One More SCUBA picture


Hey guys, this is a photograph I took this weekend while diving the Tracey shipwreck off the coast of Ft. Lauderdale. This ship was sunk in the early 1980's when it was seized from a drug smuggler. No, there are no more drugs left in it, but the fish around it act awfully strange and seem to have the constant munchies. I digress. Anyway, the picture shows the platform on the back of the ship. There is a lot of sea life around the area, but thankfully no big boys (i.e. Jaws) made an appearance. Hope you enjoy it. Take care. -J

Chaney Shooting Re-enactment

A couple of friends of mine started up a random blog. The Daily Show had a very accurate re-enactment of the Dick Chaney hunting accident. Be sure to check it out, and feel free to check out the rest of our blog.

Well, I finally made it into the ocean with a SCUBA tank. It was easier than I thought, and much prettier than the swimming pool. We went out on Saturday and Sunday and did two dives each day. On the second day we went all the way down to 70 feet! It was actually very relaxed and a lot of fun. We went to a shipwreck called the Hog Heaven, which is an upside down barge that sank in the ealy 1980's - righ around the time that Wham! was peaking the charts. The picture I am sharing in this post is from that dive at the Hog Heaven. I'm not sure who named this shipwreck, but I'm guessing it was someone from North Florida.

SCUBA Lessons


Hi y'all. As some of you may know, I recently began taking SCUBA lessons in Ft. Loderdél. I have not gone in the ocean just yet, but I did go in a swimming pool (not as exciting I predict). I'm told we're going in the ocean this weekend. However, I wanted to share this photograph of me underwater. Unfortunately muff diving is not part of the curriculum.
