Patrick, Roger, Karen, let's go. We want to see some ink here. Where the hell are you? If you are diving, can you at least have the courtesy to send up some bubble signals or something. Right is right.

Keep it up and you will be suspended from Bonaire for a year. As of today, when finished diving, you are to report to Belmar at 4:30 PM and get in the pool with an Amstel. The administration is not going to penalize you if it is an Amstel Bright. Failure to show up for this detention will result in having to be there tomorrow at 4:15 with two Amstels. Are we clear? Karen, we shall allow you to drink Chardonay if that is more to your choosing. Roger, you will stick to the original punishment. Just make sure you have plastic cups, as I don't want my feet cut on August 5th.

I ended up taking the day off because I was so upset that Patrick did not check in.


$10.00 Fine!

You know, I raised four kids and always made them check in Jerry. They always did. Now, all these years post facto, I have to go through this anguish again. There is going to be hell to pay. That is all I am saying on this matter. And for God's sake, look at what you are doing to Jerry. Have some compassion people.

Tara, you would never be this inconsiderate. You always check in while on Bonaire, with pictures too I might add. LOL

Yeah at the very least post a postcard. Not trying to forgive nor forget this umbrage but I did hear tell of two factors, sick cameras and a new SO, the former can slow you down, the later can grind you to a stop.

Yeah, I may be getting a F in the Trip Report class but I think I rocked an A in Bring Your BT Friends on Vacation class :-) :-)

I actually did put a tack on my 2nd grade teachers chair..... is there a rosary or some other penance I can do.... to finally rid me of my guilt

Elaine, I guess we all ran out of steam this past weekend. I've been slacking because I've been a bit busy with work today.
Patrick must be having lots of fun. I hear that he has a student that is doing their check out dives. I may have that all wrong, but I think school is in session. I want to go to that school.

OK all, try to remember this is a working dive trip for Patrick:-)

We saw him and two of his group coming out from a dive this AM. He was all smiles as usual. One of his group, a very nice woman, is very new to diving and had trouble with a foggy new mask (couldn't see anything) and difficulties with her bouyancy control, and Patrick's bc broke, he was heading out to have it repaired.

Then this afternoon when we went back to have our rented camera charged and downloaded they were getting ready to give the new person a bouyancy lesson. And tonight he is taking a few of them on a night dive.

I am sure he is missing all your happy comments :-)

Another great day of diving, and tonight Teddy and I are going to Something Special with Lutty for a night dive. Yayyyy !!

Our unhappy comments for the big guy will be waiting for him when he regains his senses and gets back to us.

We understand work and new divers!

Hey Patrick! I could use a private bouyancy lesson! I know I always go in over weighted because I'm afraid I won't get down.... and then I'm always adding air to stay even...... But the extra weight adds to the exercise..... so that's good! (so i tell myself)

Gail, just keep practising. It will come to you. No worries.
What could help is, when you descend first kick your self high out of the water and then blow out all your air. You will sink like a brick. Believe me. :-))))))))))))))))))))))))))
