Oh sure make us all jealous --- the opportunities you must have!

Where have you had the chance to get u/w?


In a past life I worked for the military, the only traveling I got was to bases in semi-remote locations in the dead of winter. You know one snowbank looks like the next one.... sigh

BTW, welcome.

:teeth: Skider! I see you have "Ice" certification! Man, you're either crazy or nuts! :P Either way, you'll fit right in here. I have a soft spot for little ones- you'll have to post a pic of your daughter so I can "ooohhh & aaawww" :D

Welcome,

I am across a lake or two from you. I hope to run into you somewhere.

Oh, all I ever "saw the world" through was the occassional peeks of the world that the captain saw fit to pipe down to the TV on the mess decks.

:lmao: skider...glad you stopped by and hope that you will call this home. There are a lot of knowledgeable people here that are ready and willing to help in anyway, all you have to is ask.

Don't forget to take a look at our website at SingleDivers.com. We are constantly upgrading and would love to see you on one of our upcoming trips.

Again, welcome to our little place on the net where having fun is what it is all about.
