One Last Time

[lunatim]

I've taken my basic gear on the bus many times; even a BC vest and reg aren't too heavy to schlepp around.  That's wild to learn that I can go diving in a lake that's bus-friendly.  I'm hoping to make the dive in August since it's likely I'll be busy on my birthday.

DQ--too bad she's back in Switzerland   I've noticed that Europeans aren't as hung up about owning a car as Americans and don't consider non-drivers to be second-rate citizens.  What's ironic is that I have a perfect driving record and still even have my DL--it's just that the expense and trouble of a car aren't compatible with my artist lifestyle.  I've had no trouble navigating the public transit systems of Seattle, Brussels, Las Vegas (their monorail kicks butt!), Boston, and Manhattan--unfortunately, Minnesota lags behind when it comes to public transit.  When I have the urge to go scuba diving, that's one of the very few times that not having wheels is a pain in the posterior.  Then again, the money I used to spend on a car could pay for a nice resort or live-aboard dive trip every year or so
