ooooo... an anchor! That would look great in the yard. Dennis - how did you resist the temptation?
 
Pafinder found that anchor too! I tried to grab it, but it required work, and it was still early in the dive. Didn't feel like dragging it around the whole dive. LOL I know where it is.. maybe next time... :evilgrin:
 
Vis was pretty darn good, water temp wasn't too cold and the air temp was nice after the dive. I didn't get to enjoy the good food and company at the cook out, but I plan to next year (or whenever a sooner one is planned). It was nice meeting the faces behind the names that I read about and see pictures from.

I'm bummed that I missed the spotted or cownose rays - but sure am glad they were there ! I did see the HUGE southern sting ray. Here are some of my pics

The green razor was showing me his dance moves

the stoplight parrot fish was pretty funny, he was in for a cleaning and me taking his picture was NOT gonna interfere. I took 4 or 5 shots before the angel fish came over to check me out, then the parrot fish took off.

The 6th picture of the sailfin and seaweed blenny is in the area I now call the playground. There are about 3 jawfish, 10 sailfin blennys, numerous seaweed blennys, a sea spider and more. Great little area. These two are the ones that D2Deb took shots of on Thanksgiving. The seaweed blenny is pretty playful. He looks like he's trying to hide from the sailfin blenny - hahaha can't see me

Mr Octo let me take a few shots, then he covered his eyes with an arm.

The shot coming out of the water. I think I made it out before sunset :idk:

MB, I thought about it for quite a while, but decided to complete my dive without it.
 
Great trip with Little Deeper on Saturday morning followed by way to much turkey and wonderful apple pie! Thanks to all the cooks and Walter the frymaster :)

Awesome pics all! Enjoying reliving the wonderful event! Thanks!
 
Jenny, how's your hand feeling?
 
thanks for asking. It is getting better, but very slowly. Most of the tingling is gone from the side of my body, and is not as intense in my hand.
