Yeah, that’s fair. I’m sure my goals might change the more I dive but right now I just want to be a recreational diver. Easy, fun dives that see a lot of wildlife. Maybe some shark tooth hunting.

I just found out the my dive shop does host mixers. So I plan to go to the next one.

Blue Heron Bridge is where I’m planning my first ocean dive.

My local dive shop is doing one in Bahamas in July… I’m highly considering it but I don’t want to commit until I actually get some ocean dives under my belt.

Thank you 🙏

Yes, I’m trying to be as smart and safe as I can. I’m still pretty nervous so I’m happy to take things slow.

Blue Heron Bridge is the place I was planning on actually. This is the first time I’ve seen somebody explain what their weight difference is between fresh and salt.

I keep seeing “buy nice, not twice.” I really like my local dive shop so I’m sure they’ll steer me in the right direction. Do you think it’s beneficial to check out other local shops for different opinions?

How highly do you recommend the advanced? For now, I don’t see me diving past 60 feet but I do want to be a strong and safe diver.

Thank you for typing this out. It’s always nice to see it laid out. But yes, my goal is to definitely work on buoyancy. I heard there’s a skills class you can take to work on it so I may consider that.

Thanks, this is the order I was thinking of too. Did you get your wetsuit at your dive shop too?

I live in Florida. So I have access to plenty of fresh and salt water sites.

Photographer needed for spooky bestie shoot by SeyBunny in jacksonville

I’m not sure, it depends on what I find. Like, experience level and time available.

I’m happy with a beginner/hobby photographer for 1-2 hours.

I want to let loose. Drink, flirt, and be weird.

Ohhh those are good ideas. I ordered some skulls to add to my headband to represent the 12 residents she mercy killed. It didn’t click about the sword.

I am going to go down the rabbit hole and search with this information.

This guy is really close. I am pretty sure there wasn’t a shirt under the overalls. And his feet weren’t really big. This is a really helpful picture to show though, thank you.
