sarge in white-modus!

in or out?

I think 'in'

Hi everyone. It's a wet day today here in the uk, and I think that Martine is probably on her way home by now. Annie B.

Stan. This is Sarge. LOL.

Hello Everyone!!!
I am losing my mind with my computer today. I cannot save any of the captures as a jpg file - my computer insists on saving them at a bitmap file!!! Any suggestions anyone??? This just started yesterday!!!

Stan - Sarge is the sargent major that visits the wreck. We have not come up with names for some of the new fish that are now coming to visit us at this new location!!!

Mary. Try deleting the temporary internet files, that usually works for me.

I must say a big thanks to you Mary, and Jeff and Ron too, for the toothpaste tip. We cleaned all 3 masks and they look like new again. Annie B.

Good Morning Everyone! Here is the top of a fish....

just a short visit

Leigh - double

Torsten, we can always look at fish pics, even if they are the same one

Annie - thanks - I just spent 45 minutes cleaning things up and rebooting - now it is working like a charm!!!
SEE!!!
Torsten and Leigh Ann - nice capture of a back of a blue tang!!!

Annie - great news on the masks - they are not only clean - but minty fresh!!!LOL!!!

I always got a kick out how of the mask smelled after using the toothpaste!!!

Morning buddies! Birthday party was a hoot (I'll post pics on CC). Elvira arrived on time and we were up till one in the morning blabbing!

Looks like another typical day on Bonaire

Here's Sarge again. Glad you had a good time at the party Cynde. Mary, I use baby shampoo on my mask and I just love how it smells!

Hey Jake - What's up with the weather reporting - last thing recorded was on 8/25?!?!?

The software we use to capture the weather information occasionally just decides that it's had enough and just stops working. When someone notices that has happened (usually a couple of days), we go and kick in the butt and tell it to get to work again (in geek speak "we restart the process"). So, thanks for noticing and the software and been kicked! :-)

Jake

Jake - I knew I could rely on you to kick some software's butt!!!LOL!!! THANKS!!!

Good morning, everyone.

Beautiful rainy day here in Juneau, but I see the sun is, as usual, shining in Bon and people are enjoying the sunshine.


But where are the fishies??


In to work!

Hi gang. pfew, very busy week at work and today I had a day of, but spent it working on my new homepage (always takes longer than expected....)
And getting ready for next week, to be:

Only 4 days of work left, after the weekend. Tickets are in! Some shopping still left

look, it's sarge again!?!

@mary & annie
yep, I call everybody and everything Sarge since a few weeks, even the boss....try explaining why to him

so, don't mind if I keep on calling every fish sarge, or.... fish.

forget to attach...

he look: Sarge is posing for the cam!



well, stop making fun stan.....I know.

Stan - you are cracking me up!!!!

Though nice pose in in the 14:48 capture!!!

thought we had gotten you hooked on calling the fish sarge - because that was the one that we see the most of at this new location.

We have named several fish that used to visit the camera in the old location - you can find that here reefcam critter gallery

Some very nice pictures of the fish that used to visit us - now we have to settle with mainly sarge and yellow sanppers!!!LOL!!!

seen it now mary. Saw it before but didn't notice the names.
What in unbelievable shot of Pierre. I think it's my personal favourite for now, whauw!!

And, Tweety is just sweet.
Nice job!

and, while we are calling names:



it that Willy from Free Willy part 4 or is it the wreck????

Stan - that shot of Pierre gets posted at least 4 times a year - it is great. One of my favorites in is the school of blue tangs coming at the camera - like they are trying to figure out how the heck did this get here!!!

Unfortunately - colors do not show up as good in the new location - unless the fish are on top of the camera - due to the depth. the old cam was at about 10 feet - as compared with the current 60 feet.

I think the wreck should be named Willy - think you came up with something!!!LOL!!

that would be an honour. And, fun!
yep, 60ft isn't good for the colors....

Almost time for a small drink...

it's so incredible late for me to still be online and 'working'. Well. deadlines are a killer for your social life.
See you tormorrow all! (or later today..LOL)

Hahaha Sarge{er, Stan} I already guessed that you were calling everything in sight by that name, but was a little wary to mention it. Annie B.

Mary. I hope my MFM (minty fresh mask} doesn't scare the fish away.

One from the archives.

Hi Annie,
Liked the report about your meeting with Martine! Is she still in the UK??

Hi Annie!!! Divers!!!
Looks like he is about to lose his tank - I thought Kelly liked hers low - but this guys is almost off his back!!!LOL

Wow, Mary, indeed the tank hangs very low! Is your life back to normal again? I always think I need a vacation again, when back to work after a vacation...lol

Hi Diana!!! Life is back to normal - but I am planning my next diving trip. Going to be just my Hubby and myself!!!! Won't say where yet - but will let you guys know next week.

I know that you are more than ready to be on Bonaire!!!! Can't wait to see you in front of the cams!!!

Hi Diana. Martine returned home today.

After our meeting, she and JP travelled down south to Cornwall, and I think they really enjoyed it there. I am not sure whether we shall see her here tomorrow, as she has to return straight to work. Annie B.

Mary. I too thought that the tank looks very loose.

Mary, we definitely want to know. Sounds great, you and hubby!!

Poor, Martine, straight back to work

I have laminated a sign today!! And want to buy some funny stuff (no bathing caps, though, one might lose it... lol)

Hi folks, I am back
I just wanted to say I had a wonderful time in UK, and my best memory will be when I met Annie and Trev. I will make a report on CC, I promice. Annie is a wonderful person, and it seems I know her for years. Definitely my friend.
We had a nice ride all over Cornwall, we visited Stonehenge and so beautiful and legendary places. Let's rest now, unfortunately I am working tomorrow. Sigh !
Good night, I see you back tomorrow.

Hey! Its a party!

Welcome back Martine. I am so glad that you had a good time. We used to take the kids camping to all those places when they were small. It's very pretty down south. Too bad that you are back to work tomorrow already. Hope you get a good sleep tonight without the snoring. LOL. Annie B.

Hi Martine, glad you did have a nice time!

Time for some sleep!


Have a good night all!

Just popped by the webcams and felt Bonaire-sick looking at the sunset.... Boy! Do I need to be there right now

HEY!!! Smile Dude!!

You're being seen around the world!!

Hi Gang - or anyone still up

I have been really busy this past week - only had time to lurk in the morning and at night

Sure appreciate all of the great captures!!

I'll be away again all day tomorrow, and Sunday,
Monday, Tuesday.......

Having a hobby can be Heck!!
But at least work no longer interferes with hobbies!!

Have a great evening everyone, and I'll peek in again tomorrow night...... promise!!

Bill

Got the grandchildren tonight, so no wine with sunset for me! Hope it was a good one. Have to turn the computer back over to Ashlei who is the "Paint" master. She's really good at the computer for 6. (Mimi - that's me - taught her all about it) lol Anyway, they can only stay up till 9:00, and I figure I'll have them rubbing eyes after the hot tub, THEN I'll have my glass of wine.

Have a good night ya'll!
