37 miles in rough seas just to dive at home

We floated away from Redondo Beach this morning in search of good dive conditions. The west side of Palos Verdes was pounding so we headed south. The south side was calmer, but dirty. We checked out several sites along the coast before deciding to get gas, since we had traveled all the way to Los Angeles Harbor without getting in the water.


After filling up, we battled wind chop and some six foot swells all the way back to King Harbor. While Merry washed the boat, I finished off a tank from yesterday "examining the bottom of the boat".

Cool, but...

that's growing on the bottom of your boat?!?!?

On the pilings at the marina. If it was on the boat, I'd have Merry work harder at her cleaning duties.

Still amazed at the variety of critters you find while examining the bottom of your boat. The sixth shot "of the solitary white / translucent anemone" is stunning. Beautiful series.
