Good morning all, once again I apologize for the messed up daily blogs, we still are without internet at home!  Yesterday was a very busy day. I first took the dogs for a long two hour walk with our friend Joey down to the salt ponds via the Barry/Arjan trail and did some trail cleaning along the way. It was so hot by 9:00 that we both said, “that’s it”, we were pretty much soaked to the bone from sweat and the dogs were running from one shady spot to the next.

After getting home and washing everyone and eating breakfast I then headed out for some last minute shopping before I leave Wednesday morning and that ended up taking up a good part of the day, it seemed like I went everywhere!  While at work yesterday I brought home my camera gear, tanks and dive gear and at 9:30 last night Aimee and I went for a fun night dive hoping to see some coral spawning. The bad news is we didn’t see any spawning, the good news is we found lots of other cool things to photograph anyways!  We ended up being out there for an hour and a half, I keep forgetting how much I love and miss night diving!  We got home at around midnight and after cleaning our gear and taking apart the camera we finally fell into bed and we were both asleep in seconds!

Here’s another fun shot I got the other day while out touring the reef in mini-sub style!  We found this giant red barrel sponge with this beautiful black crinoid attached to it’s rim, it was picture perfect!

Lots to do today, be back tomorrow, Barry
