New
I had an account on here last year, I think by the name DivingGuitarist, but I forgot the info for it so started a new one. The email I used I don't use anymore so I had to start a new one.
So, let me introduce myself...
I'm James from Rhinebeck, NY. Maybe you've heard of it lately, it's been in the news because Chelsea Clinton is rumored to be getting married here. Anyway, it's a quaint town on the Hudson River. I have a passion for photography, freight trains, French language, cooking, eating, adventure, and such. I've always loved snorkeling in Lake Champlain, as we have a family owned cottage right on the shore in Port Douglass. So since my early days, I've been snorkeling, checking out the fish, seaweed, and Zebra Muscles (every single rock in Lake Champlain is COVERED in them- the lake was practically invaded!). I am a very good swimmer and love the water, I grew up coming twice summerly- we've got a Conroy recreation boat and have had loads of experiences on the lake. My uncles are both certified with PADI, not sure what level, but one uncle gave me his old PADI Diver Manual from when he was learning and getting certified in the late 70's/80's. I've been reading it alot lately and all my family and friends know I'd be a great diver and understand my interest in it.
So just in case you are wondering, I have my name because I ride freight trains with my awesome dad, but thats a whole other story I can explain some other time.
I hope to be a good member on here, and have a long career on here!
Enjoy the weekend everybody and happy diving.
