Wrinkles January '07 Dive Planning Thread - La Jolla

[headhunter]

I'll update the first 2 posts as a running synopsis of this thread.

When: Saturday, January 13th
Where: La Jolla Shores, San Diego County


What is the Wrinkles Dive?

This is a monthly gathering of all divers and non-divers in SoCal who can make it. It's a lot of fun involving diving, eating, socializing and sometimes even camping!

It all started when our SoCal member, Wrinkles, mentioned to a group that she dove with that it would be really fun to be able to get together at least once a month. Pasley, took off with the idea and announced the first "Wrinkles Dive". The rest is history!

It's open to everyone of all skill levels from "I'm not certified yet" to "Do we really have to dive the Andrea Doria again?"

We've found this to be a great way to meet our fellow divers locally and many new dive buddies have been found though these "dive soirees".

The San Diego Daily Transcript says:

The extensive menu seemingly offers something for everyone... Prices are inexpensive to moderate."

Errr... turns out I'm the only one left in the world who knows what percolating is and I suck at it.
