The photos below are from a training dive at Lake Rawlings on Sept 29, 2002. | |
This is Brad Beskins and Tom Sawicki. |
They compare their lights, Brad is now one up with his new Halcyon HID light. |
The lake was rather crowded as you can see. | This is Gordon, some say he looks like "Flash Gordon". I know him as "SPLASH Gordon". |
Brad, the holder of a GUE cave card, gets ready to try and show me up. | I keep forgetting about all the OW1 that come here. |

I think I see scuba Steve's bald head in there.. | Why is Brad, Tom, and Brian hanging out down on the dock????? |
Oh, I see now, Brad you should have just told her your name........ | The lake is loaded with fish. |
Just throw a chip in and they will come.. | The next three photos show the size of the lake.. |

This is one of the statues that are in the lake. | A closer look. |
This is "Gina", she shot a couple of photos of Tom and Myself because Brad and Brian missed the first training dive. | Tom shows perfect buoyancy control, he is better than anyone I have seen so far. |
We do an "S" drill. | As you can see we both have it right. |
The next dive everyone showed up. | Brad and Tom now do the "S" drill while Brian watches and I photograph. |
They did it no problem. | Then work toward the surface together. |
Brian signals OOA and Tom donates his primary reg. | Brian quickly sinks. |
Then kicks up the bottom. | Tom helps him to get his position right. This was Brian's first time doing the "S" drill, no one ever gets it right on the first try. |
