When I woke up today the weather was very dicey. The wind was blowing real good and there were some flashes of rain every once in a while. Mike and I went to the store early this morning to get our supplies for cooking tonight. We had to make more cages for the Russ and Sally's coral experiment so I spent the entire day working on that. It was my first time today that I had to break out my jacket to keep myself dry in the rain. Normally rain doesn't matter to our operation at all since we go in the water but there was no diving for me today so I tried to keep dry. As the day went on the weather improved slightly but that really didn't matter much since the task was mostly cage building. We had quite an assembly line going for a good portion of the day. Yesterday Russ helped make cages and today Sally did also. I found that to be cool how they didn't consider a task like that under them especially after the many years they have been coming here. I think it's just a testament to their great personalities and work ethics as well as respect for their workers like me. When the day was over we cleaned up and I got ready to cook for the night. We got frozen burgers and fries at the store this morning to make an all American meal but unfortunately there was not enough baking room to make all the fries. They turned out to be more like hash browns than french fries which was funny. This certainly wasn't one of my greatest cooking endeavors. After dinner I skyped with Erica to work on our trip some more and looked at some possible places where I could work as a dive master after this trip. I need to talk to Keith about it but it's possible that I could go work at a resort somewhere to make some money. Anyways I'm falling asleep at the computer so I better go to bed. Until later.
