This is my dive buddy, Calvin, on our lobster dive.

I finally caught some lobster!!! MMM!

Hey, dad, I just had to throw a lighthouse shot in for you! ;)

We got to go snorkling and diving one last time before Ike got too close.

Waitin' Out the Storm

So much for a hurricane! We just got some rain and wind and 3 days kinda' off. Oh well.

Smoochy-smoochy!!!

Mating ritual? Argument? Play? I have yet to figure out what these White Grunt are doing. Oh well--makes for a great shot. I've seen quite a few fish doing that this week.

Yep! That's a shark!

Don't worry, it's only a nurse shark. They don't really like to eat people, unless you try to get them to take you for a ride. This guy was probably about as big as me. It is fascinating to watch the underwater creatures move and swim. These sharks are so graceful and stealthy.

Another adorable face! ;) ;)

I made it to Florida!!!

Yes, it has been a long time . . . again. I'm in the Florida Keys working as a Divemaster--pretty darn amazing! I'm going to try for at least one "picture of the week" post. So, here's the first one. This is a squirrel fish. Isn't it just adorable--it looks like it needs a hug.

Last Utah Dive

Yes, it has been a while, but I'm gonna' make this quick, 'cause I've got to get back to packing. Yes, Packing! You may have heard the rumor, and yes, it is true. I am moving to Florida--the sunshine state! Michelle and I decided Utah just wasn't right for us at this time, so we're going somewhere where there are beaches, an ocean, and a really long summer. We are both also going to try some new things in our careers.

So, Here are a couple of pictures from what may be my last dive in Utah. I went down to Lake Powell over Memorial Day weekend with a couple of buddies. Unfortunately, no one told the fish that they were supposed to be out and about (we only saw about a dozen, and those trying to fish had no luck). However, it was great to be under the water!
