Connie and I went to Ventura to spend two days diving for Reef Check off the Explorer. We were able to complete the surveys and still have time for a couple of "fun" dives. We left to go up after Connie's square dance and got there about midnight. We spent the night on the boat both Friday and Sat. When we got back Sat. afternoon we headed over to see Tim and Sally Jo. It had been three years ago in Maui since we saw them. We had a great time. They have a beautiful family and it was fun to visit.
Sunday we were back out trying to find sites to dive that didn't have a ripping current going on. We found it at Landing Cove. This is just right of the landing for the ferry that brings visitors to Anacapa. Ron and Martha, this is where we climbed the stairs from the boat.
We ended up doing three dives again on Sunday, but only one survey. The other two were for fun. It was interesting that both Connie and I felt lost without our survey gear. It was like, "where do we go". We did finally figure it out and had a couple of good dives.
I included the picture of the boat, even though that is neither Connie or I jumping in, because it gives real meaning to the phrase, "giant stride".
