When the well is dry, we know the worth of water.
BENJAMIN FRANKLIN, (1706-1790), Poor Richard's Almanac, 1746
A sense of urgency, as thick as the marine layer in June, overcame me long before the end of summer. Chalk it up to global warming but our ocean water, usually cold heated up in July, and with the warm temperatures brought the leopard sharks.
I am no longer content to stick a toe in and shiver. It's time to get in over my head and face my fears. It didn't hurt leopard sharks are harmless and toothless and I got in without a wet suit and a buddy.
It put a smile on my face when I spied my first undersea creature, but I wouldn't recommend smiling while snorkling.
