Absolutely. Well, I actually just got certified in the fall, but I am looking forward to logging some dive time this summer.

What a wimp. DIVE IN COLD WATER!!!! I'm diving in northern Ohio next weekend. The surface temperature of the water is currently in the low 50's. Below 40 feet the temp is around 39-41.

I dive from May-November in the Midwest. There are a lot of great dive sites within a few hours drive. Where have you been diving?

I got certified in cold, muddy water... I vowed to never do it again. That's the only diving I've done, and it was at Hidden Paradise in Shelbyville. I couldn't see more than a foot in front of me so I dunno if it was a good site or not

There are a lot of fantastic quarry sites around here. I'm going to Gilboa with my dive shop next week. They advertise it on the shop website and just hope a bunch of people show up. We usually have around 20 different people (many new divers) come with us. It is a fun weekend of camping, eating, and diving.

Check out these dive sites websites. I like mermet the best. We go to all of these locations every year. Mermet in Southern IL even has a 727 from US Marshals sunken in it. You can swim through the plane. Gilboa, where I'm going next week, has a jet to swim through, choppers, an RV, boats, Cessna's, and lots of other stuff. I wear a 7mm farmer john with a hooded vest and am plenty warm.

Please let me know if you would like to go diving at some point this summer. I'd love to have a dive buddy around my age. It is actually pretty reasonably priced to dive in this area too. Rent equipment if needed and simple camp on site. I've never been, but I think Home - Haigh Quarry - The Place for Scuba Diving in Northern Illinois is close to you.
