Tood I'm starting to think you are in search of some hidden treasure since you are taking all these diving trips. Have fun and be safe.

awesome man congrats to your daughter! Cant wait to see more pics. Dang thats a big iguana, watch out for that tail.

Captian Don's is right next door...he knows where it is..I trying to make nice with him pouring rum runners for him and his parrot.

If I find it, sell my house and tell my wife I love her, and will miss her :)

Nice pictures.

thanks for the pics man! Keep em comin when you can and have a drink for us!

That seahorse needs a good scrub

Make sure to dive Karpata (north side of the island) and Angel City before you go... my two favorites (been to bonaire 5x)!

Awesome pics man. Looks like you are having loads of fun!!!

Hey Todd, I will take the Maze Brain on the bottom of the anchor!!! Maybe a sea mat or two... I will PM ya with my shipping info!!! ;)


Looks great man, I am jealous!!! Congrats to Tori too.. What a place for her first ocean dive. I bet she is all smiles!

Great Pics todd. I think you posted a pic of that anchor last year and there has been a whole lot of growth since then

Wish I was there Todd. Congrats to Tori.

Be safe and have fun.

Doug

Great pictures! You are having a blast. :)

I am back....anyone want to see some pictures? Any special requests?

I took 3,751 photos.....:)

Load em up! I would start with the pics of the frags you brought home. ;)

DEFINATELY want to see more pics. load them on your website

My website is a PITA to use....I will show a few here...maybe the rest in photobucket or someplace.

Here we go........nothing in any particular order...just shots I think are good, but have not had time to clean up or do anything with....so many to and look at...could take a few days

A CUBERA SANAPPER ...this guy was at least 4 feet long and well over a 100 pounds. Could not get close enough without spooking him.

If anyone feels the urge to try and touch these up, please do..I don't have photoshop or any really great picture fixer programs.

These are just RAW pictures.

Uploading to photbucket....takes a while...but I can go all day...Man I want to dive again...

Bonaire is the place for me. Wonder if they need any Bed Bath & Beyonds down there?
