Location: Placerville, CA.... You know, the only place on Highway 50 between Sacramento and Lake Tahoe the you find signal lights. Above the fog most of the time and I can see the stars of the Milky Way 8 out of 10 nights. Kinda cool.....

Funny you mentioned the plate frame. We talked about that this AM. All barcode stickers pulled and secured for turn in. After haveing a rental broken into on a previous visit, thought we would try different tactics. Thanks for the heads up on rubber bumper dealio. Those little buggers are coming off as soon as I get to my dive tool kit. Pic to follow a little later

I should have known you were on Maui because of the L plates. Maui plates will start with an M or L. Kauai with a K, Hawaii Island with an H, and Oahu everything else. If you should meet a dive instructor with the name of Rani or Lexi, tell her I said Hi. Japanese Korean mix late forties about 5'4" tall.

There are some good dive sites off of Lanai, it's a bit of a boat ride, nice if calmish.

Also some good snorkeling at Oluwalu, between Lahaina. And Maalaea Hbr

Sunrise on Haleakala can be spectacular. Its chilly but beautifull

Have fun,

Cheers Richard

Good to know, thanks.

Now I can't help but check out the sequence numbers. Rubber bumpers removed and a plate frame on the back. I know it doesn't really matter and there is no silver camouflage bullet,just looking to get passed over while parked at a dive site. Bottom line, follow the list of "don'ts" while in a rental.

Mahalo,

I forgot to ask what dive operator is she affiliated with?

No idea who she works for. She goes between Honolulu and Maui taking tours. Has a condo here and a house in Maui. She's an ex that calls me every so often to go out. I stay away from that as she's got the crazy eyes.

It looks like the Volt concept morphed into the Camaro.

I swear if the belt line goes any Higher and the Windows any smaller we will have to have self driving cars.



I had thought the Camero had allready gone too far that way.
