OK, I am 70 and dive allmost every weekend in the summer in the quarrys in PA and Ohio. Also the Florida gulf in the winter when it is not too cold or too rough (and anywhere else I happen to be). I have been diving for 4 years, ever since my son got me into it, and I fell in love with the sport. I don't do deep dives or hard dives; prefer to dive between 20 and 50 feet and just mosey around underwater looking at whatever is there. I do get a physical every year, take no medicne (except a vitiman pill) and seem to be in good health. I have been active all my life and I hope I am able to stay that way.

50 plus and just getting back into diving in the North Florida area with at least 1 trip per year to the Keys. The gear doesn't get any lighter but the diving makes it all worthwhile.

Okay, it's official. I get to join this club today.
For a wee bit of background, I was certified in 1974, up in Massachusetts. Early dive gear included a tank with plastic backplate and single camband, with J valve. No spg on the reg, just pull the wire when you run out of air. Also no Octo, we didn't need no stinkin' octo's! And, never heard of a BCD, we simply used horse collars with choice of oral inflation, or a CO2 cartridge to deploy in case of emergency.
Boy, does this ever make me sound old! :shocked2:
