Cheese, wine and fat old free divers. Some things improve with age.

Three PBs, a US record and now my age. What a season.

And to think that Uncle Sam canceled my license ten years ago because I was to old to be useful.

Now I feel like that sixty year old kid again.

Congrats Bill! Guess you got the ears figured out? Did you do another deco stop on the way up?
 
3:07 Josh. I kicked up so as not to scare the safety divers too much.
 
still on bi-fins Bill? more details please. Mask or those silly goggle things

Huge congrats, truly inspirational.
 
And Bill still keeping up with you're age? Going 70m being 70 is really cool! I'll bed you're the coolest dad or even granddad In the world! Do you think you may manage 80 - 80?

Like Trux said we're interested in more details, photo's videos etc! Maybe papa smurf will put it on the DB front page as an example of how great life can be at an older age. With the current culture of people obsessed wanting to stay/look young, your story might give some a more healthier idea of what life is.

Cheers, it's nice to see that America has some of the best divers above 55 years old!

Love, Courage and water,

Kars.
 
All the best Bill, you're an inspiration. Have fun!

Rick
