July 19th was a sad day in the Ozarks when 17 tourists lost their lives aboard the amphibious "Ride the Ducks" attraction on Table Rock Lake. My heart is full of grief at this loss. Each weekend our dive boat passes the ducks and their fabled Duck Island on the way to our dive spots. Our interactions with the passengers and drivers were always fun. Clapping and cheering could be heard from both boats! Recently, the news is full of coverage about this tragedy with many casting blame and ridicule even before the waves were calm. I grieve for those lost and pray for those that remain.
