Labor Day weekend: labor of love

Post by Big Bend Brian »

Just a fun post……..the family managed to sneak in one more short Florida Keys trip before school, soccer, and Boy Scouts begin to take all our attention. Over the Labor Day weekend we dragged our small 19 foot Plan B to Key Largo to play with some lobster and yellowtails. With perfect weather we had a lot of fun snorkeling for lobsters, fishing, a couple of SCUBA dives (took lobster gear), golf cart driving (kids), and as an introduction to a future SCUBA course I did a Hookah dive with my 14 year Casey for 25 minutes to 21 feet. Fun trip!!

We Floridians have the life!!

Pictures tell the story:
