Green River Lake

We went scuba diving today at Green river lake. Here are some of the treasures that we recovered. The picture is of a boat bumper sitting in a camp style folding chair. This is one of three chairs that we saw in this cove. We also saw two sliding screen doors, a tire, a fire extinguisher, and two complete sheets of plywood. There were also tons of cans and bottles. I am pretty sure that houseboats tie up here and throw all the trash over the side.
We also used the metal detector to find the smaller stuff. The visibility was about four feet. Once we started digging around for whatever the metal detector was sounding on it dropped to zero. We were able to recover all this and a penny that isn't in the picture. The round objects are bottle caps and there are two lighters (one Zippo type and one disposable), and a D cell battery. I should have brought a bag down with me to put all the stuff in. I just didn't think about it. I will know next time. I also wanted to pick up the cans but we wouldn't have been able to even make a dent in the amount that was down there.
Taylor did better skiing today. She was able to get up almost every time and actually got to do a little skiing. She had a better attitude today and I think that was what made the difference. I think she actually WANTED to ski today.
Erin got up the first time and skied for quite a ways. I don't know how she does it but she says it is more comfortable to ski with her knees together like they are in this picture. She had her knees resting together most of the time.

Kerry and I skied a little too. We had a great time just sitting in the cove and playing in the water. I found some pool noodles at a dollar store. We have been looking for them since we bought the boat. I guess it is out of season for them now. They sure do make it nice to just float in the water. If you put one under your arms you can just float all day long.

Taylor almost caught a Bluegill with the fishing net. We didn't do any fishing today other than that. We had the poles but were too busy with all the other stuff.
