Ah, but scroll up, and you will see that I just took Anna at her word — she was the one who all-capsed it in the first place.

I’m sorry, Sarah, but VERY COLD water is solid on top. I think some crazy people actually dive underneath it. (I for one am way too wimpy to want to dive in California waters, much less Minnesota. I think you guys are way macho.)

We went down to 90 feet with the housing. It was pretty cold there, plus the wind was ripping past Casino Point. I can’t believe she had ice cream, I was drinking coffee.

I saw the biggest Giant Kelpfish I’d ever seen, about 12″, and it’s mate. Oh, and we discovered the wreck of a rowboat. But at least we know the camera enclosure doesn’t leak, and we should hopefully get a few pics of Farnsworth Banks with any luck.

You also made me have to eat ice cream.

You live where you do because you have good jobs by VERY COLD water. (You asked.)

Brrrr…. makes me shiver just remembering it. What was the actual temp?

You were freezing, so you decided to have some ice cream?! LOL. You crack me up. I was ready to imagine you curled up with a giant hot cocoa or steaming caffeine-laden beverage! That’s alright, you can laugh at me when I complain about 80 degree weather on the big island.

… or, you could move to Hawaii …

Why not just test the housing in the pool? How deep did you go?
