Finally back in the water...

Post by Alexitt »

Almost 5 weeks after my eye surgery I was cleared to get back in the water... So several of us went out to Keystone for a couple of dives yesterday, vis was pretty good but cold and windy... The best part was that I finally got to use Dusty's light that I scored at the club dive earlier this month... Sweeeeeettt... I was impressed and so were my companions, I just want to say Thanks Dusty for a fine piece of workmanship that someone on my budget could afford... Just one more reason I'm happy to be a part of NWDC...

Alex: I wondered why I hadn't been seeing you around. I'm glad you're back in the water and had no problems. Let's get together and you can light the way.

Schweet!

You're going to have to come South some Thursday and slum it with the cool kids from the southland!

I know all too well what it's like to be dry for an extended period of time. Glad to hear that you got back into the water!

Just got to find a spot on the calendar where he doesn't have to be heading for work at 5 am the next day... He did come down and join us at the Tides on New Years Day :) I'm thinking a weekend shore dive from the city boat launch in Gig Harbor sounds like fun. Do a bottle dive before boating season kicks off.
