Thanks for the great welcome all! l almost feel..l dunno...special l work out of TLSea (tlsea.com) dive shop in Des Moines (not the one in lowa). Just dove the Channel lslands off Santa Barbara...great 3 day live aboard trip and Truth Aquatics did an awesome job of chartering the excursion. l found out about you guys while reading the newest issue of Alert Diver magazine...one of the guys got bent while in Cozumel. l've been there twice, BTW, what a super place! Anyway, thanx again!

Hi Kevin! Welcome to the board!!

Tell us more about your Channel Islands trip. I'm assuming that since you did a multi-day that you made it to the outer islands? Good times!! Kamala's putting together a SoCal trip and I'm sure she'd appreciate your input on what you liked and what you would do differently when you were here.

Looking forward to getting to know you.

welcome kevin...we're all special here...jsut in dfifrenet wyas... did you know that as long as the first and last letters are the same we can read a word normally even if the middle stuff is all scrambled up?

did you know that as long as the first and last letters are the same we can read a word normally even if the middle stuff is all scrambled up.

True, but it only works when the first and last letters are the same. Starts with a B, ends with a B. I've tested it with Bob and Boob. No matter how I scramble those other letters, I can still read it.

[mischievous]

do we have any "bob"s on board?

yea! thanks for the pic kevin...i like knowing what people look like. so much better than just a name.

The Channel lslands trips can be seen at Truth Aquatics.com. They were perfect...pool opened at daylight and they fed us 3 great meals a day, plus snacks! They are a first class orginazation and l'm pretty sure we'll be going back again next New Year!

Welcome, Kevin. I was certified and did most of my diving in the Seattle area.

There is a thread here about your favorite dive sites. Check out what I wrote. You can second it if you've been up there, I'm sure!

I'm not familiar with the dive shop you mention. Do you certifiy new divers at Three Tree?

You'd be VERY welcome!! We are going to be telling everyone we can about SingleDivers.com so the more the merrier...oh and did I mention we'll be REALLY celebrating some b-days while we are there????

As for Truth Aquatics I've heard good things about them. Too bad you are diving there for NYE....but maybe you'll join us again when we do our SoCal trip as Jextract calls it!!

[zendiver]

Yes mischievous, we do have a BOB on board.

Welcome Kevin Glad you could stop by. We've had a couple of divers from our area (Dallas) move up there lately. I don't hear from them much, so, the diving must be good. Join in the conversations and join us on a trip or two.

Hi Kevin. Welcome. It looks like the Pacific Northwest has reached critical mass. Pick a great dive site/ weekend/ trip and get the info to Kamala. We will descend on your location.
