Our club dive today at Cove 2 went well. The weather was fantastic, sunny, and the vis was decent, especially at depth. We met some new NWDC friends, and chatted with old ones. Pen grilled up some yummy burgers, and Yelloweye grilled up some epic Korean Tacos. There were crackcakes, and libation for all. Thank you Pen for putting this together, and thanks to all that attended! Here are a few cell phone shots..

I didnt take the camera on the first dive, but here are a couple shots from the second dive;

This is my buddy Carl. He met me at Alki Junkyard, and evidently he missed me cuz he showed up for the club dive. He is a bit grouchy, as you can see by the shot.

Lots of nudis on both dives, of these two types
