Doder and I are going on Saturday. She has to work on Sunday but I'm pretty certain that there is nothing that will prevent me from making another dive on Sun. So if you still need a buddy I can make it.
I found a buddy free on Sunday..... so how do we get there?

Directions to Fort Wetherill
Thanks to Rax and the rest of the Connecticut Contingent
From the North
I-95 south thru providence to exit 9 (rt. 4)...this is a left exit
Continue on Rt 4 [there is only south] to Rt. 1 South [There is nothing to do here, it just becomes Rt 1]
Shortly after Rt 4 becomes Rt 1, you want to get on Rt. 138 east.
Rt. 138 east over 1st big bridge toward jamestown/newport
Continue to last exit before 2nd bridge (exit for Jamestown)
Follow that road straight thru town...marina on your left...
bear left at Ft. Wetherill sign (About 1 mile after exiting town)
turn right into Ft. Wetherill, and immediately turn left.
Follow 100yds or so to parking lot on right... there is a boat ramp in this parking lot.
find a spot
From the South
I95 North to Exit 3 in RI. (Rt. 138 exit)
Take Rt. 138 East.
A couple of miles past URI (Univ. of RI) you will have to turn left onto Rt. 1 (this is also still Rt.138 east)
Watch for, and take the Rt.138 east exit toward Newport and then follow above directions.

devil's advocate suggested another route to bypass 138...
take exit 5 and then 102 & rte 4 or something like that...look on a map...I think it was faster than 138 ......not as much traffic....
btw, I'll pass on Sunday...if I do get to dive, it'll be to do my 2 OW nitrox tanks locally
have fun

Will you be in RI on Sunday? Couldn't tell if this was a yes or no...

One would think you of all people would recognize a 'maybe' when you see one, eh shellbird?
Actually I'm still not sure. Won't be until Sunday morning. I'll have my gear ready to go, but it will all depend on the weather. If it's flyable, then I'm going flying. If it's not flyable, then I'm going diving. You guys were thinking of meeting when? 10-11am?
