Slide Scanner

BeanMan · Jan 4, 2015

I just purchased a slide scanner and have been playing around with old slides. Here's an oldie of me with a Lobster I speared during the two years I lived on my 32' sloop Timshel. This one is off of Chub Cay in the Berry Islands of the Bahamas.

Way cool. Looks a little like those New Zealand crayfish. How'd it taste?

That's a bug sure enough. i hear you best shoot them with nothing smaller than a .38 because if they get on you, you're a goner. Get a couple more like that and might make up a fair dinner! ;-)

They tasted pretty good. They also traded well for goods like rum and diesel fuel, that I had a hard time affording.

I wasn't bald back then either.

Just imagine how big that thing would be if you had extended your arms LOL

Very cool Beanman! I can see the easy transition from spearfishing to bean farming in the beautiful coastal town of GJ!

What's the Deal with 'not' standing back behind them about 15' for the Pic?

Sad but true. I've talked of another boat when I retire but the Wife is scared silly of the ocean.

Brian, it was 30 years ago. I got old-er. Gout would suck, I like my microbrews. Might be why I'm a bit heavier.

2Lump, big problem was no Women in the Bahamas. We did learn to head to Nasshole for Spring Break though. That let some of the pressure off.

Sorry for my misspelling of Nassau

It was and is a hole.

It's written in the good Book that we'll never be asked to take more than we can. Sounds like a good plan, so bring it on!
