Oronogo Divers
   The photo above was taken at the end of our trip last weekend to Blue Water Lake at Oronogo MO.  We did lots of diving and had a great time! 
 
   We have had some great diving at the latter part of the season.  Michael and James discovered fresh water jellyfish in the interstate lake at the Cozad interchange.  Jim and Shawn dived there and also found lots of them.  Shawn captured several in a jar, took them home and shot video of them.  (Yes, they are real!)  Take a look at the short video on You Tube: 
 
   And we're not done yet.  We have two Lake Diving Weekends in Octobver--the 9th & 10, and the 23rd & 24th.
 
   The Nebraska winter is just around the corner.  In order to help get through it, see the trips below.  We have checked and we can add more people to the Cayman trip--the hotel has room and we can get airfare at the same price.
 
   We can't add on to the Philippines trip because we have the entire hotel reserved.  But there is one spot left.  Our travel wholesaler just returned from there and she reports seeing pigmy seahorses, frog fish, ghost pipe fish and much more.  The resort was nice and the food very good.  So, if you want that coveted last spot, don't wait too long.
 
   Need equipment?  We have one of our training units left for sale, size small.  It's a steal at this price.  Details are here:
 
 
  See you in the water,  Come on out to Sandy Channel for one or both of the Lake Diving Weekends.  October's the best month of the year for diving.

Blue Hole 
October 22-24, 2010

Blue Hole

   
   Join us for our last local trip of the year to Santa Rosa NM.  This is a fun trip with easy,diving, warm water, and, usually warm weather.  We will also be able to dive in Rock Lake, a natural lake on private property that is simply sensational.  We used to dive that lake all the time till the ranch changed hands.  Now we have finally gained access again.
 
 
   For more information on diving Rock Lake, just call.
 
Grand Cayman
February 5-12, 2011

Compass Point

  
(This trip is full, but we can add on more people at the same price.)
 
   Join us next February for our return to Grand Cayman.  It's been quite a few years since we were there, so it's time to go back.  Cayman has some of the best diving found in the Caribbean, and the East End of the island has some of the best diving in the Cayman Islands. 
 
   We negotiated a great price for this trip so take advantage of it and dive with us.  You can find more information on our website:

Philippines 
March 3-12, 2011

Philippines Underwater

  
(ONE SPOT LEFT!)
 
   We are returning to the Philippines next March.  Our trip price is nearly unbelievable, but the Philippines are the biggest bargain in dive travel today.
 
   The critters here will really stretch your imagination.  The service is second to none in the world.  And, it's Winter in Nebraska.  Why would you not want to go on this trip?
 
   Since it is such a bargain price, it's almost full already.  we only have six spaces left at this writing.  So if you'd like to get away from the Nebraska winter and experience some of the best diving in the world, don't wait too long or it will be filled up.
