Re: Damn Yankee Spearfishing tour
The dvd should be here in a couple weeks ;D. I can't count how many times a day, I close my eyes and am transported back to the Florida middlegrounds. I find myself standing on the Holy Spear-its dive platform listening to the steady drone of the diesel, waiting for it to idle down. The anticipation builds when it does idle down, now I know it will only be a few short moments unti I hear the horn. Is this going be the drop where I get the big one? I quickly do a final check of my gear and suck all off the air out of my BC. I hear the horn and leap off the platform like a stallion out of the gates at the Kentucky Derby. I have now lept into another world, a world where I am only a visitor. A world that is quiet and peaceful, void of all the noise and stress of the daily grind. A calmness accompanies the pressure as I settle myself down and control my breathing. Zero to 100 feet in less than a minute, I hit the brakes on my inflater coming to a perfect stop 30 to 40 feet off the bottom. (:-[Everytime I think of Tom Cruise on mission impossible when he is on the rope above the computer) I scan the terrain looking for structure and targets..... Then the damn phone rings, and I have to go back to work.... |
