Saturday White Star Quarry Diving
Today was a big day for me. It was one year ago today that I had my hernia surgery. I celebrated by making three dives today on a gorgeous sunny hot day and had fun and a great time. Matt was my dive buddy and we had three enjoyable dives.
This is a former limestone quarry and here is the "crusher" which turned big ones into little ones.
Gilboa has its gnome and White Star has Frosty the Snowman
First time that I saw the police car
This was neat. It was a pvc pipe scuba diver. You can put air from your regulator in his tank and it will come out through his regulator.
Here is the Frito Lay delivery truck
And, in case you are curious about what if you have to go to the bathroom underwater . . .

White Star Strange Underwater Cemetery
I had been diving for years have seen many spectacular and extraordinary sights. This was probably the strangest. We came up on an underwater cemetery. I did not know what was going on, so my initial reaction was one of reverence for the graves as I did not know if people were actually buried there. Turns out, there is no one buried there. These are flawed grave stones that were rejected, donated, and put in several months ago.
This was the most unusual one. There is a Harley Davidson Motorcycle at the bottom and a Cadillac logo in the center. The mistake was, the Harley logo was supposed to be in the middle.

Put In Bay Saturday
Saturday, we got up early to catch the ferry to Put In Bay.
We went past Cedar Point Amazement Park
When you arrive, you rent a golf cart for transportation. Top speed was, maybe, 15 mph. I was flooring it most of the day. There are car and trucks on the island, but not many. However, these little golf carts are everywhere. The weather was superb, too. Could not have been any better.
The Island is two miles by four miles and you see this Victory Monument from everywhere on the Island
Most of the day was spent just touring in our golf cart and sight seeing
There are quaint little shops everywhere. The place reminded us of Key West and they refer to this as the Key West of the North. There is a main street like Duval Street with only restaurants and bars. You will see our drive-down on the video.
Michael Jackson sighting
Time to head home. End of a long adventurous day.
