         The life and times of Mark and Paula Persons

September 16, 2009:  Took a Wednesday night dive and here is a photo of me done at 65 feet at a site named Sand Chute.  My dive buddy Tom Mattson and I decided to follow some old mining pipes we found in a shallow part of the pit in about 20 ft of water.  We followed it down and what do we find at 65 feet. below the surface?

But a coffin with the skull and bones.  Some prankster got his torch out and welded this up for crazy divers to find.

Note the detail of the skull.

Upon opening you can see the skeleton with the help of my dive partner's flashlight beam.  We then took our time coming to the surface.  I had seen the skeleton before but it is always fun to check it out again.
