Updates from Cave Country.

Howdy from Cave Country.
The fires are FINALLY starting to settle down.  It was pretty NASTY there for a while.  Kudo's to all those who fight those fires.  My hats off to ALL OF THEM!
The drought down here is getting really severe.  The rivers are approaching record LOW LEVELS!

The flow in the caves is WAY DOWN now.  Even Manatee is divable (like , NO SCOOTER NEEDED).  Little River is hardly work either.  Just did the Harper Tunnel on Sunday.  BEAUTIFUL in there. (sigh)

Anyway , we need RAIN down here SO BADLY !!!
Send some our way.
But Hurrican season starts this week so ...   :o
First time I really HOPE we DO get a Tropical storm to dump some rain.

Other than the drought , the conditions are JUST AWESOME for caving!
Vis is spectacular and the flow is WAY DOWN!

And there was close to a record turnout for the NSS-CDS gathering this last weekend (Memorial Day).  The shop I hang out at hosted the social.
Good times had by all!

Take care all you Freshy-Lakers.

I'll see you down here in the Caves !!!

I'll still miss you guys Something Fierce!  I even get a craving for a good Wazee or (get this) a dive in Square Lake!   ;D
Really...I do.
