Another wonderful day in Florida

I went out tubing with Devin and his best friend Ryan today. We met at Ryan’s dad’s house because he has a dock which goes over this gorgeous, shallow water that you can see all sorts of fish in and out on the river. They guys were silly enough to let me take the jet ski out by myself and of course I managed to get lost. Is there any place I can’t get lost? I was having fun trying to hit waves and going in circles and when I started thinking about heading back in I realized I had no idea what the dock looked like or even the faintest idea of where it was. I spent a good deal of time idling up and down the shore looking for it however I was way too far north. Devin paddled out on the kayak to come find and rescue me and get me back to the dock. I took pictures of the animals while the guys were out and I saw a needlefish, stingrays, a conch, some kind of bird, dolphins, and a manatee. Sitting on the river reminded me of sitting out on Grandma’s lake. Tubing was a lot of fun and Devin was nice and slowed down when it looked like I was holding on for dear life. He let me pull him on the tube and I was not nearly as nice and I managed to toss him off once. Yet another wonderful day in Florida.
