Welcome.

At this site I wish to share an interest- THE UNDERWATER WORLD. Like many people of my generation, I was intrigued by the exploits of Lloyd Bridges in his portrayal of Mike Nelson in the TV show 'SEA HUNT.' The real-life adventures of that famous aquanaut-Jacques Yves Cousteau also stirred my interests and, while still in high school, I signed up for a basic course in SCUBA diving. I later studied Biology at Brock University in St. Catharines, Ontario in Canada and continue to be interested in the fascinating world beneath the surface of our water planet. Over the years, I have been involved in SCUBA instruction, Underwater Photography and Great Lakes Marine Heritage. These three underwater pursuits have allowed me to have some great adventures, meet some interesting people and make some wonderful friends.
