:cool2: Welcome, Dr. Bill! ;)

Glad you are back in SoCal and that you came on to this site as well, we have fun here! Ana and I are talking about her getting me back into the chilly water (sorry Lynne, it IS cold to me!) soon, so we might be looking you up!

Ciao!

Jennifer

You need a drysuit, Jennifer, and then you'll be all set for cold water!!

FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION!! It comes bundled with the software.

What do you mean "it doesn't come in PINK"?!?!

Good idea, LD! She'd do well with a dry suit.

Until you get used to the dry suit, you shouldn't be taking photos. Once you have it down, take your camera again. We'd hate for you to make many dives without your camera, you're too talented.

DL,

When I retire, I'm moving south. The winters here are much too cold.

I'm with you, Walter! Welcome to the board, Doc! :cool2:

Welcome Bill! South is good, warm water even better. Although, I'm not sure how much further south Walter thinks he can get.

I'm over 26° north of the equator, I can go a long way south yet.

Jennifer and Ana- Haven't been too impressed with the vis out here lately although it seems to improve on the days I don't dive. Hmmm. Water temps not bad for this time of year (62 at surface). Let me know if you head out this way and I'll neet you at the Park. Lots of Belize and Utila footage to show once I finish editing it all.

Dr. Bill
Must have a sense of humor to view my web site!

Impossible.

The panhandle of Texas doesn't exist. There's a wide foot in the south; a square block in the north; and a curvey, but very wide ear in the west. None of these is long and narrow and therefore not a panhandle.

Oklahoma has the classic panhandle. Florida has a very nice pandhandle. West Virginia has two, although the northern one is perhaps too small to reallt be considered a panhandle. Idaho has well developed panhandle. I see no part of Texas that could remotely be considered a panhandle.

With that in mind, to what part of Texas do you refer?

Hi Walter, according to your map, I guess I live in the square block in the North, right on the old Route 66. Amarillo is about 90 miles from New Mexico and 95-100 miles from Oklahoma. Both lakes near us are over 50 miles away, but at least they don't have alligators. LOL! :blush:
