We just ,moved again - still in a one-bedroom, but it is more spacious.  The view is terrific.  It is very windy! I love it.   Here are some picts.  Sam took the one of the sunrise, and I took the ones in the day.

Whoa!!!!!!!

Absolutely, totally amazing!

When I decided to go to graduate school for marine science I had some wild idea that I might someday have a job in a place like that.  Well it didn't quite work out that way - I ended up studying the muddy Chesapeake Bay estuary!  Where I dive I can usually see about 5 feet, if I'm lucky.

One time I went to the Cayman Island's on a dive trip vacation. I was completely panicked when I got in the water.. Why? Imagine this -- I could see forever.  All I kept thinking was, sh@t!!!!, if a shark comes for me I will see it from a mile away!

Bajanne, you live in a tropical paradise.

We'll all be there next weekend  :)!!!!!!!!

i am not a photo expert, but I use Microsoft Office Picture Manager.  I find that is very user friendly.  I just click on Edit Picture, then Crop if it needs cropping, then Resize and I usually make the picture between 25% and 40%, depending on the original size of the picture.  then I resave the picture with a different name (so I still keep the original, in case...)
