Sea Turtles Spotted

[Smiling JOe]

I am not sure when Mermaid will be able to post while she is here, so I will post this funn news for her. Today, Mermaid, Merman and I went kayaking and saw two very large Sea Turtles not far from the beach in Grayton. It was really cool. At first, I thought it was some dark sand on the bottom, then, I went back and looked more closely at the fish hovering around it and noticed it had a tail, fins and head. Sea Turtles Runnin'! (as Sueshore would say). We also saw a small Black Tip Shark hanging out maybe 20 meters off the beach in front of the State Park. It was really cool.

We also saw a gaggle of SoWallers at the boat ramp on Western Lake. ;-)

No, she said wearing the back back made her ride too rigid.

How do they help the turtles with the hooks?
Do they have to operate or what?
The ones we saw in Hawaii were so cool.
I hope I get to see a live one here sometime.
