Hello All,
Just starting to get the dive bug lately after being a vacation-only diver for the past several years. Certified rescue about 10 years ago but have only logged a couple hundred total dives (got real excited about traning and then petered out).
Haven't been in cold water in at least 5 years with my infrequent diving happening in the carribean and Hawaii.
I am looking forward to getting back into diving and this looks like a great source for diving buddies and info that was not available years ago.

Welcome to NWDC! I can assure you that if you post that you want to dive and when you are available the dive buddies will come!
What part of the Northwest are you located at? Letting people know in general where you live is the best way to find buddies that might be just down the street from you.

Some more info about me: married with two small kids, live in the Bellevue area. I plan to get some training with a dry suit and maybe pick one up. Being warm will make me happier and more likey to dive.

Re: Howdy All
Thanks for the great welcome everyone! I will absolutely come to Mukilteo and soak up some of the expertise of you guys. I will probably stay out of the water until I get a dry suit. Layers of neoprene are not my thing anymore.
Thanks again to all. This is a great community.
