This was my first dive in the sound had a great time. Thank you Penelope for setting me up with Brian and Jeanna. They were awesome. 3 octos 2 lumpies Some decorator crabs. Those little guys were so cute. Couple of cod some rock fish a flounder or sole, I don't know which... A dry suit has been bumped to the top of my list. I was rather impressed with the viz.. At least 30 ft I'd say. Thanks again. Nw dive club is awesome.

You're welcome! I'm so glad you could make it! Brian and Jeanna are pretty awesome, and any dive with lumpies is a winner indeed.

You forgot the juvie wolfeel! Was great diving with you, Jared. I can't believe you powered through 2 dives in the wetsuit...brr.

A huge thank you to Penelope being an awesome hostess, as always.

That was a lot of fun. Was great to see some old faces and new ones as well

Always a pleasure to see ya Penelope and what a fantastic job throwing this all together! Had a great time and did two big buddy dives. Hey does anyone know how to get these pictures and video to Zoe? She was the young newer diver and I went on their first dive and got her some footage for her to show people.

Thanks P!
You rock!
I've organized at least one of these dives before and I know it takes some time out of your life to nail down details.

You always do a great job organizing these club dives!
Now, where are all of the pictures?

To all who were there, please post above and below pictures here!

If all else fails, I think Phil Watson knows her (at least her dive buddy).

Oh yeah....hm, photos...

: Just out for a stroll. No big deal.

: Itty bitty moon snail

: ...WHAT is that big thing with flashing lights???

The theme of the day...tiny things! I found three...three baby octos (ha! ha! ha!) a juvenile wolf eel (of course, we all found him...must be lonely there today) little moon snails, and a larval jellyfish (that photo didn't come out so great...) Man, gotta love Redondo!!

Thanks Ppants and thank you Jared for the two great dives! Good luck finding
that drysuit! Here are a few pics from our second dive.

Great pics, Jeanna!

Those pic are pretty cool. Those lumpies were bigger than I thought they would be.

Got most of the pictures processed today. Here are a few (and I gotta say, this UW photography is going to be addictive, I can already tell...) from my second dive with Mike (Penders). And I am seriously LIKING the Oly XZ-1

Penelope, you are officially "tha shizz" (which is a good thing).

Thanks for putting together yet another fantabulous CLUB DIVE! CLUB DIVE! CLUB DIVE!

To all the new and old friends, great to see you all.

By the way Jeanna, your first and fourth photos blew my socks off!

BASSMAN · Post by **BASSMAN** » Tue Feb 21, 2012 11:13 am

The only photo's that turned out for me were of the "Scull" at the Carousel boat and a few picks of the dead Harbor Seal.
Given the un-forseen circumstance of the deceased diver at Cove 2, I felt it was better to, not post them.
But still was a great dive and it was fun to see that Juvinile Wolfie, swimming out in the open.
