Hi,
All I am going to say is - why didn't someone mention scuba to me 10 years ago?!?!?
I started my OW course in March and hit the ocean in April. I still laugh when I recall how it felt like I had been punched in the face when we did our mask removal in 34F at 20 feet.
Since then I have been diving steady (generally a dive a week) and learning the ropes. In July I completed my AOW and even with the worst case of motion sickness I have ever seen (also makes me laugh when I remember how many times I threw up over the side) I managed to dive the Daniel Steinmen (sp?) and was blown away by seeing something that will only ever be seen by those with training (i.e. fellow divers).
My next goal is to get more comfortable with underwater navigation, learn buoyancy all over again with the new dry suit, and night dive all of the shore dives I have done so far.
So how many other bluenosers do we have on this board?
