50+ year old divers

[PePaw]

So apropos that they "BURY" this section at the bottom of the list. I've been wandering the halls and didn't even know that this particular support group was meeting here !

PePaw...also known as Mike
Live in Middle Tennessee. Married to my dive buddy.
51 just this week.
I'll be back in the local quarry this week. But we prefer warm tropical locations.

Favorite dives so far are Santa Rosa Wall in Cozumel and a Manta cleaning station off of Maui. But Aruba is my favorite diving destination.

My oldest daughter who is a PADI instructor is moving to the Brac so i'm sure we'll get lots of diving there in the near future.

Life is good at this age.
Except that for some reason....I JUST CAN'T PEE !

I actually dived off the coast of South Viet Nam in 1970. At that point I was about 75% through my OW course, but I was more concerned with flying my UH1-H.

Wasn't much of a dive by today's standards, but it is a matter of comparisons.

It's not what we have done, it's what we want and will do.

As the Yellow Angle Fish always says, " It's never too late to have a happy childhood."

I am assuming it was out the Camron Bay (only place that I knew had tanks and compressors). We used to rent gear and take it back to Nha Trang... was some amazing diving.. the area got destroyed by polution after the war, but in 69, it was the equal to any place in the pacific..
