Hello all!

I have moved back to the cold north after living in the islands where I got into diving, but nobody seems to share my interests here. :dltears:
I have recently returned to school for a career change, but will be finished in mid-june.
At this point I would very much like to take more advanced diving courses, but it would be so much more fun to do so with somebody else

Ciao,

Massagedude

Massagedude...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.

Hi Messagedude & :teeth:

!!! There's a few others from the great white north on our board that you'll be able to dive with easily. In fact, I believe they are putting together a little coldwater get together right now.... Someday, since you like the warm water, you'll have to come on one of WW's fabulous trips!!

Welcome, 'dude! I'm sure you can find many others here who share your passion for diving, even some from up in the Arctic where you are. OK, I'm from SoCal ... everything north of, say, Colorado, is the Arctic to me!

What would Patton do...?

Yeah I know: I've been branded a non-group person - doesn't play well with others. I am so upset. Let me know if you want to have some fun, without the drama - I'm good for that.
