As soon as I walked to the beach this morning …… I knew it was a paddling day! It’s the 8th of January today and I had not had a turtle day yet this year…… so I hoped it was today.  The day ended up being super nice all the way around!  Blue skies…… calm water…… light breeze…..and TURTLES!  I was thrilled to be paddling in nice conditions all the way  down to the boat ramp!  It was perfect at the boat ramp and a total of four turtles.  One turtle especially posing for pictures!  It was so nice!  I paddled back in perfect conditions and I didn’t want to come in!  But swimming was nice too with just a little more wind blowing but still very nice.  It was nice to have some clear water after all the storms and run off that occurred.  I was happy to see lots of fish down at the reef today…… even a school of about 24 fish swam under me!  Please give me a tomorrow…. just like today!  Please!
