Another new kid on the block -- new to SingleDivers but not new to some of the fine faces here. Looks like a great site! I'm excited to be one of the original joiners, since no doubt this site is going to attract a slew of singles soon. Way to go, Walter, zendiver, WreckWench, and everyone else who has been working hard to put this together. Y'all rock.

I was wondering what you looked like. Don told me that you said, you guys rocked the night away at Joseoph's in Santa Rosa last weekend. Sorry we couldn't make it that time. I will be there next weekend anyway. I have been several times and I have never seen anyone want to party there. I really hate I missed that one.
Where in Colorado are you anyway?

Welcome to the party...
I'm trying to get a Turn Blue dive-in organized for late April in the North American forum here. Hope you can make it....

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.

Yeah, Santa Rosa on a Saturday night CAN actually be fun! I couldn't believe it. I've gone down there many times in three years, and that's the first time the bar was open to the public rather than hosting a private party. So we made the most of it. Due to our repeated requests for some real dance music the bartender finally called in a DJ, who commenced to rock the house. What happened then belongs in a David Lynch movie!
And so those not familiar with this sought-after diving destination can participate, here's some info on the Blue Hole and additional pics.
We'll be going down again in April and attempting to top this trip's prize for Most Groovilicious Freakshow.

Sorry I wasn't here to welcome you right away. I was busy creating a mystery so rumors could get out of control.
Why don't you tell these fine folks a little about yourself, in English please?

Something about myself... y en ingles? OK, well, I live in Colorado because I love the mtns and outdoors, though originally from NC. Didn't discover my scuba passion until moving here unfortunately. In NC, when I was only a 3-hour drive from the coast, I always headed west for the great mtn biking (only a 3-hour drive to the mtns), but after moving here I got a bug for all locations south of the border and discovered diving while in the Bay Islands, Honduras. Now I'm a landlocked addict.
To keep from forgetting everything and for the sheer love of diving, I started working on my rescue and DM certs, spending many a fine evening watching the chlorinated wildlife swirling at the bottom of a 12' swimming pool (mostly hairballs and bandaids). Believe it or not, even that is enjoyable.
Just last month I did my first REAL diving in almost 4 years, taking a fabuloso trip to Cozumel. It was also challenging and tested my ability to keep my cool in the water. Though, actually, that was my second such test. First time was also with a dive buddy who ignored me and swam off on a deep dive. These experiences have made me realize you can't make friends into good dive buddies. So I'm now working the opposite angle. IOW, looking forward to meeting other serious dive addicts on some upcoming singles trips.
Sooo...who's doing one of the NC trips this summer?

Thanks for the compliments, but this board wouldn't be what it is today without members like you and the rest of the group. Ya'll ROCK!

Will do. Too bad you can't make the April trip, but I'm sure we'll have a trip coincide soon. My next one is probably August.hey C ...welcome aboard. I live in Albuquerque and dive the hole often. Last weekend in april probably (might) wont work for me but keep it posted when you and your group head down and I'm sure we will see each other out there sometime.
Not really. Just some murky lakes that aren't nearly as good for doing certification work. My instructor sometimes takes people to Chatfield in Denver, but I've never done any diving there or anywhere else in Colorado for that matter. Do you come up this way on business or for the skiing? Not that we have any snow to speak of anymore...I'm in Colorado a few days a month...Is there no place to dive there?
