Let me throw in my version of the trip report!!!

I showed up Sat afternoon just in time for the scavenger hunt - and with a little NUDGE from the Wench - I was geared up and had Flatwood's tank on and jumping into "cool" water to hunt for GOLF BALLS!!!!! I have to admit - it was fun!! I actually found four - yes four - balls - JEALOUSY IS SO NOT PRETTY FIN GRABBER!!!!! :taz:

The bar-b-que was fabulous as always - the costume contest was great and Deb is right - to see Sushi man and hear Kamala go "okay - let's eat" was quite entertaining!! I even stayed up late to see what actually went on in the hot tub AND WE GOT TOSSED OUT!!!! Due to the possibility of bad weather coming in - so............we joined Calvin and his group for some "fruit punch" - it was a fun night.

NOW........the theme of the morning on Sunday was "tickle the wench" - and I will leave it at that - The pumpkin race was great - and I am sure there will be many photos to come - ONE of the teams made the top of the pumpkin look like the state of Texas - PURE LUCK.

The prizes that ScubaToys donated were fabulous. I am sporting a new dive light (from one of my balls!!!!) and there were sets of fins, a reg, slap straps, bags, tees - and on and on.

It was fun to meet everyone too - we had a lot of laughs.

I should have my photos by this weekend - OH OH OH - I have a great one of DEB!!!!!! (don't even go there Deb - remember MY bottom is posted on the internet) :D

Can't wait to see what stories the Christmas parties bring!!!

Did we get that "galley wench" to join? Can not get the jacuzzi thing out of my mind! Was that why Calvin closed the jacuzzi! If it was I need to talk to him about that.
