Working Vacation?

Working Vacation? I was thinking back to a "vacation" trip my wife and I enjoyed in Hawaii not long ago. We would wake up early at like 4:30 am, brew some awesome Kona Coffee and get our work done with our teams so we could get out and play in the sand and surf!  Good times...  Some Cool Tools I use on my working vacations:  - https://www.mindmeister.com  - https://www.smartsheet.com/product  - https://www.linkedin.com Productivity on the road!!!

Diving the Big Island? Why Your Maunakea Day Has to Come First

By
A honu in the shallows along the Big Island's lava-rock coast. Honu are protected, and NOAA recommends staying at least 10 feet away. It's the perfect Big Island day on paper. A two-tank morning dive off the Kona coast, lunch in town, then a drive up Maunakea to watch the sunset above the clouds. Plenty of visitors plan exactly that. It's also one of the riskiest things a diver can do on this island. The same nitrogen that makes airlines ask divers to wait before flying home doesn't care whether you go up in a plane or a rental car. And on the Big Island, almost every road off the coast goes up. Here's what divers should know before they build the itinerary, and the easy fix: flip the order. Why altitude matters after a dive Every dive loads your body with extra nitrogen.

Bahama's Dive Trip

By Todd Carter
Returning from a GREAT SCUBA Dive Week. Started off a bit rough with a Tropic Storm blowing through the first three days.  Once the storm cleared and we could get out on the water, it was some of the BEST diving.  Getting in was easy!  One giant stride.  Getting OUT was crazy.  The boat was pitching with each passing wave.  It was a matter of timing, jumping onto the boat ladder with full gear and hanging on! A few short steps up to the swim step and WHEW! another great dive... Underwater photos courtesy of Melinda Riger, Grand Bahama, 2012.
