Ok, that might be alittle much, but all in all not a great diving day for me.
I decided to take the day (friday) off work, and headed out to Blue Hole with my dad for some diving. I was looking forward to it, since I have never gone on a weekday, and was looking forward to an uncrowded day of diving.
So we get in, me with my wife's (expensive) camera, planning to take some pictures while the viz was pretty good. About halfway through the dive, I unclip the camera to take some pics, and I see what looks like a single drop of water in the housing on the camera. "Crapola, I better surface quick" ran through my mind, until I looked closer and realized that what I thought was a drop of water was actually an air bubble, the only teeny tiny bit of air left in an otherwise completely flooded housing.
I have had the DAN equipment insurance for years, and never had to use it, so I filed a claim on the camera. I am worried they might not cover it, but we'll see I guess.
Then, on the way back to Alb., a semi hurled a chuck of rock at my windshield, and put and 12-14 inch crack in it. :shakehead
On a completely different note, we did talk to some nice people out at BH today. Some type of group that looked like they were taking some kind of soil sample from the bottom, and some other people that were from CO. If anyone was out there today, we were ones parked at the picnic tables.
And, my annual pass for BH arrived this week.
Alright, enough of my random thoughts. I am gonna try and go next weeked and see what else I can break
