Northwest Dive Club

hmmm so THATS why paul was so excited that he didn't have to dive with me this weekend

i'll chime in as a diver who would LOVE to see more regular diving buddies up north! Rosario beach is a fantastic dive but is fairly open to the sea, can have heavy tides, and im pretty sure the park closes at dusk. Keystone also closes at dusk. Driftwood is open all night, but has no amenities. Sky...

wow congrats on moving to bali! what are you guys going to do there?

it totally sucks to have to give up your family. if i didnt already have two monstrous beasts, i might be able to help, but i cannot.

best of luck though!

wow he sure was curious! nice find

:supz: I figured it was the urethane, but possibly a cleaner. I can't touch many cleaners/harsh chemicals without breaking out in some fashion. I asked Ron up at ADU, and he hadn't seen anything like it before, but didn't have any suggestions. It was mostly from my shins to my waist yesterday, and ...

wowzers

beyond the size, look at the color match.

amazing eyeballs you has!

Hi, I'm Mike. I got certified here in the Puget Sound a couple years ago then went to work in the Middle East after just a few dives. I logged a few more in the Caribbean during a vacation to The Dominican Republic. Now Im back home on vacation and I want to dive as much as I can before I go back t...

Welcome to the club!

Where are you located, do you have a boat, and how long is your vacation?

My mom taught kindergarten for 30 years, and she always read Make Way for Ducklings http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Make_Way_for_Ducklings to her kids each year. When my parents retired, they got to go to the boston gardens and see the bronze statues of the ducks. I agree, ducklings are incredibly cute...

Tonight I met up with Jared, a new local diver, to take him for an evening dive at Keystone. The water was a good deal more turbulent than the surface or the tide charts suggested. It blew us all over the place, which was fine, as we just, well, rode the wave. Being tossed about in the middle of the...

I assure you that I am salivating over the thought of it, but I just can't justify the expense.... wanna swap for my canon a640 with mostly the same toys??

very nice sir

Why have the goat bladders gone so heavily out of fashion? They are My preferred rebreather for ANY invasion

whidbey!? whidbey!!!??? WHIDBEY!!!!!!

congrats dusty!

jan, one of these days im going to grill you on photograph techniques, then follow you around on a dive so I can learn to be awesome, too! I love the full colors of the baby eels and crisp focus all along the shot!

The lower one. The big one looks like it might be a shaggy mouse. If you look real close there is a tiny third egg mass inside the larger egg mass in the lower left. Also there is another nudie inside the large ring on the left side. :angelblue: jeepers dusty, do you have your computer hooked up to...

so im curious if its possible to go diving at detroit lake? Just yesterday we had an engagement ring that was dropped into the lake and we are wondering what the possibility of recovery is. is this a long shot? or maybe possible? The googles are showing a Detroit Lake in Oregon. ? my guess was tota...

on the egg ribbon picture, there are egg deposits, but they all look different. assuming the little slug shown is not a masochist, which of the two bundles are hers?

love the warbonnets, awesome shots dusty

and, how can you be sure it's a dorid if you're so dubious?

Book is now on order and should arrive in 6-8 days. Thanks for the suggestion!

welcome back!

Like others have said, I don't get out that way much, although that town was instrumental in getting me to take diving lessons, but I'll sure get it touch when I can dive with you!

That's awesome!

I do wonder that you guys didn't have fins on. Not necessary with all the current?

Yesterday was the club dive at Redondo Beach. That's close to 24 hours ago, so my memories are already a bit fuzzy. More on the delay, later. It was a lovely day for a dive, and when I arrived at the parking lot, there were already a dozen or so people milling about the parking lot. I greeted severa...
