So I dove the Mahi...

Canon G10 & underwater housing still working good at 80 feet!
This eel was hanging out in a an old port hole on the side of the Mahi. 

Almost too big for my little camera, but not quite.
So I dove the Mahi, with a few friends on Sunday.  It was a great experience.  I really wish I could get out more and do more dives like this.  Calm seas (for the most part) and excellent sea life.  We even saw a few Sting Rays.  (Their picture didn't turn out well, and I wasn't about to chase them down for another picture.)

Thanks again John for dragging me along with your crew, there were a blast to hang out with even if they didn't like my iced tea...

-Cheers!

So I went hiking...

I went on a hike with the wife to an old pill box.  This was an outpost from the '50s used to keep an eye out for bad guys coming in from over the horizon.  As you can see here, it has _not_ been preserved with the original paint scheme.  Perhaps a bit edgy for some, I like it.

-Cheers
