Speaking of Thanksgiving, I too will be in the High Springs Branford area to 
scuba dive around Nov. 18-25 and would welcome the chance to put a "real 
live face" with the personality of other cave diver listserv members.  I am 
not a cave diver, but I will be there completing a cavern diver course as a 
sampling into the speciality.

Although, I spent half my life living in Miami, FL and the other half in the 
Washington DC area, my extensive scuba diving experience is strictly 
Atlantic & Gulf Wreck Diving.  I have carefully read Ken's NSS-CDS / NACD 
Full Cave Diving Safety Notice and have a lot of reservations about entering 
any underwater cavern or cave.  I agree with it whole-heartedly, that is why 
I will be trying my first cavern dives in a cavern diving course.

I have been lurking for some time on this list and fully respect the 
opinions of it's members.  Any suggests or recommendations for a completely 
novice caver would be greatly appreciated so I do not look, feel or act like 
a puttz in the presence of such a vast array of experienced cavers.  Should 
I dive dry or use my wet suit?  How would my gear configuration very between 
wreck and cave?  My instructor's itinerary of some of our dive sites are 
Ginni, Blue Grotto, Devils Den, Peacock, Orange Grove, Little River, Neil 
Watt's place?  Any comments about these sites or others to try for cavern? 
 Thxs for reading, safe diving always, Dawn (SalvanD@wa*.co*)
