I've already got plans for Sun, so if you go to Christmas you'll have to go back again with me!  Non-Divers keep asking me if I've dove there (all too frequently) so I have to go sometime.

Have you dove it this year???

No.   :-[  I just thought your comment was cute.

I was hoping that you might have some info on vis.  It almost sounded like you thought it was a joke to dive that lake.  I have dove it before with great vis.

The best way, I have found, is to do a boat dive.

Nah, I had guppy written all over my face (not to mention "idiot" in a neon sign on my forehead  :Smile  ).  I had ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA there was an actual lake in MN named Christmas Lake.  Imagine my embarassment  :-[ when I realized Robert was making an actual suggestion  :o .  (can't stick my foot in my mouth too often, my mouth's not big enough  Tongue  )  That'll learn me  Wink

Christmas lake at noon on a weekend is worse than 35 w at 5pm....WHere is that special location that gave you permission to park?

Great time on Sunday at Christmas Lake ;D  A big thank you to Terry for the use of his tanks and his boat, for being my dive buddy (and being willing and SO INCREDIBLY NICE to literally hold my hand during the dive to keep me with the group (I'm still working on my neutral buoyancy and slow ascents).  Thank you also to Terry, Robert and Kerry for making a guppy feel so welcome!  It seemed like everyone had a good time.

Old Chicago afterwards was a great choice for dinner with really good stuffed pizza and tasty appetizers. 

Hope to dive with you again soon.
Michelle
