I got my flight through United using my miles.  I'm getting in on the Wednesday 8/3 and coming back to the bay area on 8/7.  Right now I have a room for 8/3 but I do have a friend that lives there so I may just stay with him that night.

Sounds like a blast!!

Scott does that mean you are blowing off one of the days of diving? The boat only runs Aug 5, 6, & 7. Also where does your friend live?

Oops sorry about that .. my return flight is on 8/8... My friend lives in Raleigh.

Whew!!! Glad it was a typo! So we'll pick you up in Raleigh or have your friend drop you off where we'll have lunch before hitting the road which is in Cary! -ww

WW,

Count me in, all three days and nitrox.

This one looks like a car trip for me.

OK, from even before I joined this board NC wreck diving has been on my to-dive list!!! Who-hoo then I stumble on here! This looks like a trip I can schedule this year! I have some good friends in Raleigh too so I might book end the trip with a visit! Will knock out the details and secure my spot! So wetsuit or drysuit for the dives?

[Dive_Girl]

Oh, and I could possibly do Nitrox certs if that would help unless you want everyone Nitrox certified in advance or there wouldn't be enough time...

You'll want a wetsuit...unless you are a wuss like me!!

[Dive_Girl]

I look som much stealthy in my drysuit and it isn't as stinky....whoops there goes the whole mysterious Oregon dive girl factor!

Then we'll dive dry together...but realize YOU'LL be HOT...I live in Texas and so I am immune to heat!

Wow, that is too many questions in a row, now I have to think.

Ok, how about paypal plus three in cyberspace, or "the e-transaction is in cyberspace"

I am trying to recruit one of the buds.

Is an al 80 with air included in the trip? and if nitrox then we bring our own or rent the tanks and fills?

I will be in a wetsuit but hope I can still dive with you and Dive Girl!

Looking forward

WW, Wuss huh?

Are you the same WW I dove with in the high 60s water of the St. Lawrence River?

Seems you wet, and, OH I forgot shivering, but the "cold water response" was great.

Tough life...but I think you can handle it!

Ok, how about paypal plus three in cyberspace, or "the e-transaction is in cyberspace"

Thank you...it is the deposit amount plus 3% which is what they charge me. (Actually more but I absorb the transaction fee...those pesky varmits!)

I am trying to recruit one of the buds.

Awesome!!! And thank you!

Is an al 80 with air included in the trip? and if nitrox then we bring our own or rent the tanks and fills?

Yes alum 80 air is included. If you want to bring your own tanks and do fills you can and I'll credit the price of al air 80 to your nitrox or air fills etc. You can also rent nitrox tanks if you like as well which come with fills as part of the rental price.

I will be in a wetsuit  but hope I can still dive with you and Dive Girl!

Of course you can silly...the water will be very warm....80-85 usual bottom temps!

Looking forward

Mike

So am I...it will be good to see you again! -ww

Mike

Yes that was me and that was the last time I've dove wet in anything that resembles cold water! You would have to remind me of how cold that was wouldn't ya??? Makes me shiver just thinking about it...oh yes...and a similar cold water response!!

[Dive_Girl]

Of course you can silly...the water will be very warm....80-85 usual bottom temps!

Whoa, the water is that warm!? Guess I'll be wetsuiting it, because inthat heat the drysuit would be way too stinky and uncomfortable! I keep forgetting the Eastern board gets warm water that comes up from South. We get the opposite over here...water cruising down from the North.....POLE!
