I grew up near Lake Mich., lived 40 miles away from it in college, then down to Ft. Polk La.for a bit, but now I live within walking distance.
My Mom always took us to the beach, and I used to love Seahunt.
I had a toy sub with frogman that was one of my fav. toys. I snorkeled with a round mask and a "j" type tube that had a ping-pong ball to stop the water from coming in.
After skiing out west for a few years my wife wanted a warm vacation.The year was1980, we went to Grand Cayman, I snorkeled off a glass bottom boat..........THAT WAS IT, all that stuff going on, all those colors, all that cool looking marine life poking around below me.
So, the influence of the lake was there even though it took me awhile to find my fav. sport!
