Hi all,
here I am in beautiful Colorado, living at a ski resort, surrounded by national parks and forests.
Sadly this just isn't enough anymore.
Scuba diving did this to me.
Now all I can think about is getting south, and getting wet!
Reef, fish, reef, fish, reef, fish, reef, fish, reef, fish, reef, fish, reef, fish...
Glad I found this here 12 step program(Scubaboard) for Scuba junkies, it's good to know I'm not alone...

Oh BTW, can anyone reommend a good sponsor?

I live in Conifer, CO, and I feel you pain.

I'm doing AOW shortly mainly just to dive (plus the training will be fun).

I think I will be spending more time at the Blue Hole than I otherwise would like just to get wet.

Where RU located?

Thanks for the warm welcomes and the tip on the "Bon"-voyage.
Bonaire sounds good, but I'm already headed to Utila this spring.

Thanks Murph,
good suggestion, I hope RonFrank knows of a respectable Tropical Plastic Fish Store on the front range somewhere. Preferably one that sells farm cultivated plastic fish, there's few enough Plastic Tropicals in the wild as it is, I'd hate to encourage poaching of the remaining species. hehe
I had thought of using real fish before, but this time of year at 9,000 ft most real fish are frozen for the winter. I'd have a serious OOA situ. in the tub by the time they thawed out. hehehe
BTW, I don't think I'm experienced enough to be solo diving at this point in my dive career. Guess I need to head over to the dive buddy link to find someone who's Tub Certified. Preferably female...

HI Norm,
I am so "there". Lived in Florida, California, Hawaii...but where am I living when I finally start diving???? Virginia!!! Too cold for me. Looking forward to moving someplace warmer. Hope all works out for you!!!
