Hey everyone-

Sounds like we'll have a solid turn out this evening.

However, I did just find out that the tables are not at the new location yet, so if you're attending, please bring a pen/pencil, paper and a calculator as well as a notepad or something to write on since the tables won't be there.

See you at 6!

So this is going to be at the new NWSD? I think I have a few folding chairs I can bring.

Thanks for putting on the class last night. I now finally "get it" and I figured out what I was missing.

This is my third kick at the cat, first was reading - self study, second time was in the SDI Solo Diver class, and third was last night!

I have already starting seliing your next class to some dive buddies.

Awesome.

Paul, I'm glad you were able to put the pieces together.

I forgot how many people were there, but it was a pretty good turnout. What was really cool is there were a few new faces. I'm really happy to see such an interest.

I'll put something together for the month of April shortly.

If I lived up there weeknights would also be for diving! But, I get what you're saying.

Thanks, Matt.

I'm looking at some dates in April to head down there if there's interest.

Just an update, Portlanders... I'm working on some dates to come down and give the Gas Planning Boot Camp. I'll also have a date for another Puget Sound presentation soon as well.
