Hi Folks,
My wife and I, avid cold-water divers here in Vancouver, BC, finally got down to Catalina for five days of diving last week. Diving in California had been on the list for a long time! Twenty-five years long! Anyway, our first night on the island we wandered down to the dive park and found a golf cart parked there with a Dr. Bill sticker on it - that, and the light in the water made us want to hang around for a chance to meet Dr. Bill. Once he got out of the water, and still in his wetsuit, we had a chance to get a great site orientation - got to ask a few more questions (I had emailed him earlier) and had a nice chat about diving and Catalina in general. Dr. Bill was as friendly and as helpful as he is in these pages - he's a great ambassador to the sport and a really nice guy.
We enjoyed the diving so much, that Catalina is on the list again for next year!
Thanks Dr. Bill!
