Kimo and I dove one dive at Keystone then ferry to Port Townsend for two dives. I met Dusty2. A vis was nice.

Bob: Of course I love your pictures. I was anticipating your getting together with Dusty2. No creature was left unfound. Also, Kimo and Dusty2 should have had stories to share, one career Navy and the other career Army. I wish I could have been there, not only the diving, but for the companionship. Thanks for the post.

Happy to be alive.

This won't be a good week for Port Townsend. Too much current.

Last week was awesome. Best viz of the year. Looking forward to Oct. Sunday, Monday and Tuesday were perfect dive days. very light current, sunny skies and good viz!
