This "not diving" is getting to me..

There, there.... I feel a lot better now. And hey, how about that extra line?

Vis was terrible, could only see about 15" of the line and that was with the flashlight, even held onto the line on the way down and up for fear I'd lose it. Couldn't even see my fins under the water when I was sitting in the hole. Can't say it's a place I'd run to for another swim.

Still amazes me that you absolutely cannot see the hole in the ice from below. I came up one time and was on the wrong side of the rope and even then could not see it, had to feel around for it. Crazy. Getting a little more comfortable under the ice though...little better down times this time around.
