I had a wonderful day on Sunday. Heck for that matter, Saturday as well. III, Ann, SamBouy and myself headed over on Saturday to Venice. Grabbed a hotel and chilled by the beach and pool for the rest of Saturday. Very enjoyable and relaxing.

Sunday we had a long drive to meet Jamie about 7-8 minutes Met MAJackson for the first time :thumbs-up. Loaded the boat and off we went (Jamie, Jim, Donny, Ann, Sam, MaryAnn, Debra, and me). We did two nice long dives and found several teeth along with a few megs. I found a 4 1/2"er but alsas it was pretty beat up. Sam, my buddy, found a really nice shell and I spotted two nudibranchs I have never seen in this area Sam and I also found a small nurse shark who seemed relatively content having us watch him for a bit and take several pics. We actually left briefly and came back - he seemed none to bothered. I think we will name him Samuel ;-)

After diving, FossilBabe/Debra, jridg/Jim, Jamie, Donny/III, Ann, SamBouy/Samantha, maJackson/MaryAnn, and myself went for a bit of lunch. Can't remember the name of the place right now, hopefully someone else will chime in, but it was delicious. We sat out on the deck overlooking the water recounting the day and showing Jamie pics of the BLACK groupers I spotted to prove I was not insane and did know my fish :mooner: Debra and I went for a stroll and spotted some rather interesting plants around the restaurant. She will have to post the pic later. :cool2:

Still yet the day wasn't done. With the exception of Jim and Jamie the rest of us headed over to FossilBabe's house. What a treat that was! You would not believe the stuff she has collected over the years from a wide variety of places on land and in water. Most everything is cataloged and organized as well. :doh2: I think the mammoth leg bone was my favorite. Think stylish measum - that is what her place is like. Thanks again Babe for having us over - much appreciated :yelclap:

And well that is all folks.

Donny, Ann, Sam

I think the restaurant was Marker 4

We had a good day! I think I will still be here on the 27th - so my smiling face will be helping everyone onto the boat for the birthday bash

When are you set to leave Jim? Also I don't think anyone from this area is signed up for the BirthdayBash

Oh and about that plant... just what kind was it????

 

[Fossilbabe]

Sorry it took me so long still working on shark teeth. Hopefully I can get them finished today. Lets keep our fingers crossed. Had a great time diving with you and it was just a blast. Thanks for the small teeth as well!!! Pictures came out great of everyone, and love the flower. I think it is a plumeriajuana.
