There are a thousand E. Palm Drives in the state unfortunately. Somehow I fear that showing up on his doorstep, empty tanks begging for a charge of 02, and blatant inexperience leading the charge, I would not find the muse I was searching for

There may be a day and a time we share the same dive, alas, I am not the one prepared to share on that opportunity as of yet.

Put his ass on a ski slope.. completely different story, but it is old news, I want a diving story front page now.

What about water skiing? Have you considered that?

Like I said in the PM I am way SE of you. A good 3 or 4 hours in Pompano.

If you showed up at my doorstep the first thing I would do is take you to get certified. Then we would go visit Riverrat, in the Keys and do some really great diving.

Water Skiing can't hang with this.

I have no desire to water ski, been there done that, does not hold a candle to snow skiing, diving on the other had is something I feel I MUST do, that and skiing of any sort are not comparable in any way shape or form.

All the real diving, and all the real sights of the coast I want to see and experience are NOT nearby, I can deal with a few hours travel to experience and to truly lean my way around. Unfortunately I must break my way into the game via baby steps and even if I were to go on a dive with you, it would only serve to hold you and your companions back.

I will get there, I have faith in that, it is just a matter of taking the first steps, as is true with every other endeavor, after I take those steps, it all falls together from there. There is no shortage of divers here I suppose, although I have not looked in earnest, it is more a shortage of opportunity and motivation on my part, both things I dearly would like to overcome in the not so distant future,
