As usual, I have been quite busy lately. I am working on getting the Mozart Concerto in G ready as well as the Beethoven Romance in F. For the last week, I have been working on these pieces as well as etudes and scales.

I got back from Cozumel, Mexico about a week ago. My wife and I were there for a week. We went on 11 dives that were about an hour long. The deepest we went was about 100 feet, but most of the dives were in the 45 to 60 foot range. The water was crystal clear and the water temp was from 75 to 80 F. Some of the most notable marine life we saw were 3 reef sharks that were about 6 feet long. A huge, mean looking Barracuda and a large lobster. We saw a large variety of marine life, and my wife, being a photographer, took at least 100 underwater pictures. An Italian friend of ours, took an underwater video of us on two of the dives and she did a wonderful job. We have a copy of it on DVD.

The last night we were there, I had a few rum and cokes, (I rarely drink). Then the bar tender at the pool bar, made a round of Comokazis for everyone. I was drawn by the color of the drink, which was a light blue color. So, I decided what the heck, I'll have one. (bad move) About a half hour later, I was ripped. I later found out that the drink had a shot of tequila, a shot of vodka, and a shot of triple sec, plus whatever that blue stuff is. I can't remember the name. My wife said that I was getting fairly obnoxious, and that night still seems pretty hazy to me. So we went back to our room, and I went to bed. Oh, well, nobody's perfect.

I love diving in Cozumel, and can't wait to go back there in November.
