helping to save the ocean...

well, I'm doing my part to give back to mother nature.

Back when I worked for the city, myself and a close friend (also no longer working for the city) were involved in a project making concrete reef balls which were lowered to the ocean floor to provide an artificial reef or habitat for the marine life.

Well that was 6 years ago, and the same non for profit organizion has approached my friend and myself to donate our time to help make another 30 to 50 of these reef balls again.

Anyone that knows me, knows that I love the ocean and get out fishing or out for weekend marina trips to get extremely hammered all the time! So I gladly jumped at the chance to give back to something that brings me so much joy! Turns out we are the only 2 people here in Victoria that can actually make these things too! I'll be posting some pics of these reef balls later this afternoon. We have another concrete pour scheduled for 2 this afternoon so I will put the pics up after that.
