Hello mnscuba

[Marc]

Things have finally settled down after my move to Minneapolis in the middle of last year, and our trip back to South Florida for the kids upcoming Spring Break has got me thinking about getting back in the water on a  regular basis.

Being a confirmed warm water wuss after years of living in Florida, I'm know I'm going to have to learn how to use a drysuit and get used to fresh water.

A more immediate need is to have our regs serviced (Mares and Aqualung), new batteries in our Suunto computers and my tanks viz'd before we head off to Florida at the end of the month.

Being new to the area and not knowing anyone, I'm looking for recommendations for a LDS for the above and info on dive clubs, though I figure if I peruse this site a bit more I'll get my answers.

I live in Lakeville and work in the Bloomington/Eden Prairie area. I will admit I've been spoiled by having so many choices close to home when I lived in Florida, but where I live/work would not limit my going further afield for the right shop.

Thanks, and I hope to meet a lot of you as soon as the ice comes off the local water holes and I get myself something better thicker than my 3mm and skins.
