Bill22, hey thanks for the post, I hope you have been back diving with me since that 'sleeping in the car' night. If you haven't dove the Spiegel Grove you go to come back, she is a beautiful dive, also my cudas, eels and sharks want to say hello on our Friday/Sunday AM critter feeds. Hope to see ya underwater soon..Capt. Slate
Greetings from hot & humid FLA. All is well here, just working away. I'm hoping to hear back from a friend to confirm my nitrox cert & wreck insertion. How's life out in the Pacific?
