Urban Snorkling

The snorkling adventures that Manuel Wanskasmith has been documenting over at his Buffoonery site have Seattlest an even darker shade of green with envy. Manuel and friends have been diving at various Lake Washington beaches and marinas in search of... In search of what we don't exactly know, but that's exactly why we're so interested in what's down there.

From his most recent dive:

I also found a beer bottle with a message stuffed inside. "If you find this call 425-522-XXXX." The letter tore apart in my pocket and floated away in tiny pieces. I guess that bitch ain't gettin' rescued. Stranded on a yuppie condo dock—what a way to go out.

Manuel, please, we need some underwater photos. Seattlest, the entire city of Seattle and the greater metroplitan area are counting on you to be our eyes down there. We know that crap is expensive, so if it takes an online tip jar, we're ready to point people to it. Barring that, we're sure the people at Make are ready, willing and able to get something rigged up.
