So @veedubtek came down to hang out for the weekend and we headed out to one of the islands we frequent on Saturday. There was a large group of college kids who showed up and pulled out what appeared to be a very large plastic liner they then drenched it in Dawn dish detergent and water. Turning the hill on the Island into a water slide. No inflating it was very compact when folded I thought it was genius for about an hour they where the kings of the island every kid out there went nuts going down this thing lol. I must say I did not go down it neither did anyone in my party and just because these guys did this doesn't mean I recommend you do it but thought it was neat but could be dangerous and any thoughts of doing this should be done with extreme caution and at your own risk!

 
Who thinks we could get away with doing this at the giant dredged sand pile at the North tip of South Bimini?

This could be an interesting exploration option for an event in Bimini as long as we were not sliding into sting ray or sharks lol. I'm not familiar with the sand pile though but I'm guessing it rather large.
 
We have our own pictures somewhere but this was immediately available. It is near the ferry dock.
