Well it was another great adventure with Gary and his crew. I unfortunalty didnt have that great of a trip. The trip out to the site must of did me in. LOL I was a little green. I was fine during my first dive. Saw lots including the 3 or 4 other divers that RAN into me. I was thinking GEEZ people we are out in this big'ole ocean around this BIG'ole ship and youve gots to bounce into me,,,, ***... I thought you had to have your ADV card to do this dive? Lets not forget to keep a watchful eye out for your surroundings and yes that should include OTHER DIVERS... ok my rant is over whew i feel better now. Anyhow after my dive was over Walter Denise and i headed back topside. I had a bit of air left so i let them exit first. I grabed the ladder on the back of the boat removed my fins and handed them up and thats when it all hit me.... I guess the little bit of being tossed around and bobing at the surface is what sent me over the edge cuz after that when i was aboard i tell you i couldnt get my BC off fast enough before i leaned over the side of our vessel and fed the fishies..... (RALF). I soon realilized i was on the side of the boat whiched faced all the other boats, that was apparent by the applaud and chears i had gotten from the other boats as i fed the fishies..lolol oh well im glad i was able to amuse some other divers. Probably was the bas$%^*s that bounced into me on the dive..lolololol and that was the end of my day. I choose to sit out my 2nd dive cuz i didnt really feel like cleaning puke out of my reg. All in all it was a good trip. Ill take any day good or bad of diving over anyday of work. I managed to feel good enough for a afterdive report to take place at Florabama, WOW what an experience that place was. To tell all would need a whole nother thread im thinking ill stick with the Vegas saying.... " What happens at Florabama stays at Florabama". right Denise? hehehe and on that note ill put to rest my dive report.
Untill next time be safe and keep diving ,

. I hit a max depth of 96 ft and an avg of 67 ft and a total bottom time of 34 minutes. Walter's pictures tell the story. We had an awesome time and saw an abundance of sea life and I loved poking my head in the doors and looking in and shining my light in pipes and openings. That is when I found one of your octopus Donna!! I saw a pipe and I thought about your story about playing peek-a-boo with one who lived in a pipe and I decided to take a peek and sure enough, there she was with her little broken shells in front of her. I was so excited I got Walter's attention and he took several pics to share. Capt. Gary and DM John took great care of us and it was fun to holler at folks on the other boats. I counted 7 while we were there. We ended the day at FloraBama with Gary, Linda, Andreas and Kristal and also got to visit with DM Brian and his new wife for a few minutes who had just got married at the beach at 4 pm that day.
