Holy Smokes...Scuba in Maui is AMAZING!

Yesterday Jeremiah and I did our first Hawaii ocean dive! YES!! Not only was it our first time in Maui, it was also our very first drift dive along with a second wreck dive.

You said how much?!

We knew that getting into Scuba Diving would be VERY pricey...Not so much the classes but we knew we'd need to get our own gear, that means we'd need to spend some serious money, unfortunately. 

We debated and debated before coming to the decision that this would be great for our video series and for the experience in gen...

The new world of scuba diving!

We are smack dead in the middle of our scuba diving lessons. Yes, we probably could be done by now but we've switched to private lessons, let me tell you why…

It started off a bit rocky as we were only able to get through half of our online classes due to an online issue that PADI was having on their end. We did complete the...

TO have dogs or to NOT have dogs!

Should your dogs sail away with you? That's a good question! 

It’s all personal preference, but I can offer you insight into what we do and how we handle our dogs while onboard. 

First, if we could go back in time and make the decision to get them or not, we would choose to pass. At that time, we just didn't ...

New Lazy Gecko Logos!

We're finally finished with the process of creating our new logo! The main logo will be the one in color but we also wanted the other black and white choices for shirts, hats, koozies and other swag. We have some sweet ideas for swag that we plan to order soon.

We've always used the little gecko laying in a hammock which was g...

Ok, we're getting closer!

Here's the latest version of number 5, please let us know what you think! 

We're planning on purchasing number 1 for the front of shirts, hats and stuff like that. This will be our main logo though. 

We tried to incorporate the Gecko, sailing and some from the Marine Corps. The Gecko has a blood stripe which NC...

Logo?!?! Heck, we don't know...

So we've got a few samples of POSSIBLE logos to replace our beloved gecko on a hammock. Each of these are finalists that have been submitted and can still be adjusted to match new ideas.

We like some of these more than others and we've already made a few requests for changes. Let's keep that under wraps though so we get some f...

Get your swag on!

We started to run low on swag recently, I was hoping that we would have our new logo finished for the new order. Unfortunately the new logo is still in the works so I went ahead a placed an new order with our old logo on it, which is still pretty cool if you ask me! 

It should arrive in a week or two, then I can send it o...

Creating a new logo!

We know the sample says "hoping", it should say "hopping" but we're currently working on creating a new logo for LGS and we would like some feedback! This is a rough draft, as we plan to change coloring and are looking for a more sleek and sophisticated font. We may also add the coordinates to where it all began, but first we wo...

Let's go diving!!

Since we're moving forward with our new boat, Calypso, we’ve decided it’s time to get certified in scuba diving. We start our classes next week!
