We enjoyed the BTers gathering on 7/27, and getting to meet all of you there and put faces with names. We did make our 1000th dive the next day at the 2nd reef out from Angel City - and it was great as all Bonaire dives are. Made 6 more before we had to leave for Austin. Just got a surprise when I looked at the Webcam postings and found us captured just after noon on 7/23. In the post by Dilly Dillbread, Glenn is on shore putting his fins on and I had already been carried away by the current. In his "Diver has arrived" shot, we are trying to hide from the current while viewing the green moray in the wreck. In the next post we are on our way up past the reefcam - I hadn't realized how bright my pink snorkel is!
Till next year...
Iris & Glenn Scott

I had the privilege of meeting both Iris and Glenn at the BT dinner at Gibis last week, they are just charming people... they were looking for the frogfish at Front Porch... hope they found them!

1000 dives is nothing to sneeze at.... lol...

Iris and Glenn,

Congratulations! We also got to meet these wonderful people the night before their 1000th dive! We hope to see you guys on Bonaire again! We just got home this past Thursday :-( but hope to be back to stay soon!

As time was running short, we didn't get to look for the frogfish at Front Porch, but we did find two frogfish - an adult with a baby - at the Cliff. We had found the two seahorses at Front Porch by the tug the first time we dived there. That large yellow seahorse looks like the same one that has been by the tug for several years.
So after finding the frogfish at the Cliff, we decided to not search for anything else, just enjoy what came by, and we were rewarded with a large octopus sitting on top of a coral head, and eagle rays gliding by, in addition to all the other wonderful usual fish. Yes, we will be back. See you next July.
We're packing our motorhome now to leave tomorrow for Oregon and Washington.
Iris
