Bonaire Reef Scene with Patty

Bonaire Reef Scene with Patty

Good morning all, looking thru my Bonaire photos I sent out already I noticed I had not sent one out of our friend Patty yet and found this one just waiting to be sent.  Patty is Sal’s wife and while in Bonaire they had me over for dinner quite a few times, and let me tell you there’s nothing like a home cooked meal while on vacation!!  I can’t remember which dive site this was at but I think it was Red Beryl again??  I remember we had just got to the edge of the reef and this sponge cluster was the first thing I spotted, it stood out like a sore thumb!  This was the first time I had ever seen Yellow Tube sponges growing next to Purple Stove Pipe sponges and then topped off with Green Finger sponge all around the base, it was a beautiful specimen.  The other thing that really stands out in my mind was all the fish on this dive, it Brown Cromis Heaven!  Patty timed her swim over perfectly and I was able to get a few of her above the sponge cluster before we moved on in search of other fascinating things.
 
Not much new going on, Aimee and I are headed out to do some trail work soon but other than that the day is still unwritten.  Better go, talk to you more tonight, Barry
