Nice!!! Congrats!!!
 

Appreciate the response Mr, Digger RJ and lately, my posts seem to have common theme but every dive is very unique ....
 

Keep at it, you never know what you will find next!
 

find fresh water spots that had rafts or dive boards or slides in deep water
those are the gold mine spots in deeper waters
i wish i could get out more with my hookah(s)
I have a SNUBA set up too
looking to get a Blue Nemo next

my earlier albums are more impressive - especially 2012
had health issues the last 3 yrs - didnt get out as much

if you go to my Flikr page posted above you will find an article on research too
try and find old pics of lakes ponds in your area
also ask some local old timers
almost every body of swimming waters had a raft or platforms
they started getting rid of them when there were too many drownings
here are some pics to motivate you
