I will be at the happy hour for sure, but I don't think I will make the dives. I'm trying to keep funds set aside for my Keys Krawl in May! Have any firm plans been made for the happy hour yet? Time? Location?

I have my fingers crossed that the ocean gods are kind enough to cooperate on May 1 & May 2!! Either way, the party is still on the evening of May 2.....

I hope the weather cooperates for you too. I may try and dive; I'm just not going to commit to the diving part quite yet. But as for the party.....I am IN!!! Please post the specifics for the HH once they are in place and I will certaily see you there. I'm looking forward to meeting you.

Dear DG/LLDN,

Holly and I are booked for both the AM and PM dives on 02 May. We are diving Nitrox in the PM to help counter exhaustion, :lmao:

fools that we are! :thankyou:

Yes, we plan to make the HH after. C'mon guys, how often do you get to dive FTL?

Just sayin'... :thankyou:

hey y'all I keep seeing this is only for FL peeps but what say you if a Yank stops into town and joins ya? Me thinks that I'd be welcome by this nutty group but wanted to stop in and check.

Someone asked about artificial wrecks off Ft Lauderdale. There's a LOT. I dove all winter off Pompano Beach (with South FL diving Headquarters and with ScubaTyme, both Pompano Beach operators) and every trip was wreck/reef. Lots of good ones.

I'm thinking about stopping in for the 2 May and staying the whole weekend. When I fly down to FL, I dive the heck out of the weekend (8-10 if possible) then head home Tuesday (at least 24 hours to off-gas) so if anyone is around, I'm down and looking to go further down (in the water you sick puppies).

Thanks DB, LLDN and pM and some others said if you say it's ok, I'm allowed to join!!

The whole reason this thread got started is because 3 Kansas City ladies are going to Florida to dive, and we wanted our SD friends to hook up with us. OF COURSE you can join up!

Scuba Goddess, there are no confirmed plans on the HH, we're sorta winging it. Can you PM me a cell phone number and we can hook up with you when we DO decide where we're going to be?

Book on the American Dream II for the Saturday 5/2 dives (Scubaski put a direct link to their site on an earlier post in this thread, and let them know you're with the SingleDivers group). We'll have to get the locals to suggest where to party afterwards, and then clue Scuba Godess in since she can't dive but does want to meet up for the party.
