    Retirement rocks

    I gave up my main job in '01, at 50. But never had to look for something to do. Always had at least 3 things going at a time. So still had 2. Am just as busy as my energy allows. Recently got on the paleo diet, also called caveman diet. Energy is up, and have dropped about 15 pounds. In 4...

    Is it too early to start talking about MAY 2010??

    I'm staying at the Villablanca Apr 29 to May 6, diving with Dive w/ Martin, and plan to do some shore dives in the afternoons if I can find someone to dive with. Maybe they have a bulletin board, if so will put up a note.

    Night Diver Operators in Mayan / Cozumel

    When I have booked Riviera Maya, we were south of PDC, once right in the town of Puerto Aventuras, The Catalonia. Short walk to the harbor area, where you can go fishing, or go to the dolphin, seal, manatee shows, and the dive shop called Dive Aventuras. Great dive shop. Divemasters all speak...

    Aow

    When I did my AOW, I got the book and read it and answered all the questions before going to take the course. That way I didn't have to study all evening, and got the course done over a weekend. Wish I had picked the peak performance bouyancy, as I had to do that later. Did search and...

    Opening another guest house/hostel in Cozumel

    Orm, wouldn't get in a hurry if I were you, according to my financial newsletter this thing is far from over. In spite of what the news media is putting out. It was pointed out that when a financial meltdown like we have witnessed happens, it takes typically 6 to 7 years for it to get worked...

    Wife cancelled out

    Don, I went to sidestep.com, put in the Thursday Apr 29, and May 6 for return, just assume Thursdays are least expensive air fare, and went through the thing, but somewhere it gives me 2 people to a room, couldn't figure out how to change it to just one. Flying from Wichita, Continental has best...

    Wife cancelled out

    Are there any groups going to Coz who could use one more? My wife just informed me she just is too busy to go on a trip this April or May. Prefer late april, have to get the cows out to grass before I can leave. Anyway, I am a 58 year old male, AOW, about 100 dives, glad to share a room...

    Problems of the single diver....

    I've had the same problem before. As long as the wife wants to go along, we just book an AI resort, and I dive and she calls herself a "dive widow", but lately it's been hard to convince her to go. The group we used to go with bought Harleys and started doing weekend road trips, but I was the...

    Keys water temp May

    I signed up for a liveaboard trip doing the keys starting at Key West. Middle of May. Wondering if I need to buy a heavier wet suit. Mine is a 3 mill, and have a skin as well, but no heavy wet suit. What can I expect for water temps?

    Questions about Roatan diving and resorts

    Forgot one important question, I'm 57, do I need to get a form and have the doctor stamp it? Have heard some places require this of over 50 divers. My health is good, no heart trouble, no prescriptions.
