(BTW, if you are a newer diver and would like an experienced buddy, please go to the e-group (second link above) and post something to that effect, so the organizer can make sure we have enough mentors to go around!)

TSandM,

I'm very interested in joining up with the group to do some diving. Where will you guys be diving next Tuesday? How did tonight go? How was the dive?

We had great fun tonight. Despite the downpour we drove through to get to Redondo, we found broken clouds and some late afternoon sunlight when we got there. I think we had nine people -- Three relative novices, two of whom were trying BP/W setups for the first time, went out with experienced mentors. One guy did his first dive in doubles (he loved them!) I dove with NW Grateful Diver (our first dive as buddies in 2008, which I just shake my head at) and he lent me a 40 to carry around, and we did ascent work. I did my first midwater gas switch, and I was ridiculously pleased with myself at how it went.

Grunt sculpins and sailfin sculpins and octopus and gunnels and all the other usual night Redondo critters were found and duly admired, and a few of us went out for Chinese food after.

I'm not sure where next week's dive will be yet -- Anybody who is interested can go sign up for the yahoo e-group (second line in the OP) and get the notice when it comes out.
