Hello from Alberta

[Keith_88]

Certified OW last summer here in Alberta, in some balmy 7 degrees C water! Oh the joys of a 2 piece 7mm wetsuit. Knocked one item off my bucket list this winter, diving the Great Barrier Reef. After a 3 day liveaboard it is safe to say scuba diving is now an addiction for me, not that I am complaining about that. Although hard to dive when I am staring out the wind at -30 C, and lots of snow.

Looking forward to finding some interesting topics and hopefully get some ideas, advice or answers on things that interest me. Also hoping to read about some great dive sites to add to my bucket list.

I know, lots of reading in my future, should keep me busy until the ice melts and we can hit the water again

Welcome, enjoy the great diving in Alberta. There’s always an open invitation for you to get a taste of the Pacific out here!

Thanks Jay, definitely in my future plans to get out to BC and the island and enjoy some diving in the pacific. My LDS usually plans at least on trip a year out to Hornby Island, planning on joining in on one once I get some drysuit dives under my belt.

Welcome. Glad you're here, in the hobby and having a good time. Early in and you've already done a live-aboard and dove at the Great Barrier Reef. Not a bad start!
