    Rolling my eyes Howdy Y'all... newby on the loose

    Howdy Folks

    I have finally decided to take up scuba diving. I have done the resort dives in Maui a couple of times but decades ago. As my partner and I travel down to Playa De Carmen, Mexico every year I thought it is time to learn to dive. I signed up for ow certification class next month in Austin, Texas. I'm really excited about this and know it will open up a whole new world for me. I hope starting a new hobby at 48 won't be a disadvantage.

    that's all for now

    Mike

    You can test the tanks you breathe or - dive on hope.
    Testing is safer...


    Great news for vacation divers who cannot talk themselves into buying a personal CO tank tester!

    >> Rent one for a week or longer here <<

    Yeah it's just the air we breath - at depth!

    In a study, scientists report that drinking beer can be good for the liver. I'm sorry, did I say "scientists"?
    I meant "Irish people."
