Yes, lol the secrets out. I think it had something to do with spending way too much time in lakes, ponds, rivers, and streams as a youngster when everyone else was doing normal childhood things.
On another note. I've been snorkeling in a few tropical places. And to me it doesn't compare to the times I've recently spent snorkeling in the rivers, lakes, ponds, and streams I grew up around. Too bad it took me 27 years to discover it. For anyone that hasn't tried it. Do what I did. Pick up a cheap snorkeling set at walmart during the summer and find a nice clear place to enjoy. A few days later you'll be shopping for lots better equipment like I did. It's the best to see the fish you've caught and watched from above in thier own world uninhibited by glass walls. Gets a little shady though when those pesky water snakes mistake that sunburned back for a rock, or when you turn over a rock and one comes straight at your mask. Also if you do try it and it's rocky get a set of diving gloves. Your fingers will thank you.
