All the Way to the Boat Ramp!

I didn’t get out until about nine o’clock this morning, but the conditions were perfect!  I wasn’t sure how my arm was going to feel.  I saw a paddling friend as I was going out and she asked how my arm was.  I told her I was working on it!  I started paddling and my arm felt pretty good….so I just kept paddling, and ended up all the way to the boat ramp.  The conditions were so nice and two turtles surfaced to meet me so I was so excited!  Unfortunately, the pontoon tourist boat was just heading in my direction.  Then someone shouted to the tourists who were starting to snorkel, “Hey go over by that lady on the paddle board, she has turtles by her!”  Well that was my cue to say good-bye to the turtles and I headed back.  The conditions stayed nice all the way back and even through my swim!  And my arm?  well it felt pretty good too!

    HAHAHAHA. I LOVE YOUR POSTS! I had a quick one today as Jack was on shore…. I took him out on the board yesterday and a wave knocked him off. The wave took him tomshore but he wasn’t into going in the water anymore! haaaha.. Wonder what he thinks of the salt! He’s pooped now!
    How do I post a picture??

  2. Thats funny about the tourist boat, even they know you’re the turtle whisperer! Glad your arm is better now 🙂

    • I was actually surprised at how much better my arm did today….. I sure hope it continues to improve. Injuries are NO fun. Neither is competing with a tour boat! I have to get an earlier start.
