The trip unfortunately was changed from San Miguel to Santa Rosa and Santa Cruz
due to rough conditions, but the group was treated to the best diving
conditions possible, great meals prepared by Debra, and lots of opportunities
for all to enjoy the time together. Walter, Linda, Michael and Irene were
equipped with film, digital cameras and video cameras to capture their memories
of the trip, but most aboard brought their trusty spear guns to bring home the
meat. Irene brought her nephew, Robbie, and an extra camera setup in hopes of
giving him the opportunity to become an underwater photographer. After the
first dive, Walter mentioned to me that since Robbie was a sixteen year old
boy, he probably would enjoy killing the fish instead of taking their picture.
I suddenly remembered him going to play paintball and the many hours on the
computer playing the army video games. I talked to Jeff and asked him if he
would consider taking Robbie with him on a dive just to watch him. That was the
last time I got to dive with Robbie. Lloyd gave him some pointers and a gun and
he came back from his first dive with his first kill happy as a lark. It never
occurred to me that I had a Killer with me, but that's exactly what I learned
on this trip. He had a great time and I now know what I will be buying for his
Christmas present. End I don't have any digitals that I think are that good,
but Michael has the fringe head blenny and about twelve other shots that I
thought would be great to put on the website.
