After being sick all week and being house/bed-bound, we decided to go enjoy our beautiful weather. We went for a drive along the beaches and made a few stops to enjoy the atmosphere. The video below exhibits someone para-surfing in the gorgeous weather. There were a dozen or so folks para-surfing on Juno Beach. It felt good to get out of the house; however, the effects of the virus that has been plaguing me all week still makes me dizzy and nauseous.

Albino Oscar and Gold Severums 09/17/2010
I shot a quick video of my tank that has one Albino Tiger Oscar, two Gold Severums, and three Silver Dollars fish (not in the video). The fish are getting along well and my current arrangement of rock and PVC allow for hiding spots. As they grow, I will need to remove some of these items.

Pine Mountain 08/31/2010
We visited the F.D. Roosevelt State Park at Pine Mountain for a few hours. The weather was simply gorgeous. We hiked approximately 5-6 miles of one of the trails that included getting a bit lost; however, we found our way back via following the main road. Hiking the mountain roads quickly exhibited how out-of-shape that we all are! We will definitely visit this park again and spend the day exploring the trails and enjoying the beauty of the mountain and the surrounding area.

Ocmulgee Indian Mounds 08/29/2010

The mounds looks really lush this year, as Georgia has received a decent amount of rain this summer. We only hiked a small section of the preserve. The weather was kind as it was 80 with an overcast. The humidity was also low. Being that I am still toying with the AV settings on my camera to capture decent low lighting shots, only a handful of my shots are posted.

Big Pine Key 07/23/2010
This last weekend, I visited Hector in Big Pine Key, Florida. We had a Tropical Storm pass through South Florida on Friday morning. Luck for us, this storm was a dry one. The drive to the Keys was very nice, as there was very little rush hour traffic. Due to the clouds that were part of the Tropical Storm, the sunsets were not as spectacular as they usually are. Overall, I had a great time, as always. I captured all pictures and videos with my iPhone 4.
The picture above is from was taken at Big Coppitt Key. The view is fabulous.
The video above is the sunset captured at Islamorada.
The video above is the sunset captured at Conch Key.
The video above is the amazing view that I captured at Big Coppitt Key.

Bridge Jumping
Today, David, Hector, Javier, Allan, and myself went to Sugarloaf Key to bridge jump. We went early to beat the heat and the local crowd. The water was still cool and the current created a a lazy river. This was an awesome long Birthday weekend that was filled with snorkeling and laughing with awesome friends!
