Birthday Weekend Madness 4/10-11/2010

Well, I'm not much of a birthday person since mine usually end up with a lot of people bailing and never telling me, but this year was different. I actually had the best birthday that I can recall!

Saturday started out bright and early in the morning at Redondo Beach in Des Moines/Federal Way. The surf was pretty rough for the entry and exit, and it only got worst on each consecutive dive. The plan was 3 dives at Redondo followed by dinner with friends and family, followed by a movie.

Dive one, Sonia guided us to all the small boats and we saw several Giant Pacific Octos. The dive was about an 80' max depth

The second dive we found what was left of the VW bug, the buoyancy course and the dome/ swing set with the hanging barbies... An average of depth of 45 FSW.

The third dive we went down to the bottle field past the small statue where Sonia found some hopefully animal bones... Max depth of around 90 FSW

Than there was dinner and a movie. On Sunday Sonia, Kyle and I did 2 - 1 hour long dives at Les Davis in Tacoma. I don't have any dive graphs this time because my computer cracked out and started constantly beeping at me... So it is on its way to Texas to get fixed by Cochran...
