New Years day dive.

 New Years day dive with a group from the Alpha Dive Shop to Octopus City.
Crisp sunny afternoon. water temp was 45 deg. F , vis at 100 ft plus and clear.
 Saw a couple octos for first time at this site, and lots of hooded nudibranchs on eelgrass among other things. Hey, even saw one octopus lay a mitt on Bens strobe.









 Great afternoon
