i am really considering coming up there. bassman makes it sound like a great time! i have to see if i can finagle time off from work, though. i just took a whole week off recently so i'm not sure they're going to be very amenable. i'll see if i can figure something out, but if i come it might have to be a pretty short trip.

I'll pass on playing with the Sea Lions. But I still want to do a night dive! :supz:

Maybe I'll have to dive with a cattle prod or something.

Well, I'm not sure about you guys but I would have jumped on that one. Everyone complains about how much it costs to get to Alaska but here bassman is offering free airline tickets to come up and not a single person has responded. What is up with that??

i really, really want to go. bassman's offer is more than generous, but going up during the week makes it a lot tougher for those of us with "normal" jobs. ](*,) i'm still trying to figure out if i can somehow manage it ... :smt064

Oh man, I'd just love to go but I've used some time, have more time off coming up and just can't quite swing it. I'd surely love to come and do some bottle hunting...

sigh...

Sitka??

Who would want to dive somewhere with great vis, Warm water (relatively speaking), sea lions, and ton's of other critters?

Juneau is where it's at, colder darker water, and Heavy Metal! (i.e. Wrecks!)

Dave, The boys and I may look at hopping a ferry this winter and coming over to bug you for a couple days!

I love my job..

Post by Diver_Dave »

Never thought I would ever get paid for diving..Diving every day during the summer makes the season go real fast...Its not 9-5 more like 7-7 every day..The bummer thing is that im on salary so im stuck diving for sea life every day..Good things r I get to see all the different critters that come through the breakwater and get to dive on boats in the harbor in between sea life dives
