Hello all!!!
New to the board and new to diving. My wife and I will be doing our Open Water class the first two weeks in October. Looking forward to the challenge.
I work as a paramedic and am a volunteer fire fighter--someone mentioned that first time divers sometimes suck down a lot of air there first times in the water. That may be so, but I've been in burning buildings with the roof coming down on my head while wearing SCBA so I think I might be all right. This true?
Anybody around here from my area? The Quad Cities are on the border of Iowa and Illinois with the Mississippi separating us sort of in the middle where Iowa bulges out a bit.
Just wanted to introduce myself and I look forward to hanging out, asking questions and learning.
