That looks painful.

Ok, here's my tough guy story. Wading barefoot out to the dive boat in Bonaire one time I stepped on a sea urchin. Didn't even know it until I started gearing up and saw the black dots on my heel when I was pulling on my boot. The divemaster looked at it and said they have to come out. So he pulled some Adolph's Meat Tenderizer and a pair of needle point tweezers out of the first aid kit and started digging around in my foot. I almost passed out (you know when your vision starts to close down like looking out of a tunnel). By the time he was finished my heel looked like hamburger meat and there was a huge puddle of blood on the deck. So I geared up and made the dive. Down about thirty or forty feet I noticed a thin green thing coming from the top of my boot. I thought it was seaweed and brushed it off. Later in the dive I looked and had picked up another piece of seaweed on my boot and brushed it off again. After the dive when I pulled off my boot it was full of blood. The "seaweed" I saw was actually blood seeping out the top of my boot, at forty feet blood is green.

Moral to the story: Always wear your dive boots when wading out to the boat.

Thanks for the tip. I am still waiting for my friends to get their medical paperwork done so we can get on with the scuba training. I have already done as much of the online free course lesson that is available.

Morning WD
Now did he listen to you the last time? :laughing7:
 

Good Morning ! I have company. He's a 93 year old rockhound. He drove up from Kansas to get cancer cut off his ear ( he did that yesterday). Today he headed back to Rapid City to get a hitch put on his mini van. He's been writing his life story so he is meeting up with a lady whose working on that with him. Tomorrow I took off work so we can go rattle rock hunting. It's not going to be very nice weather, but he doesn't care... Saturday we are going back to Rapid to a high school rodeo event. Then I think he heads back on Sunday or Monday. He's a very knowledgeable old duffer and has done many things in his life. He drinks nothing but coffee. Eats a big breakfast. Always has something to do and something to think about. Reads all the time. He's outlived 3 of his 4 kids. Traveled all over. He enjoys watching my betta fish while at the table.

Add my condolences, RR. I understand. Just lost my sister recently. Cant plan for how one's going to feel. Remember one thing though, how would your uncle *want* you to feel.

That sounds like some fun quality time. Enjoy! BTW, what is "rattle rock hunting?"

I remembered to turn on the ceiling fan before they started building their nests this year. This might be the 2nd year since we moved in that I caught that in time. Saves a lot of clean up. Maybe we will get to enjoy sitting on the front porch this year.

Let me rephrase that bill....this information is vital to me !! Wow there's alot. Already very interesting info on 1935 hurricane casualties!!
 

I've accessed this before but it seems much bigger now !!
 

Bart,

No problem always willing to lend a hand to a fellow pirate. Here's hoping some of the info leads you to some unfound treasures.
