    Hello from Arizona

    Hello to all from a newbie in Arizona.

    Just did my 1st salt water dives in Cozumel. Posted a trip report in the travel section.

    Definitely hooked on my new hobby , but there was no question in my mind that I would be .

    Fishkiller - No comparison between lake and sea diving, but I would still dive the lakes. Let me know if you ever need a lake buddy before the water gets to cold. Yes, I read the Candy A***d Divers post, I there's no question that I qualify . I'll have to go to that post and add myself as a member.
    Definitely like a warm dive :tree:

    Welcome...

    Callie, nice to have you aboard! I am delighted that you enjoyed Cozumel: it is our favorite North American dive trip!

    I note, with pleasure, that you have already written and posted a report. Thank you! We love to read about others' dive trips. Keep it up.

    The rolls of the CAD group are growing daily. So, now I can write, We happy few, we band of (3) brothers (and 3 sisters)...

    Greetings

    From another who understands why ARIZONA is the all beach no ocean state :tree:



    Have tank will travel with the water temps on my half of the valley lingering in the 70's you might have to dive in less than ideal conditions with a suit

    we can always plan for spring CAD rules

    on a serious note

    I would feel honored to dive with a fellow Scubaboard member most anytime most anyplace

    Hey Kathy

    Diving in Thailand is excellent and can be done at very reasonable prices. I think the most you'd have to worry about is the airfare. (This is the same as my dilemma in getting over to the US to dive - some day.... some day...)

    Let me know if you're ever planning on a trip out here - glad to help and hopefully dive with you.
