Gwen, John's wife, was diving out at Molokini Crater on thursday morning and reports that the sick/possibly dying Chocolate Margin nudibranch was no where to be found. The remaining spongemate was in a hiding spot on the small rock and it took her a minute to find it. She reports no strange behavoir so far, but we'll keep you posted.
On a different note, for the first time in almost three years Mike, Dan, and I all got to go out and have fun together at the same time during the daylight hours! We jumped at the oportunaty and after doing a bit of work in the mroning, we packed up the dirtbikes and took a trip to a secret track. (Yes, John's is still a broken mess of parts on the floor, but luckily Mike and Dan share.) Gwen and Jamie, Mike's wife, came along too. We had a blast. Dan suffered the only injury of the day with a sprained ankle. He limped around all afternoon and still walks with a funny limp today. It was great to see him in a bit of pain for a change because Mike and I have been doing most of the wiping out lately. Now we don't have to hear how old and weak we are anymore!
Gwen and I have been working on some mountain biking as well. We've been hitting some trails upcountry and having a blast. The higher elevation brings vegitation a lot like back on the east coast, so we feel a bit at home. We're hoping that all five of us will get to go biking up there together someday soon, we'll try and post some pictures of the event.
Thanks for tuning in, it's fun to hear all of your comments each day. (Mom, I am glad you finally figured out how to read this...)
Aloha,
John
