Thanks Grumpie for organizing yet another good day. To bad that you didn't get to dive, I was looking forward to diving with you. It was good meeting the other divers that came up to dive. Everyone pitched in and helped each other. That was greatly appreciated by each of us at different times of the day. The weather was good if you didn't mind the wind and "slight chop". The wind changed from the North to the NE and pushed the brown river water to the South as the day went on. It just proved to me that there are currents in superior (albeit slight). The waves started out big and they grew as the day went on. The giant stride entry went very well but leaving the water in the surf was challenging at best. Trying to time out the big waves was almost impossible but if a person was patient, he could let the waves push you in 6" at a time until it was safe to stand. I was more worried about puncturing the dry suit than getting banged up. Some of us were "rolled" several times. Great experience though, and it will be a long time before I loose the memory of it. I took about 24 photos that turned out somewhat and I will post them in this thread 4 at a time in six different replies (after my 9:00 meeting). These photos are resized to make them small enough to post. One of these days I will need figure out how to add photos in the "album".

Thank you again to all the divers who came up, and to all the families that put up with them.
