Beach Clean up

[Lion Fludd]

Hello Everyone I'm writing just to tell a little bit about my experience. I went to Radio Island in north carolina for a beach clean up, it was very nice to do something good and get some diving in also. That's the good part now for the different part, This was only my seventh dive and I never dove in Salt water only quarries so let's just say very different alot more than you read in a book. I was at 16 lbs and still couldn't go down...so sad and I wanted to get all that trash..LOL after a while one of the more experienced divers showed me a way to go down by following the rocks..so funny. once we got down the viz was good about 10-15 ft until tide came in ...he showed me how to cut some sea urchine well that was after i got stuck in the leg by one...and we feed the fishes, they came right up to your hand and started eating...oh yea speaking of first time in ocean...the currents aren't anything to smile at either they almost had me about to eat my breakfast again...well at least I got to dive and learn some new things so next time I'll be at the least more prepared. So far all you beginners like Me. Don't let the sea tame you, you tame the Sea

Congrats on your first ocean dive! How awesome that a more experienced diver took you under his wing. I am going to participate in my first trash clean up this weekend too! I'm really excited about using my skills to do something good and still have a lot of fun doing it! Anyway, just wanted to say that I'm glad that you learned some things and had a good time.
