Ocean Ramsey can hold her breath for nearly six minutes –
while swimming with Great White sharks.
Incredible.
From her site: “Many people fear sharks and have unfortunately only seen them portrayed on TV and in films as mindless man-eating machines. In truth, sharks are intelligent, calculated and generally very cautious about approaching humans. More importantly, sharks play a vital role in maintaining a healthy ocean ecosystem. Many people are unaware that sharks are being over-fished to the point of extinction. As the Sengalese environmentalist Baba Dioum said, “In the end people will only protect what they love, and only love what they understand.” I hope that by sharing my experiences with sharks I might inspire others to take action and help protect these amazing creatures before it’s too late.”
Check out Water Inspired for spectacular underwater photos and more about shark conservation.

I was going through old photos this morning and came upon this image of Fiona when she was a baby and had to re-post. Such sweetness….
Computer issues are contributing to the lack of recent posts… apologies!
And the winner is….

I could watch this all day long. Sometimes, I don’t even watch the sea lions – I just gaze at the sunlight glinting off the water. After running around in a tank top yesterday for a few blissful midday hours, I woke this morning to a blizzard, several inches of new snow, zero visibility. What I’d give to get flipped off a dock by a sea lion.
