I've always loved the water... from gliding below in the peaceful quiet until aching lungs drive gasping breaths to SCUBA diving around coral reefs teeming with life (sadly disappearing in so many places now), on World War II shipwrecks deep in the Atlantic shipping lanes, and in limestone caves with stalactites frozen in time. I love swimming, paddling, sailing, and motoring above and below the surface of our seas ... and connecting with the encompassing life.
