A traveler in Virginia for now

[mare nubium]

Hello All,
I have been Diving since the early 70's thanks to the Air Force, but now that my children have grown left the house returned and left the house .... well you know the drill, I can once again spend time & money diving, I have been diving through out the Caribbean working my way from Island to Island. Some times one step ahead of or behind a hurricane which really messes up the visibility, gotta stop going in Aug & Sept. I was researching for a new mask when I came across this forum. Right now I live in Northern Virginia the company I work for transfers me more than the military did. unfortunately my wife does not dive so I have to take pot luck on boat trips or meet up with different divers at the LDS. I'm currently working on getting 2 more of my specialties out of the way so I can start taking the Next step by becoming an instructor. Have a good day & see you on the bottom

Welcome to the board!

Here are some tips to make your time at Scubaboard a fantastic experience:

1. Fill out your profile. This lets us get to know you! Who knows, maybe there are others out there who share your love of underwater basket weaving!

2. Check out the forum on Scubaboard that is specific to your geographical location.

3. Don't hesitate to ask any dive-related questions you may have. There WILL be someone here who knows the answer. There also may be people who are sarcastic or attempt to make you feel silly for asking questions. Keep in mind that Scubaboard is like a salad bar. Take what you like and leave the rest!

4. When available, really get involved IN PERSON. Several of us regularly attend local functions where we dive and dine together. It really does enhance your Scubaboard experience!

Welcome!

Also, if you're still looking for a mask you should check out NOVA Dive Center in Sterling, VA. It's the LDS I use and they are outstanding! I've found Mike and Jeff (the owners) to be the most helpful.
