I just don't log dives
After many years living in Singapore and working in Indonesia, Thailand, and Malaysia, we will be relocating back to lovely Seattle a week or so before Christmas. We will split our time, between the Pacific NW and Indonesia. I will miss the easy access to the warm, current-rich waters of Indonesia. I have not used a 7mm wetsuit or drysuit since the mid-1980s in California - so I totally spoiled. I have no idea if I will teach diving in Seattle. One positive note, we will be relatively close to southern Baja California and southern California dive sites and will be able to ski during the winter.
 
I am in denial about diving dry, purchasing cylinders, and poor viz. I am excited about exploring new dive sites and perhaps visiting diving friends in British Columbia.

Welcome back to the PNW

Put God's Pocket Home on your must dive list.
 
The photographs @God’s Pocket are outstanding. It’s not a long drive for us and we have good friends nearby. I will purchase a used dry suit and work on my buoyancy and trim. After I understand what I like and do not like, I will probably order a custom dry suit. I am not sure about my wfe’s desire to dive dry, although she would love to visit and dive at In B.C..
