Hello Divers!!!

Let's all have a going away party for our local legend Grateful Diver (aka BOB)!

He's moving away to warmer waters and we are going to miss him so much! :notworthy:

LOCATION: KEYSTONE
WHEN: SUNDAY NOVEMBER 25, 2018
Plan is to get on the 9 AM Mukilteo to Clinton Ferry & stop by the Pie farm (Green Bank Farms pie shop) on the way to Keystone.

Plan is for 2 dives, but 1st dive will be off slack so if you're not too comfortable with current best to do 1 dive a little later in the afternoon (Slack is at 1:30). We can find people buddies as needed. :)

Bob has helped me out and taught me so much in my diving career & I cannot imagine Redondo without Bob, out and about looking for lumpies! I hope you guys can come make it out and show Bob how awesome he is!!! :joshsmith: :partyman: :taco: :luv: :eric:

I was already planning on being out there for two leisurely afternoon dives (the one benefit of living in the north end) so I guess I can stop by and no longer remain anonymous! Since you guys are getting there early I’ll be the guy parked and gearing up in the nosebleed section by the bathrooms.

I’ll be out there around 11:45. I drive a maroon F-150 and my buddy and I talk a lot of smack to each other. Somedays we even kinda look like we know what we are doing!

So excited to meet you Ross!
We are in a silver Honda Pilot.
It's looking a bit windy so everyone remember that you need to keep regs in mouth on way in/out :)
Happy & safe diving!

Thank you Jess for organizing this, and to all of those of you who came out. It was a great time. I'm sure I will miss the many friends I've made here … y'all will just have to come down to Loreto sometime for a visit. There's some pretty good diving down there too …

… Bob (Grateful Diver)(

It was good to finally meet a few of you guys out there. That was some fun diving! Hopefully everyone got to see and photograph the pretty orange juvenile wolf eels. Next time hopefully I will have more time to socialize. Have fun in Mexico Bob!
