Howdy

[L.A.]

Greetings from Seattle, Washington...

New to the forum and just wanted to say "howdy!" I'm headed to High Springs in May for a full cave class with Mr. Wyatt. I've been diving in the Pacific NW since high school (which was about 20 years ago) and it's been a long-time dream of mine to cave dive. Looking forward to the clear, fresh water and diving without gloves.

Welcome to the CDF NWdiver. I know you will have fun in FL

I heard there are 49 other states outside Florida....LOL

It's good you realize how fortunate you are to live around such world-class (and warm) diving

[WEPIV]

Have fun when you come down and be prepared to work! You'll enjoy your instructor.... He's a good one.

Hey I too am from Seattle! Renton High School, then South Seattle High, then up to the burbs for Meadowdale High School (during the great white flight).... A stint at Lynnwood Community College, Eastern Washingtion U, then off to Michigan, Texas, and Tennessee.

I've been diving in the sound, british columbia and all over Whidby Island and the San Juans. Florida caves have nothing on the pacific northwest. I'd love to move back, but I'm in Tennessee now and that's how it is. All my family live out in the Seattle area so I do get back to dive from time to time.

Welcome to the forum. When do you plan to be in Florida? Maybe I can get down there to say hi in person. It's rare to meet a fellow seattlite cave diving!
