I'm looking forward to posting pics of our surface intervals. Should bring a smile to our frozen brethren's faces. :cold: ........well, maybe not.

Oh I'll be smiling for you guys. You won't see it though - the toque's pulled down and the scarf's pulled up.

But I'll be smiling... :moose:

Maybe a little envy will help warm me up.

It was definitely a lovely day. I didn't see anything extraordinary but the dives were lovely regardless. Actually, I take it back, TeamCasa and his lovely bride swam hand-in-hand. It was the most romantic thing I've ever seen.

We had a wonderful day of diving yesterday off Catalina. We dove at Lands End and Parsons Landing. The vis was not that great (maybe 20 ft), but it was a beautiful day. We fought a bit of current, but overall it was good diving. We saw beautiful sea stars, sea bass guarding their eggs, spanish shawl nudibranchs, keyhole limpids, and the usual cast of underwater characters.

We could see Catalina and Santa Barbara Islands immediately upon leaving Long Beach and could see Mount Baldy from Catalina as well. The seas were calm so the boat crossing was easy. We were on the Great Escape out of Long Beach and Tim and his crew did a marvelous job of taking care of us. The food was excellent and the crew helpful and accomodating. I couldn't recommend a boat more highly! Tim and crew, thank you for a great day of diving and fellowship.

Pictures to follow...

You can be a bad guy and a romantic at the same time. James Bond is romantic one moment and a stone cold killer the next.:shocked2:
