Columbus was never there. Ponce de Leon was.

Actually, I haven't. Just ask my wife.

But I think I started diving (or at least puttering around under the docks with a Hawaiian sling) at about age 12 in 1951, got my first scuba gear in 1954 at age 15, and dove in the Tampa Bay area until I graduated from college in 1960.

I didn't actually meet Ponce de Leon, but I saw him walk by through the swamp one time.

I'm 68, but I don't look a day over 67.

You can see that in my avatar, can't you?

That was when he missed the Fountain of Youth, that you had camouflaged so nobody else will drink from it!
