Wow. This year has flown by, and I have discovered one thing above all:

It sucks being dry.

I sure hope the coming year is better than this one, and I sincerely hope everyone has had a much more dive-active year than I did this year. :cheerleader: I honestly don't know where this year went; it seems like it was early May just yesterday. I can't even remember the last time I checked in here on SD.

Well, anyway, I hope everyone had a great Christmas (complete with lots of Scuba goodies), and I'll go ahead and wish everyone a Happy New Year. :cheerleader:

Cheers!

Great to see you back here Jim!

I agree, staying dry is not the way to go. May everyone get a little diving in for the New Year! Happy holidays everyone!

Actually, I think that staying dry is the only way to go. :cheerleader:

Ah, yes. Radio, astronomy, mountain biking...everything but diving! At least I haven't gotten fat and lazy. :birthday: Just too bloomin' busy, that's all. Our new Birmingham guy keeps trying to get me down to Morrison Spring, and I still haven't made it down to St. Andrews in Panama City to try the jetty dive yet. Bummer.

Hey, maybe we could do a FL DOM in Panama City...! (Oops, I hope nobody heard that...they'll want me to organize it!) :birthday:

Thanks to all who welcomed me back! Believe me, I've missed all of ya'll too! Gotta go do some more work now.

Cheers!
