I haven't gone diving up near San Fran. I'm sure there are some guys on this board who can point you in the right direction, but I'm pretty ignorant of anything up that far north.
Thanks MeTo. I appreciate the invitation in RI--I hear the stripers are fun to hunt up there--but I probably won't have a chance to take you up on it. Good hunting, and thank you for your service as well.
I was looking for a line on cheap lodging but I think I figured that out. I'll probable stay at the La Quentis Ted said it was under $100 a night if you know of better options let me know.
I'd be happy to call, but I didn't take the full intermediate. I just went down and dove the line while the intermediate course was going on. However, a bunch of my dive buddies have taken the intermediate. Would you like me to pass your number on to one of them. Or, would you like Ted Harty's number? Let me know?
