Re: Dive Rescue
Simulating my falling off the boat backwards in the pool before we
left town.
All that is done in the pool so we can make sure all our gear is in
good working order before we get in the deep water.
Trust me. Its better to find in a problem in the pool. Not in 90 ft.
of water!

Re: Dive Rescue
Powerup, I don't think I would want to make you angry in person! As far as diving goes - No Way!! I can swim and enjoy doing so in "cement ponds" just like Ellie May Clampett. I am an adequate swimmer but not great. I also enjoy the ocean from cruise liners (two transatlantic crossings and one Pacific ocean trip from Honolulu to Los Angeles).
Between suffering from a little bit of claustrophobia and not feeling at ease in water the thought of scuba diving is scary to me.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

Powerup...Are there any here on the forum that you would really like to be in a "rescue mode" with? j/k 
Had a friend show me an introduction to the buddy system. If I've got to change mouth pieces with someone I'd rather it be my wife. But, she might not rescue me!! j/k

Re: Dive Rescue
CC1,
The cooleset part of underwater diving, is when you realize that you are
breathing under water!
So very cool. I have some pictures that we took under water on the same
training.
They were taking with a disposable water proof wal-mart camera. I will try
and scan them, and then post them.
Not sure how good the quality will be. We now have a digital underwater camera.
CC1 I hope I didnt look to mean in the photo. LOL.....
