Time for another two week tour, this time through Florida and then on to Akumal, MX for some diving!

Other than that I am getting ready for some ice diving next weekend and then a trip to Mexico for some cave diving/exploration.


It's incredibly bloody fucking cold here right now.

Projects, I have so many...
Design new rebreather electronics based on a concept of 'minimal sufficiency'
Write seminar materials for in-water recompression treatments
Finish pin-up card game for iPhone
Organize dive expedition to Antarctica for 2013
Organize formal survey of a deep sink hole in New Mexico
Port gas blending software from iPhone to Android

I may need to hire some help.... or tap dance...

Wow, I've been in Colorado like, two whole weeks. I am actually working at software development again for a bit. End of November is the next journey, Florida again in January, then Mexico in February and Cayman next August. I guess when I die, the little jar of ashes will continue to travel.

Having just got back from 14 days on the road in California, training, diving and climbing, I am on my way to New Mexico for the selfsame.

This summer has been great activity wise and terrible economically. Oddly I am ok with not rolling in green the last couple of years because I have been diving, climbing and riding a ton. I have lots of time and value that tremendously at this point.

Spring has come to the mountains. We have some snow left on the ground...

Fiji was great. We stayed on a little island called Kadavu in a place with no telephone, internet, email etc. It abutted a small village and we were invited over one evening to a community gathering to...

Back from FL to shockingly cold weather. It was just below zero (F) last night and promises to be even colder today.
The diving in FL was great with several big cave dives.

It's a juggling act between the really positive things that are happening and the negative ones. The sum total may be zero, but I'll focus on the positive.

New Mexico was good, the drive to FL was long, but I got to see a lot of country I had not seen in a while, especially North Texas.

The day after I left NM, a friend...
