Kalahari Friday Night

Elaine and I went to Sandusky for a few days as summer ends. We stayed at the Fairfield Inn and next door was Kalahari Resort, so we visited there. Great place for families and young children with its water park, water slides, game room, and miniature golf.

Baby Bunnies

There was a rabbit nest in our front yard. Every night, mother rabbit sat on the nest. These two hopped out this evening.

Another Diving Weekend

Boy, summer is going by fast and this is only the second time that I could get out to dive. I went back to Gilboa and here are more photos of my adventure.

First, here was a toolbox on one of the platforms. We opened it and there was nothing in it.
Nice cabin cruiser on the bottom
Another boat
Bridge to nowhere. Actually, a railroad tressle.
I found Cyril again. Three weeks ago he was in the cockpit of the plane. Now, he was on one of the boats. Little guy gets around. Unfortunately, he is starting to show some wear.
This is the collapsed water tower
Actually, a beautiful day Saturday

Gilboa Quarry Dive Weekend

I went to Gilboa Quarry Friday afternoon and found a couple of dive buddies there.

This is Candi, who is a Scuba Instructor for a dive shop in Michigan
This is her friend Sue, an attorney in Michigan. I had a nice dive with these two ladies on Friday afternoon. They are vacationing in Africa in eight days and were working on the underwater photography and videography skills.
Some of the underwater sights, which I have showed you before. Here is the Gilboa Gnome, Cyril, again. I saw him walking along the bottom over by the helicoptor and, sure enough, when we went back to the helicoptor, there he was. Little guy sure gets around. Last time I saw him was two years ago, wandering around in the underwater forest area.
A frustrated computer/technology user perhaps?
Big, big catfish
Saturday, I dove with John and Laura. John is a Snap-On Tool Salesman in Michigan and Laura is finishing up her Medical Transcription Certification. We made two pleasant dives together.
