:cool2: I seem to be sprouting gills :lmao:

I've decided I love living on the OTHER side of the mountains... you know, where the WATER is. So far I've been underwater for the past three days straight, and at least ten trips to water in the last 2 weeks.

My wetsuit is getting that signature F-U-N-K-Y smell that comes with overuse... A big Lingcod tried to woo me today after catching a whiff as I swam by. Geez! Some folks might consider that a problem, huh? I've spent so much time at one Tacoma dive site that I can now navigate using only the Miller, Budweiser, and Pepsi cans along the way ( I do plan on bringing a goodie bag along soon to clean these three landmarks up, so I'll be forced to use a compass again, but hey... for now it's really blowing my mind that I see these three landmarks on every dive without really trying. )

Some folks have been wondering where I've been lately... now you know. I start my new job tomorrow, so the diving might slow down a wee bit compared to the last few days, but I definately know how I'll be spending my weekends in the future.

I'll be moving into the new place on the 3rd. After that I should be able to connect on a more regular basis, and with my own computer for a change, so expect to see some of the awesome pictures I've been loading up my hard drive with soon.

Hope you all ( and even Y'all ) have been generating some good stories and funky smelling gear of your own. Life's too short to spend too much time offgassing.

Erin :-D

Well, that's FAR more boring than some of the great hypotheses we've been cooking up in your absence.

Nice to have you back, nonetheless. I guess I can take the file out of the Twinkie I was going to send you.

Welcome back Erin!!

Hey, as much as we both enjoy building our own stuff, GILLS probably are NOT the best DIY project.......

Dare I even ask????

Oh it was... I don't argue with anything over four feet long. I had to end the date early when I reached 500 psi. :dltears:

he probably attracted a few crabs

Sorry TF, I'm not even gonna touch that one! :welcome:
