Dive day # 2

Up waaaay early this morning….. I woke up 45 minutes before I needed to be up…. goofy thoughts running through my brain that kept me from going back to sleep. So I got on up – and enjoyed some extra wake up time. Got caught up on world news and then went out and got my gear together ready for another day of diving. Came in, checked out the wonderful world of FB and what was going on there…… Somewhere in there, my Queen came staggering out and started her wake up routine. I got my camera/batteries all bumped charged, put in the case and got it hauled out to the truck. I nuked me a sausage, egg and cheese biscuit and washed it all down with a fist full of pills and a big swallow of milk. Beer cooler put together and I was ready to head out the door. Gave my bride a kiss and away I went.

The Sea’s were nice and smooth as we headed out to the first dive site. Visibility is still really FUBAR’d…… don’t know what is causing it – but I’m tired of it and ready for it to go back to normal. ONE [very uncooperative] shark….. but did manage some fun other shots – even with the crappy vis~ A long bouncy ride to the second dive site…… jeeez Louise what a ride…… finally under the water where it is considerably calmer – but again some most loused up visibility…….. however >insert evil grin here<….. I got a couple of Octopus shots that just made my entire day~!!! Some other good coral shots….. but the Octopus…… AHHhh yes~!  Yes! YES~! Finally back in port….. boat unloaded, icy cold Budweiser in my Koozie and 30 minutes later back at the house……. Gear rinsed, pictures uploaded and edited and up on the boss’ FB page. My Bride fed me a “carboard” pizza — fairly nasty…. but it was the thought that counts and it served its purpose soaking up some alcohol……

Now I sit here and type as Angie is on her tablet talking with one of the kids…. I am managing to ignore most of the conversation so I can keep my train of thought typing this…… for now – Gonna get me a shower, maybe a bit more to nibble on. No diving tomorrow. Kids have asked me to fill in as a trail guide for the ATV’s….. so taking a diving break for a day…….. So a change of pace in pictures for you for a day.

Good Night Ya’ll – – – – – – – – – – – – – – Thankx for stopping in~!

Born in Germany as an Army brat - I moved permanently to the United States about the time I was ready to start school - Dad put to me to work when I turned 13 tearing off roofs and packing shingles.. I did that, DE tasseled corn and bucked hay all the way through high school. After graduation, moved down South for a year or so trying to figure what I wanted to do. Finally came home and joined the Air Force serving almost 5 years - which included a 3 year tour in Germany, where I met my Queen. Came home and started working as a roofer. Economy went to crap and I knew I would not be able to support my growing family the way I wanted to, so I pestered the HR department at General Electric until they hired me. A very quick almost 34 years, 4 Daughters and 9 Grandkids later - here I am .... waiting as patiently as I can, to start the next chapter of our life - romping around in the Caribbean Sea checking out the various islands that we have not been to yet. Holy $hit what a ride~!!!! ;-)
