Jayne & Gary

This is Gary's first time scuba diving

Jayne is more nervous than Gary !!

OK - breath Gary !

Scuba Diving

Gary getting ready to go in the water

Bob already in and said it was

COLD when you first get in !

Gary's like....

Am I ready for this !!

OK - they're in the water practicing a little 

before they start their workout !

They are cleaning the bottom of 

Gary's boat....preparing for the trip north

in a day or two

Almost done now

Gary getting out - a little exhausted !

This was a momentous time for Gary

He's always wanted to Scuba Dive and 

had a great time...although he really didn't get

to enjoy it to it's fullest, he was just thankful to 

clean the boat !

Jasmine is all about resting and not

worrying about all the foolishness going

on around her !

 Bruce & Bonnie

Bruce hasn't been feeling to well...hence

all the clothes !

Duke has been away for the last couple of 

weeks and really missed Guenther....and 

Guenther really missed Duke !!

Today was another very busy day!  We went over to Gary's first thing and cleaned the bottom of his boat.  Afterwards, Jayne & I got on our bikes and pedaled our arses off!  I went to MVA and got my FL Drivers License, then to the Thrift Store twice, Fausto's for dinner products, Post Office to mail off a package to Kathy (she left her jeans here by accident), Marine store to replace our bow & stern lights for the dinghy (we lost our other ones in the Valentine's Day storm due to water), Ace Hardware to get nuts fitted for all the screws that came with the boat that didn't have nuts...the guy that helped me out was really happy to see me ! He told another employee "we were building a boat !"

By the time I got home Bob had checked the engines and change filters, put in the new windless controller, went with Gary and filled another 4 cans of diesel fuel, and had rinsed and was drying all the scuba gear.  By then we were both exhausted and ready for a nap !  NOT - we packed up our Happy Hour products and went over to Jayne & Gary's for dinner.  We were supposed to do the island but they decided to have it on Gary's boat instead.

I talked with Randy at EOC and he said they were preparing for a storm which could bring anything from 3" to a foot of snow !  I told him maybe we would wait another week before we left !  No since in rushing into anything!  Denbow happened to be in the vicinity of the office while I was talking to Randy and of course had nothing but good things to say to me that Randy was kind enough not to pass on to me, although he did say that they missed me  :0)
