Diving With Lisa
Here's two of the five sharks we had swimming around us for a while.
I wish they'd pose better for pictures.

Lisa's First Trip To The Stripper Pole
It's an I-beam from the old pier that slipped off a barge and impaled the reef below. It rises from 105ft up to 70ft.

Found That Confounded Bridge
I've heard stories since I've been here about the Suffolk Maid and her hard times on St Croix. She eventually ended up scuttled in Butler Bay and is one of the shallow wreck sites for divers.
Part of the story involves her being beached by a hurricane and having the bridge cut off of the decks so the engines could be pulled out to lighten her up to pull the Suffolk Maid off of the shore.
I've heard that the cut-off bridge section was also dumped in Butler Bay, but out deeper than the other wrecks there. Some friends of mine went and found a piece without me, but I finally got a chance to see for myself today.
While doing our decompression stops Christi and I drifted over the Suffolk Maid's hull.
Now, where's the rest of it?

Interdimensionality
While I was watching dolphins from the boat Saturday afternoon,
I also managed to be contestant #3 in the beard contest.
and won third place.

Dolphin Day
I got to free dive with dolphins!
I cleaned up some video that another diver shot-
Then I was captain of the boat for the afternoon and found the dolphins again. This time I had to watch from above,
which wasn't so bad either.
Bonus footage!

Whale Shark
Here's a freeze from an iPhone video the captain shot as it passed the boat.
Later it came by me and the divers at 60 ft, turned around, and swam over my head so close that I reached up and scratched its belly.
A dream come true!
