Looking good. Damn, I wish we had clear water up here so we could snorkle/shallow dive. I'd love to do it, but up here you can't see more than 3 feet in front of your mask. Scares the sh!t outta me like that. There used to be an underground fed fresh water lake near here.. 15-20 feet to the bottom and you could see the bottom from the surface... Then some land developer got the great idea to fill it in and make a shopping mall... That was the end of my snorkeling/diving. <sigh>
