    Default ByeBye Florida- Hello Costa Rica

    Well friends/enemies I will miss you all. The time has come to change gears so my family and I are moving to Costa Rica. On Oct.3 God willing I will be going south to start a new adventure. We will be opening a Day Spa and some bungalows in Playa Avellanas, Guanacaste , C.R. I will post updates as to when we will be opening so please come visit us and enjoy a little PURAVIDA. Plenty of dry caves near us so eventually I will begin searching for wet ones. I hate to miss the Anti Social but I guess you cant be more Anti than not showing up at all. I relinquish the RoShamBo title to Sid since he was runner up, I leave the direction of the Florida Underwater Cave Dwellers (F.U.C.D.) to any member willing to lead anywhere and the newly formed Wacked Karst Research Personnel (W.K.R.P) is headed by co-founder the "Curator" Gary L. . Checkout W.K.R.P gear config pic below. Dive ,dive ,dive and please all take care of yourselves and each other.

    Hey Herbie, It has been a lot of fun knowing you! I think they do have computers where you are going so please keep in touch. Thank you for your help at the Clean Up at Vampire sink! You will be missed, Cindy Butler

    Doesn't Costa Rica have enough problems? My God, man, how can you be so heartless?

    Good luck Herbie!!! That picture was very funny. You did forget the pink fins though.

    Dive safe,

    Man, that sucks. I've been training for the roshambo for months now, and I even have a stuffed dummy with your picture on its face to crotch kick! I've even had the wife, kids, mother-in-law, and neighbors kicking me in the nads in pursuit of the title. Anyway, I have never met you, but I wish you and your family the best.

    Herbie-!

    How can you do this to us-? Now, I am really disappointed that I won't get to dive with you in JB. Well, maybe someday we'll hook up & get to dive huh. I wish you the best, & remember one thing: Find yourselves the biggest overhead to duck into if another hurricane ever heads in your direction. {never I hope}
    Take care of yours & yourself.
    Your friend, forever.

    Herbie, best of luck to you in costa rica, will miss you at the antisocial. Be careful wandering the rain forest and stay in touch. Bill
