Hi All!
I've been a "lurker" for a bit but finally decided to take the plunge.
I'm Richard (or "RBachman"). I'm recently relocated to Columbia South Carolina (my home town) following a period of endentured servitude (courtesy of the United States Air Force) and civilian work in Chicago (10 years in Barrington, IL.) and Norfolk, Virginia (4 years).
I've recently "re-entered" diving following a "brief" 4 year absence (doing the single Dad thing). Now that my son has decided to take the plunge (THANK GOD!....and thanks to Wateree Dive Center for getting that young man of mine certified) I'M BACK!!!
Most of my diving has been the Florida Caves and the Lake Michigan wrecks along with min-vis artifact collections in the SC rivers (thanks to Alan A. and Ralph W. for those days at USC). Although, courtesy of the previously mentioned endentured servitude I've also had the pleasure of visiting many other wonderful areas mostly in the far East and Pacific.
While most of my diving has been more "tech" oriented with the caves, I'm anxious to get back to more taditional diving.
Anyway, it's nice to be here and my compliments to the forum's owner and the moderator's/admin's for providing such a wonderful site!
