I have a thing about trying to dive in non-popular dive locations. The training tubs that everybody dives have become boring and there is not much to find there. Since this original posting I have joined the Isanti County Sheriffs Department Dive Team. A lot of my available dive time has been used up doing training dives for the county, but I am always interested in a fun dive! I have all the gear including a 14' inflatable dive boat and 15 tanks. I dive wet or dry depending on the time of year and location. I wish I could dive every day but My job is messing with my ability to do that. I have two underwater metal detectors and I can't think of anything more fun than muck-diving at some out-of the way swimming hole. I have found a ladies wallet (w/drivers license, credit cards, and folding money), 150+ anchors, 18 fishing rods, 5 tackleboxes, a trolling motor, 6 sunglasses, 2 necklace's, 2 bracelets, 3 rings, 3 pairs of matching hoop earrings, a very old brass flashlight, an oxen leg bone, a possible buffalo leg bone, a lot of bottles, 6 cars, 1 truck, the lid from a safe, 5 old wood boats, 1 fiberglass boat, a complete fish house, and about $80.00 in change! I am not the most experienced diver you will meet but I am among the most safety conscientious.

I have been in and out of diving since 1994 and looking to find some people to start diving with locally. I have never dove in Minnesota and would like to start getting involved in dives up here. Most of my diving have been in the Florida Springs.

I'm also looking to do more diving this season. Nothing better then cooling off with a dive on a hot summer day. I live in the east side of the metro and am free evenings and weekends.
