Default Well...Im finally back....

So i went on vacation...I notified Shaggy of that in a pm. Then I got back from vacation, and made a few posts. Then soon after that, my comp gets messed up, and we have to try to get it to start up from dos. We ended up having to replace the hard drive. We just got it up yesterday with a driver for the ethernet card. Just thought Id share my story with ya. Glad to be back at the forums!

Thanks. It was a pretty good vacation. i actually snorkeled off a key in the Florida Straits. There was tons of stuff to see. And the reef was living, the boat captain said it was the only living reef in North America. (don't quote that if I'm wrong)

Yah, they did fine. No deaths. One of my tanks didnt even have a cover...so the water evaporated kinda quick. Some one came over and added water though, so it was OK.

Not so much...i knew before my comp crashed that Shaggy was gonna get the skin up soon anyways. It still looks great though! Although I do miss that fish in the freshwater header from the original preview that shaggy gave us...

We still have a few other MIAs. I wonder what happened to them?
Welcome back, PacMan! The place just wasn't the same without ya!

Aren't the Keys just the BEST?

Yah, the keys are awesome. We actually stayed right near the southernmost point, and we got out of there like a week or something before dennis hit it. I snorkeled on the reef off of Looe key, its the best reef down there. Im not a big salt expert, but I know I identified a couple fish. I saw TONS of parrotfish, some huge tarpen, a couple barracuda (they don't look very friendly up close, and one smiled at me, in other words, he showed me his nice set of pearly whites), I beleive there were some tangs, a couple of angelfish, and what looked like a hogfish. There was even a nurse shark that swam below me at one point. I saw alot more fish, but I can't remember them at the moment. Definetely snorkel off this key if you're down there. Some divers came with us too.

Yeah, that does sound exciting!

Tee hee, I'm butting in here like I've known you forever. :P Well, welcome back!

I went snorkling in Honduras once, but I didn't see nearly that many things. I got to see a sea turtle, though.

But wow... didn't the nurse shark creep you out?
Ha, listen to me. *dojin* Of course nurse sharks wouldn't hurt a fly... well, maybe they would. But not a human!
