I will not be available the 4th weekend as I am booked to go shark diving in the Bahamas the week of, 10/22- 10/29/21. So it looks like it's the 3rd(16-17) weekend for me.

Let’s pick a Saturday for the event. If anyone wants to dive on Sunday, that’s great.

Based on the responses to the idea of a fall meet in Monterey, Saturday, October 16 looks like the current favorite. Your comments, please. BTW, here is a link to the cam at the Breakwater/San Carlos Beach: adventuresbythesea.com/ocean-cam/

Unless someone has an objection, I am making an executive decision and selecting Saturday, October 16, 2021 as the date for our Monterey Meet. We will set up our tents on the grass at San Carlos State Beach park and I expect that the usual suspects will show up. I am going to inform the dive shops of the event and I hope that someone (that's you, Jay) will prepare an artsy-fartsy flier that I can post around town.
I will bring coffee and something good to eat, you all bring your gear and your years of experience with which to awe the current generation of push-button divers. Bring something unusual and interesting. Jethro the Wonder Dog will be the official mascot. As always, your comments are appreciated.

That sounds good Jim. I'd be happy to have you all (even Jethro) come by my place in Pebble for pizza and beer Saturday evening. I always used to cook abalone for these kind of get togethers. I miss picking those tasty mollusks .
Good Dives, Charlie

Something that we need to consider is the resurgence of Covid 19. The Delta variant is reported to be more transmissible than chicken pox and may infect the fully vaccinated. (https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2021/07/30/coronavirus-covid-live-updates-us/).
That said, let's plan to attend and see how things roll out.

Let's wear masks!
Heh!. Get it? Masks....
OK, stupid joke. I will be there. I'm vaccinated, and am willing to meet up with others who have been. I will take the risk, as it's very small.
I want to dive the Breakwater again. I will bring a bunch of crazy-a** modded regs (and a couple bins of vintage stuff) for sho', plus one reliable DH reg I can dive w/o problems.

This is Car Week in Monterey. If this doesn't cause any problems we should be able to safely get together.
