Perfect Day

Oh what a beautiful day. The weather could not have been better. Fred and I spent about 4 hours out on the boat today. We rode over to St. Marks and went down the river. We were looking for Manatees. We found four. They are almost the same color as the river. The rivers in No. Fl. are a tea color. They are so clear that you can see the bottom. But unless the lighting is just right it is hard to get a picture of the manatees. I love the river and the marsh. The marsh is always a beautiful assortment of color. The blue, greens, greys, browns, tan and any accent color is always perfect. The wild flowers were great. We saw wild iris that were the purest white. Something real strange happened on the river. I was sitting in the front of the boat and a dolphin jumped up. The strange thing about that is that the river is fresh water. And yes if my magic wand was not in the shop I could have had him smile. There were a lot of fish that the dolphins like to eat in the river today but fresh water. I am going to have to look that one up. When we were back in salt water another thing happened. Twice, all of the sudden it was like someone dropped a heavy basketball, beside the boat, out of the ski. It scared us. It was a pelican diving for fish. But it looked and sounded like bombs dropping.
We just enjoyed today on the water. It was great.
