Hmmm......I will guess it will freeze January 11th. There has been a cold snap so maybe I will get lucky. However, if I win a hearty "congratulations" would be enough for me. I don't think I want to hear my lady say something like "Honey, who sent you a dead fish in the mail!?

Who says you can't dive in the winter Connor? Just last weekend I dove in Crystal Springs with the manatees and then over in West Palm the next day. There is plenty o' diving to be found around here. Now, I don't think I would dive in the gulf....brrrrrr! 65 degrees!? That may be a bit crazy, even for me. I would be willing to bet though that the Wisconsin crew would dive it happily in winter in nothing but thier skivvies.....although that particular image is rather painful on the optic nerve.

Diving in a vent in -20 weather? THAT is crazy. The shrinkage alone would scare the hell outta me.
