Thanks for your offer Li'l 38. Not only am I new to diving,this is my first board. I probally know more about diving than I do this sort of thing! Could'nt find how to fill-out the profile but will be glad to do so when I do. Seems like a lot of great people here,and I know I can benifit from all this experience.I have my open water card (NAUI)and have made 12 dives for a total of 11hrs and 38mins. I as well as my buddy are now nitrox certified and have been breathing the devil gas for 2 dives @ the alabama keys aka the quarry in pellam ala. That has taken us to 80 ft. We have completed the advanced diver classroom (where I met my buddy) and anxiously wait for the check-out. In the mean time we are going back to the quarry as cold as it is (57 degrees @ 80ft) to work some more on planning;navagation and breathing . 1st weekend in nov. we'll be going to palm beach with a group out of savanna ga. By the way I'm in douglasville ga about 30 min west of atl. hope I have'nt rambled on to much thanks for the help.
