     My brother gave me an underwater camera for Christmas this year.  It is a Pentax W60.  It is more complicated than other cameras I've had.  I love taking the under water pictures.  I got it to take pictures in my pond.  But I tried it out in the tub where I keep my guppies.  
     You may notice that there is a gold fish swimming by.  Actually there are quit a few gold fish in with the guppies this year.  This is all quit by accident.  I put my guppies in the little south pond last summer, because we had carpet put down in the house and I didn't want the aquarium in the house or have to move it around.  The guppies seemed very happy outside.  But as the summer ended I filled a large 50 gallon tub and brought them back inside.  The tub is a little different than the aquarium in that I can move my tender water plants inside.  Some time I must have gotten some gold fish eggs in with the guppies, because there must be close to ten of them now.  I really don't need anymore gold fish, but I'm tender hearted and I won't kill them.  So next year I'll put them in the big pond.  
   I am looking forward to snorkeling in my pond and taking pictures underwater.  What a great gift from my dear brother.
