Love when they create new habitat with man made objects which would otherwise be junk. Thank you!

Vandenberg will be sunk a mere 140 feet of water off Key West, creating the worldâ€™s second largest artificial reef after the Oriskany (Pensacola, Florida).

I know they need some but not all of the ones they have they should give away the ones that need the most work it would save them money. kath’s last blog post..Hotels in key west.
