The Comparative cost of scuba, including instruction

[BoltSnap]

You'd be fine as long as you don't sign up for flight training or try to order large amounts of fertilizer.

But that's what I do for a living; I ship shiit on flights...

I was thinking of summer vacation. Now, I have to recalculate. I need a place where I can always go diving and where the kids can enjoy touristy places and summer camps.

Thunder Bay, Michigan or Door County, Wisconsin?

You've got posters here from Chicago and NY telling you that Florida won't welcome you. I don't believe that the facts support those statements. Do some research of your own.

Here's one, (of many possible), starting points:

Skiing has seen many resorts be bought out and merged into a massive conglomerate. Since this started the prices have climbed and climbed.

FWIW, the price of a single day ticket at a mountain here in SoCal and a dive boat to the Channel Islands is comparable, as is the cost to rent equipment if you don't own.

you are welcome in Chicago.

Grew up in Wheeling and was always skiing Wilmont and Majestic Hills {burnt}. $25 lift ticket & $15 for rentals in the 1970's. Anything that wasn't shear ice was considered powder to us up there. Now I dive and can't get a nitrox rental for $15. It's a small world.

But back then you take your family out to eat for $25 and have enough left over to fill up the gas tank....

You guys are serious about this? Is it that bad there now?

No, that's absolute nonsense. Florida is approximately 44% non-white, which is around the same amount as New York State.
