Since I just sent you the December newsletter, I'll try to keep this brief. But we also all know that brevity isn't my strong suit . . .
WHAT A DIFFERENCE A FEW DAYS MAKE - Two views
of Vets Park at Redondo. On the left is Wednesday morning. On the right
is Sunday afternoon. Drastic change.

ORANGE COUNTY BEACH CLOSURES - Just a reminder that some of the
OC beaches are still closed due to that sewage spill we detailed in the
newsletter. Go to
www.ocbeachinfo.com for the latest.
SHARKS ARE EVEN MORE BAD-ASS THAN YOU THINK - Did you realize that sharks outlived the dinosaurs? They're quite fascinating creatures when you put any fear aside. (One reason we love diving with them in Guadalupe.) Laurie Kasper forwarded an interesting article that details some of the adaptations sharks have made to survive for so long: SHARK EVOLUTION.
BE FREE LITTLE ABALONE - A team of divers from the Aquarium of the Pacific, along with divers from other institutions, recently participated in a mass ocean release of white abalone. It's an attempt to help the species recover and caps an 11-year multi-agency project. You can read more about it here: WHITE ABALONE RELEASED.
OFF TO CABO PULMO WEDNESDAY - I'm not sure if I'll have an Internet connection on the boat or not but if I do, you'll not only get next week's TWARS from Cabo Pulmo, but I'll post a Top 10 Pix each day as well. Cabo Pulmo is a UNESCO World Heritage site and a wonderfully successful and productive Marine Protected Area so we're very excited about what we might see. (And if I don't have a connection, you'll get the week off from me.) We'll be diving CP Friday-Monday so keep your eyes peeled to our FaceBook and SmugMug pages.
And that'll do it for now. Have a great week and let's go diving soon!!!
- Ken
