I ended up using the plastic cover/casing that you get when you buy a $20 comforter at walmart, with holes cut out for the lense and camera strap. I also using the lid off a jam jar to seal the hole around the lense, to make sure no water would get in. In all, it looked pretty fancy and worked for what I needed if for. The quality of the footage came out pretty well and I am now editing it for the Documentary that I'm putting out on DVD in September. I will post some pics of my "water cover" when I can. Hopefully I'll be able to post some of the Documentary as well. It was a wonderful experience to have and made for some pretty interesting shots. The biggest bonus was not getting sick.
