Peacock Springs State Park, near Branford, FL 5 Feb 99
This was a class to certify 5 of us for Cavern diving. Herb gave the class with assistance from Sam. Herb Sugden has been doing Cave Diving for years, and very good at it. The class was stressful, thanks to Herb, but very enlightening as to diving techniques, positioning, trim, and safety. It was certainly the most difficult diving class to date. The dives were done in the Orange and Peacock Springs at the Peacock Springs State Park, between Branford and Live Oaks, Florida.

Locked my keys in the rental car 20 miles from nowhere, but AAA saved the day with
a local locksmith, that even knew my uncle Gene in Live Oaks.
