sucker4scuba:You know, there is always something in a specific sport that is just the pitts... like diving.... washing your gear afterwards... anymore that you can add to the list???
Just getting to the dive site. Several hours from San Francisco for good diving. These days much prefer a nice 3-5 day boat trip. Having lived in La Jolla 3 houses in from a very nice beach, with a small reef, I got spoiled early. Come home from work and make a nice dive before dinner. No longer the case. Minor problem, I know, compared to those land locked divers who dive almost anywhere just to get wet between offshore trips.
