Some people know the story and some don't.  In the early part of summer my husband decided to take up scuba diving.  As a safety precaution his doctor decided to order a nuclear stress test.  At the time we didn't know the severity of the test but later the scuba diving actually saved his life.  The test revealed a blockage and a heart cath was performed.  During the heart cath we discovered my husband (age 38) had a heart attack three years ago.  He had one artery blocked at 90% and a stent was put in it.  Another artery was 40%.  After resting for several weeks the doctor gave him the okay to scuba dive again.  So here are the pictures.

It was a nice,  calm day in the Gulf of Mexico off of the Alabama Coast.  Waves were at a minimum and the temps were not too hot.  As we left the dock the first thing I saw was crew boatdocking to one of the oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico.  We continue our voyage out into the middle of the Gulf of Mexico.  After we went out approx 30 miles we reached  clear blue water.  It was so clear that you could see the jelly fish in the water.  

Time to put the Diver's Flag out to warn all boaters that there is diver (s) below.  After getting all of the gear on my husband is ready to go.  In the water he makes sure the  Dive computer is working before swimming off.  Looks like everything is going smoothly.  Off for a great dive and  swimming toward the buoy which he will go down.
Giving me the signal that everything is okay.
