Local Diving - and Lobster
Our dive club - UnderSea Adventurers, USA Dive Club for short, plans local dives usually twice each month. We took advantage this week and joined 6 other club members to go out on a dive to the Abby 2 reef, and one other whose name I don't remember.
I belong to the 80-80 club of scuba diving. This means I only like to dive when both the air temperature and the water is 80 degrees or more. This is still winter - March - so the water was 75 degrees. hmmm. But, it looked like a beautiful day - 84 degrees air temperature - and Jim wanted to go diving while it's still lobster season - August 6 - March 31.

It was chilly, but it was a nice dive. Jim got one lobster on each of the 2 dives. He hoped for more, but that's still worthwhile.
I posted the above photo on facebook with the words - Goin' Divin' with my favorite dive buddy. Who am I kidding? He's not my favorite dive buddy - he's my only dive buddy! Who else would
- make sure I had air tanks that were full,
- gather all my gear together and put it in the car.
- Get the gear from the car to the boat
- Assemble my gear
- Watch out for me underwater
- Gather all the gear after the dive and get it back in the car
- Wash it all when we get home
- Put it away?

Not a perfect day
Look at the size of those leaves! |
I think I had the better rainy-day tour, in the rainforest! They're supposed to be seeing the Kilauea crater here. |
