Wreck Maniac- I used to live in Atlantic and Neptune Beaches. Went through a hurricane there in the 1950's as a kid. My parents were down in the Keys and my grandmother was staying with us. All we could do is huddle in a corner of one of the rooms for the duration. I'm sure it was a minor one.

Again, be safe all you Floridian divers.

My company keeps a group of hotel rooms in Leesburg Virginia (about 40 miles west of DC..and about 30 minutes from Wreck Goddess and Vinnie I think).

If you need them..let me know...we will write you off as visiting clients or something

Ken, what an awesome invite. That just goes to show the caliber of members we have here. :welcome:

We tried and tried to get a dive in, but all the shops seemed wary of rough seas... I mean the waves are only projected to be 8 feet or so! Have fun in Morehead.
