This is probably going to be one of the easiest posts that I have made.

Brother Paul, aka Professional Debriefer Paul, made an excellent video of this event; I did the underwater portion of the video and ended up loaning him my camera to transfer the footage – my upload speed is too slow and we wanted the video done within a day.

I carved a small pumpkin and then proceeded to find other groups of divers making their masterpieces for the exciting video footage.

The view of Shaw’s Cove from the water.

Going through the arch at Shaws Cove.

Evidence of poachers or a group molting.

I have no idea wahat these are – sea macaroni?

I think this is a sculpin?

Hmm? Looks like a bunch of popped zits.

Lots of little arches and interesting reef structure.

A half buried abandoned lobster trap.

We made it ashore right on target after a slight swim against a rip tide; we gave a few autographs to some hot chicks in bikinis – they love SCUBA divers!

We had to debrief with tap water, as drinking in public is illegal.

Stunning video footage to follow soon!
