Some of the tiny creatures we saw in the Banda Sea- I love being able to pick a spot, stop, and see so much life around me. 🐙🦑🤿🐟🪸

It was so much fun to meet sea creatures like sea snakes/kraits who don't live in the Atlantic/Caribbean, different types of hard and soft corals that are thriving despite VERY warm water temps and to see familiar fish shapes in new flavors and color patterns. 🐙🦑🤿🐟

More from Ambon, a ribbon eel, a pair of sea slugs, a super sneaky stonefish and a lionfish

The Banda Sea brought the goods on the very first dive!

Flamboyant and reef cuttlefish and morays in new(to me) colors. Wow.

We have been spoiled with amazing offshore dives this year. Warm water even at depth with great visibility! 🦑🤿🐟

I adore these conger eels( or American eels? There's been debate!)

They're so googly-eyed and the wreck we dove was full of them!

Cross post from my professional life, because I like the story:

Sometime in 2008 or so, I was doing work at a NASA data center at the Langley Air Force Base in Hampton Roads, Virginia. While there, I met a person who remains one of my all-time consulting heros and idols.

Been dealing with dental runaround healthcare nightmare this week.

Dentist/oral surgeon number 3 is finally just pulling this tooth after 2 nights of no sleep.

Never been so happy to be in the dental chair

Some Ling fish and some spotted skates seen on a wreck dive off the coast of NJ

I've never seen skates in the water before and you can hear me "ooo!" through my regulator

Incredible photo, I thought this was a painting at first

These dazzling polychaetes spend most their life in the mud before undergoing a sexual transformation, limbs becoming gossamer & wing-like, and leaving the mud to spend the rest of their life dancing around the reflection of the full moon, spawning. What a life! 🦑🐙🐡

Delicious BBQ = Pig on the sign
Incredible BBQ = Pig in clothes, or at least a hat and sunglasses
Amazeballs BBQ = Pig in clothes wielding cooking utensils
Corollary: The more human-like pig on the sign, the better. So, if someone's got a place serving wonder bread and the mascot is filing taxes and chain-smoking? You're going to meet the gods.

Within the last year: Dropped a tank on my pinky and fractured it

Within the last week: in PT for my back and strained a tendon in my elbow

Yesterday: using a lighter to seal the end of Paracord and burned my hand with molten plastic
What's the stupidest way you've hurt yourself?

Oh I'm so glad you asked! I knocked myself out with a frozen bag of omelettes.

A few more from Saturday in NJ. This was one of the larger hermit crabs, there were some super macro ones that wouldnt stay still enough to grab focus!

Nice to get back in local waters today in Point Pleasant Beach, NJ.
There were so many horseshoe crabs including a big momma tangled in some fishing line who I assumed was dead.
I decided to cut her free anyway and she started moving! Felt so good letting her go!

If the players weren't wearing numbers on their jerseys, these players name labels might make sense.

But then they cover play.

It's bad.
