I am now Rescue Certified!!!

Well, it was a tiring day, and it starting out kinda shaky. Once we all got to the site, our instructor said we should reschedule. But we stuck around for a little while longer, and watched the waves a bit more and realized that if we time the waves right, it would be no problem. There were some HUGE waves that would come in sets of about 3-4, then we'd have 5-10 mins. of little waves. So, out we went, did our stuff....and 3 hours later I'm DONE!

The class was strenuous, but a very good course to take. For anyone who hasn't done it, I highly recommend it

Good deal Becky, glad to see you are furthering your diving knowledge and education and your academic education also. As a scientist and diver myself I hope your career and passion intertwine as mine does.

Good luck.

P.S.

So you hop???

What is hop? LOL

And what kind of work do you do that involves diving? I'm always interested in what others do

Just ribbing you a little about the typo in your profile that says you will hop. I think it may have been that you ran out of characters before you ran out of sentence.

Anyway I am a freshwater mussel biologist. See link on sig line. What field do you hop to specialize in?

And I'm applying to graduate schools this week actually, apps. go out on Friday!!
I'm applying for a M.S. in Marine Biology. My goal is to eventually work for NOAA or the Fish and Wildlife (but really NOAA would be my first choice).
