Winter non-diving blues

Man this is painful... It is cold and windy outside and the lakes are all covered with ice. On top of that I don't have the time or money to take a dive vacation right now. All my gear is packed away in the garage awaiting a new adventure. I envy people like Mike (see underwater picture below) who lives in Maui. I would love to be able to go anytime and dive in paradise. Some people are so lucky.

Up here in Calgary, everyone is into Skiing. I like skiing but I don't have the time or money to invest in the expensive sport. I tried snowboarding once and it was a lot of fun. If you fall against the hill it is no big deal, but when you fall the other way, down the hill it is a big wake up call. I would like to do it again some time.

I am planning a trip to the Rendezvous on the West Coast of Vancouver Island for the May long weekend 2007. If you wanna go, contact me.

In the mean time, Merry Christmas to all.
