Went into the Air Force in 81 and found a 5 start PADI store in Shreveport, LA. Got certified and went as far as Rescue training but was sent overseas and never got the actual cert. Currently sitting at PADI Advanced and a fresh FA/CPR/O2 cert.
I've been diving around here since I got out in 85. Mostly the EUW Park, Edmonds Oil Dock (RIP, I loved that dive) and Alki. I hooked up with one of my wife's hubbbies' who lives in Bremerton. He's taken me out to the Warren Ave Bridge a few times. I'm am looking to get up to Canada for some of those wrecks soon. I just got back from doing the Titan Missile Silo dive in Eastern Washington. Video that talked me into it: http://vimeo.com/19172657 Others loved it. I got tooled. Very glad I did it and would recommend it to experienced divers. But I'm not going back in there.
My family runs a yearly trip somewhere every year. My only input is that diving has to be an option. Past few trips have been Mazatlan, a bust for diving. Costa Rica, The Big Scare, bust but otherwise good diving. Playa Del Carmen
I am ruined for other diving after the Cenotes. Fresh water limestone cave/caverns. There aren't words for what its' like. The Pit, Dos Ojos, The Pet Cemetery, Chac Mool and others. Heliotherms, chemical clouds at 150 ft, tiny blind shrimp, its amazing. My current schedule has me off on Sun/Mon and off and back in Lynnwood by 330pm other days. I'm only a couple minutes from the EUWP and willing to travel some to get to a good dive.

with water and drink it, not snort the powder directly from the packet, right?
