         The life and times of Mark and Paula Persons

June 2, 2010: "Deep-Diver Paula" grabbed her SCUBA diving gear and headed for the Minnesota School of Diving shop in Brainerd.  Hmmm....I wonder what she is up to?
Paula was spotted with some of her buddies getting into a dive van.  But, where are they going?

Ah..Ha...they headed to a lake near Crosby, Minnesota, to do some SCUBA diving.

All suited-up, she was just getting her mask ready before slipping under the surface with her friends.  In total, there were 15 divers and 2 non-divers on the trip.

Dive Master Josh Duda was in the parking area cooking bratwurst and hamburgers.  Josh, are you competing to be the next Iron Chef?

Look at that....a double hamburger.  Curtis Lahr is a happy guy.

> Paula and friends used social/dinner time to discuss the dives and maybe tell a few lies about the fish they say they saw.
