looks like four or five of us will be diving Peacock this weekend. We’ll use Dive Outpost as sort of a base. May go to Suwannee River Rendezvous Saturday night if they have music. Get in touch if you’re up that way.

    Had some nice dives at Peacock. Viz is still off a little and you can see the effects of the flooding. Water is still over the steps.
