Alllliiiiiiive!!

[Ishie]

Hi all!! I'm back from the dead, having finally given up my wicked ways of 60 hour work weeks with mandatry weekends to return to the reason I got a job in the first place! Diving!!

I'm heading out on the ME on Saturday (too lazy to swim), and waiting for a callback from my buddy for Sunday.

Who's diving this weekend??

Oh, and congrats ZKY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

welcome back Ishie, there's talk of a North Coast "get together" coming up Apr. 9th.

Welcome back, Ishie! Nice to see your smiling pixels again!

Ooooh, North Coast get together. These guys know what grubbing is!

Sucked to miss the Bodega one (I'm always a fan of entering the food chain), but had to work.

We are all meeting at Still Water Cove on Sunday April 9th around 9am. ZKY and I will be there earlier to hold a picnic spot for our BBQ. Everyone is welcome.

You are always invited, rain put a damper on Bodega but we had fun anyhow. Haven't set dates but june would be a good time to go back.
I heard you were in Monterey this weekend. Got to see Ernst a few times and Tribolet as he drove by this morning. I kept looking for the blonde without the hood. Glad to hear that you are still alive.

Hi!! Probably won't be able to make it out this weekend (work, growl).

Ah, if you were looking for the blonde without the hood, there'd be the problem. I finally found a hood that didn't press on my neck, and combined with the 49-52 degree temperatures and my interest in not moving on a dive (due to the photography), I was in a hood!

On Saturday, I was off the Express (Aumentos and Hopkins), and on Sunday, I did North Monastery and Butterfly House, both gorgeous, with Chris. Were you anywhere in the area?

It was a stunning weekend to be out diving. 20-30' of clear bright vis at all sites. Saw a Spanish Shawl at Aumentos! Never seen one this far north before.
