    Yes, I do, but I am trying to move to some saltwater. I really miss living at the shore, time will tell.

    I really do love Willow Springs though, just because of how chill it is there. You can't get any more laid back than that place!

    I live in Harrisburg PA so I have been wet in both Dutch and Willow. I love Willow as well...this time of year the vis isn't normally to bad. Once it gets warmer though...the algea does indeed bloom!. There is also Bainbridge sportsmans club just south of Harrisburg (Near three mile Island) that is very nice to dive, The area surrounding the actual quarry is a bit more "rustic" than are Dutch or Willow ...but the diving is great.

    Nice, I live near Willow so if you are in the area to dive let me know and maybe we can meet up. The algae bloom has not been nearly as bad in the past as the new owners have been treating the water with bales of barley.

    I love going to Dutch, and try to make the trip 3 times a year. Cold is relative, ther are hot showers.... Vis wonders depending on number of divers at a location. But I dive in the Finger Lakes so anything over 15' vis is awsome to me....

    If you have never been it is worth the trip...

    When I lived in the area, I was up there every opportunity. The varied environment that training there provides is too good to pass up.
