Going out with a bang

Less than one week left. We are trying to do everything we haven’t done yet during our final week. We scheduled a resort dive for Brynn on Thursday so that she can get a taste of scuba diving. I hope she enjoys her first underwater diving excursion. I found out this last week that I would not be able to go diving while I’m here. My root canal procedure is only half done and according to the internet bad things can happen if the procedure is not completely finished. I may try to do some of the resort dive with Brynn and just not go very deep and be really slow and careful while descending. Supposedly when you have had only part of a root canal procedure and go diving you can get a bubble in your tooth cavity and when you ascend to the surface the bubble expands and your tooth can explode. Sound exciting? Maybe I’ll have a great story to tell Friday morning. I am a little frustrated that I am near one of the biggest and best reefs in the world and I cannot even go dive. Oh well, maybe someday we can come back to little Grand Turk.

Here’s the scoop on our return.
We have to work on Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday then on Sunday at 11:00 am we will be on a plane to Provodenciales, then on to Miami, to Colorado, and finally arriving in Utah sweet Utah at 11:30 pm. See you then.

An exploded tooth would totally cap off the trip. Make sure you carry a camera to see exactly when it explodes.
