Do you scuba Friday? I tried to learn that once but couldn't take the claustrophobic/I can't breath feeling. Now snorkeling...that's fun! The Great Barrier Reef would be amazing.

I don't any more, but used to- a lot. Absolutely loved it and once you get used to the equipment (and some regulators/mouthpieces are definitely better than others) it is so relaxing. I hated for the dives to end!

Snorkeling now seems like so much more work to me - and you can only stay down for a minute at a time, instead of half an hour!

There just seems to be something wrong with strapping lead weights on and jumping in the water, lol. I know it was all in my head, just couldn't make it over that hurdle to enjoy it.

Of course, here in WY, there isn't much of an opportunity to snorkel or scuba.

Unless we all barge in on Teila! Road trip anyone?

Not much opportunity here in NM either, except for the Blue Hole. http://santarosabluehole.com/

I vote for the road trip!

I think Teila would enjoy a good surprise (shock) visit, don't forget to bring her a nice hostess gift.

Tee hee Scott you did not sound brain dead!

Blooie thank you for tip, I will try that! Knee is much better today and Mr Walking Stick is only being called on for long distance treks; otherwise he is making friends with the umbrellas at the front door

Friday I actually got my dive certificate many years ago but being a bit of a scaredy cat and not being able to stop thinking about the many ways I could die, I have not been diving for many, many years.

Hold off on the road trip!! No point coming now, wait until we have moved

PS. Suggestion for hostess gift …. SNOW!

Talking of gifts ... The person who lived here before us had some sort of rock fettish
hmm.png
There are small rocks everywhere! They manage to work themselves onto paths and hubby keeps standing on them. I have lost count of the number of times he has been cursing and swearing about those darn rocks.

He actually mentioned the other day that he is not going to miss the rocks. As he will probably be moving before me and I will be sending him boxes from here; one of the boxes is going to contain a jar filled with some of the rocks .. just a shame I will not be there to see his face LOL
