Welcome to Black Dog Divers...Thank you for visiting us and for diving with us!
YOU HAVE GOT TO SEE THIS!!!!
This video was made, produced and distributed (!) by George Butler. George did his open water with Tim and the team at Sport Chalet. George is a great person to be around and someone who is enthusiastic about going out and diving! For more of George's videos go to YouTube and put 'georgehbutler' into the search field. WELL DONE GEORGE!!
I would love to be able to show other people's stories and pictures so send them to me so we can spotlight you and your adventures in diving.
DIVING THE LITTLE SARA
Once again I get to thank AMERICAN DIVERS for a great trip out into the Gulf. It is still a little early for the really good diving conditions and the tropical fish, but with water temps in the top end of the 60's I was almost too hot in a 5mm wetsuit....a far cry from the La Jolla Shores!!
I have posted pictures of the dive and a short dive report. The big deal was nearly losing my camera....again! I love the boat, the people and the service from American Divers. Tim and his team make it safe and fun BUT .....they will play country music between dives...YOU CAN TAKE THE BOY OUT OF ENGLAND, BUT YOU CANNOT TAKE ENGLAND OUT OF THE BOY! I may live in Texas, but I still have no boots, no hat and no ear for country music. George Strait...who is he? Take a look at the pics from this dive and "LAKE TRAVIS DIVE' and FIRST GULF DIVE.

Diving in Texas
I am having fun diving in Texas but just not doing enough of it! Above are pictures from the gulf and Lake Travis, Take a look at the tabs for dive stories and pictures. Check out the first three tabs in the bar on the left hand side of this page.
2008 Galapagos whale shark
Since I learned how to put a video up on the site, I thought that I would put one of mine up. This is video that I shot in the Galapagos in 2008. I have a couple of other videos of sharks, turtles and an underwater car wreck, and you can find them by putting 'reducedbubble' in the seach bar.
WHAT NEXT FOR BLACK DOG?
Here are the things that I would like to do over the next two months:
- Add tabs with pictures from other Black Dog diver adventures.
- Set up four economic dive trips between now and the end of the year that include the Gulf (assuming that the oil stays in Louisiana), San Diego/La Jolla, Catalina/Annacapa and the Pacific Northwest.
- Set up profiles for Black Dog people and instructors.
- Get together for a summer party at the lake in the middle of that baking hot time in Phoenix.
I MISS YOU ALL!
Thank you for diving with Black Dog Divers and Sport Chalet, Tempe.
