Greetings from way up North (almost)!
I'm a green horn diver. And I am a proud member of Hoofers Scuba Club at the University of Wisconsin in Madison.
Got my OW on 14/8/2005 and my AOW 21/8/2005.
My first trip diving was a camping/dive trip at Munising, MI and the Alger Underwater Preserve in big lake they call Gitche Gumee (
http://www.munising.com/Attractions/preserve.html). Way cool wreck diving up there. And when you get out of the water you get some of the best scenery available in the North woods.
Next dive was in Lake Michigan for two more wrecks. I'm loving wreck diving, but can't wait for my first salty water trip. Hopefully get to do some diving in Costa Rica in February 06.
