gold boy,

Good for you we've had 7 cats over the years and all except 1 were rescues. taking care of rescued animals is good karma.

i just looked out the door and there was a grey kitten asleep on the bench we are going try to tame him. we named him rebel

I dove the "Alicia" today. Shes an old spanish steamer that grounded on ajax reef in 1901. She was built in 1893. 77 small wrecking vessels and 500 men were involved in the salvage. I stayed down on her for an hour with my partner 11 year old scotty. We were at 20 feet at the deep part and about 15 feet in the shallower parts. This electric brownie hooka rig is a dream !! I was super proud of my protege scotty. He was right there with me fannig sand on the wreck. This one had general merchandise including fine silks, linens, household furniture, pianos, and wine and liquer from europe in route to havana !! After 2 weeks the dry goods had been off loaded and the divers could no loger salvage because inside the ship the water was so polluted with fermenting rice, rotting codfish, and disolving potash that the wreck was abandoned. Some of the divers were blinded for 24 hours from this mixture. I actually found stacks of linens still intact under the sand. The indigo dye in these linens stained my hands blue/purple. This wreck is in biscayne national park so nothing but the lobsters was I allowed to bring home !!

This is the funniest scene of the movie! Makes it clear how the KKK invented the "right" masks for Raids

"Auf Wiedersehn".... Bull´s Eye LOL

Today we have a half day of diving before my boss flies out. So I think ill focus on shooting somthing with a spear. The boy scotty does not quite have the hand strength to pull the band back to full power on the hawian sling, so we will work on some spearfishing techniques today. After years of spearfishing I have become very selective. I took only one shot this week and it was a glancing blow and my trophy hogfish is still out there swimming. Like mel used to say today is the day !!

 

[Blak bart]

Good morn and see ya later, time to get back in the water. Wooo hoo I cant wait to get to work !!
