No avitar yet, sorry.
Just turned 50 and jumped out of an airplane to celebrate. Travel for me will be infrequent. But if y'all come to Hawaii . . . . .
I learned to dive in the Seattle area and dove for years there (I miss it, actually). The opportunity came up to relocate to Hawaii and so here I am. Believe it or not, though, winter conditions are sometimes prohibitive. Who knew?
So I'll keep checking in.

sea nmf. Glad to have you among us. We are growing by leaps and bounds and there are a GREAT number of people here that are just TERRIFIC. I have been a MOD and ADMIN and many boards, diving and fitness, yet I have never encountered the quality of people that have joined this one in this short amount of time.I am so excited and am looking forward to what SingleDivers.com brings to all of us.

Yeah I know: I've been branded a non-group person - doesn't play well with others. I am so upset.
Let me know if you want to have some fun, without the drama - I'm good for that.

Hi WOW!!! If you check the "Future SingleDivers.com Singles Trips" you'll see a number of people who want a Hawaii trip thanks to some awesome pictures by BluBlood! I think it would be great myself! So what part of Hawaii do you live in and have you been there long? Long enough to start jumping out of perfectly good airplanes I see!! LOL!!!
I am very glad you've joined us and please do feel free to give us suggestions not only for the board but also for the rest of the site! Most of us can't dive as much as we like...but we sure can take our 'surface interval' in between dives someplace fun! And I'm hoping SD.com is that great place people want to hang out at!
Welcome to the board...and as soon as you find a picture of yourself...you can send it to us and we'll size it for you if our system doesn't do it auto-magically!!!
Thanks for dropping in...hope you stay and of course...tell ALL your friends!!!

Hey Zendiver jumps out of them all the time...and I've ALWAYS wanted to do a jump myself. I've heard it said that "Sky"diving is the ultimate RUSH and "Scuba"diving is the ultimate relaxation! I'm all for finding out!!!
So other then Zendiver...notice a trend here on who IS and who ISN'T willing to a little risk???? LOL!!!!

I LOVE TO JUMP.....I LOVE THE RUSH.....I LOVE THE ADRENALINE! I take a lot of risks to get a rush but the ultimate is to jump out of a perfectly good airplane, but those that jump also know that those airplanes that take us up are ALL held together by bailing wire and duct tape.....so you see, they are NOT perfectly good airplanes. Besides, what happens when that PERFECTLY good airplane isn't so perfectly good anymore? HUH? <GRIN>

I'll content myself with strapping a bomb to my back and jumping off a perectly good boat, thank you very much.
I am crazy, but I'm not stupid. I can swim, I can't fly.
