Abyss

Diving session off to a slow start.

Guernsey can be blessed, some of the time, with sunny warm weather. Lately, I feel like the weather has a vendetta against outdoor loving weekend warriors. Sunny and warm on the weekdays when people are stuck indoors at work, cold and wet on the weekend throwing a wet sponge on plans. I once tried to strike a deal with Mother Nature and asked for rainy weekdays and dry sunny weekends. In exchange, I would plant a tree. That deal was not accepted. Since we have had many weekends with rough water conditions at sea,
 Today started of as normal  some fair or sunny periods at first, otherwise rather cloudy with scattered showers. Southwest F4-5 with a crappy weather forecast for the weekend.  So much for weather reports. By 4 o'clock the wind had dropped off to nothing the sun started to shine so a spot of diving was in order out of town.





 
I WENT SCALLOPING!


Who can forget those scenes from the movie The Abyss featuring glowing beings that eventually saved the lives of everyone on the deep sea rig? If you’re a diver, those scenes have probably stuck with you, perhaps even inspiring hope that one day you’ll make such a discovery. Well, far be it from me to burst your bubble, but I only found more scallops in the Abyss out on the east coast tonight, maybe next time...
