Hello,
It's been awhile since I have made it out to the water to post anything. So today went snorkeling at a lake for a couple of hours. I had an enjoyable time. Found the bullets in about 3 feet of water and 4 or 5 inches down. Don't know the era they came from and quite frankly they were a surprise to me. Although I know where I went has some history to the place. Found some clad and junk too.

Do you wet suit or dry suit? Couple hours in the lake, you
probably dry suit. Interesting finds. I spend a fair amount
of time in Lake Washington in the winter. Other area lakes
when the water warms and I have time. I'm n71 now, so I
don't tolerate the cold water as well as a couple years ago.
Nice to see another crazy man out there in the winter.
 

rehless,

I do the drysuit. Just need more weight than I prefer but stay nice and toasty.

Seventy-One! That is awesome, my hat goes off to you. When you do get out this year, post a few goodies---I'd enjoy seeing what you come up with. Stay in touch if you want to do a shallow..... snorkel or tank.
 

mcmurphi,
Been out three times recently, wet suit. Mama, it's cold.
Where do you go there in Tacoma? Was in American,
once years ago. Got a gold chain, eyeballed, looking for
some thing else. Would love to hook up some time. I do
a lot of snorkeling and get a lot of goodies in the shallows.

rehless,

Sounds good we should do that. Maybe sometime we can meet for coffee and trade some stories. Over the years mainly dirt diggin but since I scuba I thought water makes sense for MD. So with that said, I have a couple of places that I've done some research on and I'm really wanting to get there. Stay in touch. If you email me directly I will give you my phone number if you want.

Thanks,
