    Could someone address the dark water? Is that algae or silt or what?

    My condolences to the Borger family and their friends as well as Mr. Borger's fellow divers on Saturday and crew of the dive boat. Our thoughts are with all of them.
    Thank you to the sherriff's divers for their efforts so far. I hope they stay safe as they continue the recovery.

    Did anyone on the board here know Tim? If you have contact with the family please keep us posted on date, time and place of services.
    It's not a good day if you don't get wet.
    Remember, most people die surprised.
