Still looks pretty in there on my end, Jan, but yes compared to the rest this one is skippable.

Jan: You are getting spoiled. You are doing a new dive, in warm clear water, with your daughter. I would not dismiss any of the adventures I had with my sons. Is that Maya using the side mounts ?

Hi Jan,
Great images as always but I also want to thank you for digging up all that background information.
Appreciatively yours,
Alex

Jan: As a whale enthusiast, I read your posting with great interest. I have been watching three grays feeding in front of my house for the last month. One of them appears to be a juvenile similar to the one you photographed. Since they have been hanging out on the east of Whidbey, I doubt it is the same. The ghost shrimp feeding that they pursue while they are here is described as a "high risk strategy". I suspect that will lead to a high mortality. Thanks for posting this. - Curt

Thanks Chris, it was a fun trip.
Sunday morning at the Deception Pass. Divers, divers and more divers. First decent currents since the gate to Little North Beach opened. I noticed that the prediction for near Bowman Bay list the Low Tide levels higher than the High Tide prediction. Makes you wonder how that works. Well, we had interesting currents, not strong, just confused, depending where one happened to be.

Confusing indeed. Flood > slack > ebb > flood again > ebb again. Most of us spent 15" swimming 'home' against the flood before it really changed.
