Howdy

Post by clackadiver »

Hi All, :hello2:
Name is Jeff and I started diving when in the Marines in the 80's then for some reason was out of the water til about a year ago.
Got the wife & kids into the sport too and now I have a family of divers, boy does my lds like me.....
Only have about a hundred dives since recertified but making up for lost time diving & training. Dive the Clackamas River, Hood canal, the sound and just about anything else deep & clean enough.

Thanks to the management for such a good forum.

Welcome Jeff! Nice to have another diver from the South in Oregon. You'll have to hook up with Sparky!

River diving, huh!?? Cool! Read about it, wondered about it... how about a report sometime?

Thanks for the warm welcome and dive offers, I look forward to taking you up on them.
There are quite a few fun dives to be had in the local lakes and rivers, like the Clackamas river at High Rocks in Gladstone Oregon. Fun for treasure hunting in the summer, too dangerour this tie of year though.
Will give a dive report on our next excursion.

Will be pm'ing you sparky, you're only a couple hours from us.
Should be easy to figure something out.

Welcome to our fruit and nut bowl Jeff.

Next time you do a dive in the Clackamas let me know. I have always wanted to do that but have not known anyone that has done it.

That's great!! I also got my wife and two kids diving too. Excellent family time, as I'm sure you'll agree!
