Scuba

For his Christmas-Birthday-Eagle Scout-Graduation gift, I took my brother on a surprise adventure (he didn't even know he was getting on a plane) to Key West, FL where we earned our scuba certifications together. (Thanks to Mom and Dad who helped to fund our education!)

We were trained at Dive Key West. When they said that we'd have personal instruction, they weren't kidding! Dan and I had our instructor all to ourselves!

Megan looks like Daryl Hannah with her mask on and regulator in her mouth.

I have no idea what I look like in my gear. I'm not sure I want to find out.

Dan just looks like himself -- plus gear.

 

 

My brother Dan is on the left and Megan, our Scuba Instructor is in the middle. That's me on the right.

 

I'm certified as a Scuba Schools International (SSI) Level 1 Diver and have logged open water dives in:

  • One of Key West's Quarries. Can't remember the name of it at the moment.

  • "Lake 7" in Detroit Lakes, which is right across the street from "Lake 6." Those folks up north -- they amaze me with their creativity.

 

I have considered specializing in Search and Recovery. But for now, I'm happy simply to submerge.

Useful Links:

  • Dive Rescue International provides public safety diving (PSD) training programs for public safety agents in Colorado. They offer dry suit, haz-mat, ice ops, salvage, marine ops and crime scene tech courses.
