Default New in "town"

Hey All,

Thought I should intro myself before getting too involved in threads. So heres a quick run down on myself in the hopes you will know where I am coming from.

Am fixing to turn 50! yet am still blessed with the body of a 45 year old... Am retired U.S. Navy and once the kids were grown and gone it was either start living for myself or sit in the house and stare at the walls (or my tank). Being an easy decision, I packed up two suitcases in 2004 and jumped on a plane and moved to Mactan Island, The Philippines with my knock down gorgeous wife, Linda. Ever since then I have been doing nothing but studying the reefs and working as a dive boat's divemaster. In short, I am living THE life, and know how blessed I truly am.
As such, one can not have a passion about the reefs and with my daily access to them, can not help but learn. That learning has inspired me to write a few diddlys and hope that by sharing, it will be of help to others less "fortunate?".
Thanks, and am looking forward to being active within the discussions.
