Howdy from SB diver #89,xxx

:mooner: Howdy! Sorry about the mooner, couldn't find the nudi[branch] smilie to greet ya.

I think I've seen the ads for this site in one of the local dive magazines, then finally got on the boat when my buddy Tommy, TwistedGray, told me about his stinky situation with his open water class. Yey, the final push to add one more useful and time consuming forum to the daily visit list (tongue in cheek, but glad to be here, really). Thanks Tommy!

I'd like you to know that I live "near" some excellent diving opportunties and welcome a reciprocal invite to stay with a local and do some shore diving. I'm interested in taking day trips & weekend trips down to So-Cal (as well as Nor-Cal and Oregon, even Washington and British Columbia - for longer weekends) and would love having a place to stay with a dive buddy who can take me to some rocky reefs for shore diving. I'd be glad to reciprocate! Of course, no leghumpers or psychos.

I'm looking forward to enjoying this forum! Photos attached in case you ever catch me in Monterey or Carmel. BTW, I love the selection of smilies! :yelclap: We're just missing a motorcycle rider.

Disclaimer: "near" is defined as 70 mile drive from north of Monterey, but an easy, worthwhile drive.

Welcome to the 'board!!!!!
Next trip south just drop a note ScubaBoard - SoCal and I'm sure you'll find those willing to dive with you. Also check out our many planned outing and join in. I'm sure if you check out other local dive forums (including your own local), you will find many future dive buddies..... Dive safe and enjoy!

Thanks for all the welcomes. Some clever, witty responses and some helpful pointers! I have to say I love the "Paddles" "Splits" comic you have Buck! And I'm sure we can try for a dive together Disney guy, just send a PM. I'm getting Lasik tomorrow and so am beached for 2 weeks or so, but will be ready to get back in the water when the eyeballs are healed up enough to make diving kosher. :14:
