Just got back, rinsed the gear and ready to crash out.... but I wanted to be the first to say thanks to all I just met for a brief conversation to those I had the joy of diving with.... Had a blast!!!! Jim, Dan, Nick, Nicole, Steve.... thanks for diving with me.... I look forward to diving with any of you ...... Good nite.

Agreed, it was very nice to meet everybody yesterday, just had a great time, and after lugging all my gear and a HP100 to the park and back not a shabby workout!
Looking forward to more diving in the future!
 
Agreed nice to see everyone. Dave, Dan, Nicole, Stephen: a pleasure as always even if I am forever known as "bubble boy" lol. Jim, pleasure to meet you!

That was one of the best diving days I've ever had. Knew it was gonna be great when the ocean was FLAT, I mean lake flat, the whole ride over. The fishies were out in force. I have never in my short diving career seen so many schools of fish at once. And large ones too! I coulda just floated there forever watching the schools swirl around me.

Another great Wrinkles event!
 
Beautiful day, wonderful conditions and great people.
What else could you ask for?

Had a fantasic time.

Jim, hopefully that hp100 was a little easier to lug on the way back. ;)

Seriously great day of diving yesterday! I couldn't believe the visibility....I thought that kind of visibility was reserved for tropical diving only :rofl3:

Got four great dives in (now I know why everyone said Casino Point is worth going to!)....thanks to all the great company above and below the surface! Great day, and can't wait until the next time we get together (and show off our long hoses....hehe).
 
I really had a great time diving Saturday. The water was clear, weather perfect, fish and animal life plentiful.

I met so many new friends and a few old ones. All in all, a perfect day.

Bubble boy???? Care to explain to me Nick?


Nice photos Like the C-O turbot Photo :) They always Run from my Camera
 
To the rest of the Wrinkles (or was it wrinkled?) gang. Thanks to assistance from Aeolus, we on the island are holding several of your group hostage. They include Headhunter, HBDiveGirl and Mo2vation among others. You will never see these folks again if you do not send a ransom of 50 cents to Dr. Bill. Good thing some of you escaped the island while you could!

Bill, I we all send you a few bucks, will you please, for the love of all things scuba, BUY A NEW WETSUIT!:D

I agree to chip in few bucks too.... I thought it was the bad economy that was hurting the business at Avalon, but found out it was Dr.Bill's wet suit that was scaring away the tourist....:rofl3:
