Missed Dolphins again!

I could really use a dolphin encounter one of these days.  Just as I came in and tied my board on my car, I heard the lifeguard say, “yeah, it’s a dolphin right out by the white buoy”,  and I was already in.  It was a wonderful paddling day though, and I saw one turtle down by Kam III and then at the boat ramp, I came across another one!  The last turtle was a smaller one, probably a youngster.  I decided to follow it for a while, and it kept popping its head up to look at me!  The conditions were very glassy again today which made paddling extra enjoyable.  As I was starting to paddle in, I saw something dark moving down in the water!  I stayed with it, but it never surfaced.  The water was clear so I could make out a long tail, I think it was some type of Ray.  Every day is different and I never know what I will see!  One day it’s going to be dolphins again, I just know it.
