John Ross
 
The photo of John was a reminder to us all of a man very close to 80 years old in his element on a lonely Waiheke Beach, picking through the abundant driftwood to produce an excellent fire.
Having this Diving Legend in our club is a very special privilege. John he can still free dive for Scallops in 14 meters of water and on this occasion he had collected some mussels.
We cooked them on a lovely rocky beach on Waiheke last Friday on a day from heaven.
 
We enjoyed a day out of the box on Friday. Flat calm seas, lovely sunny day and great company; a world away from Covid-19. How Lucky are we to be in Gods Own.
 
Cheers
George
