I wish that was me paddling… but not yet.  The back injection has helped a lot but I still can’t carry my board down to the water.  My husband got me this nifty rolling thing that I can put my board on and just roll it down but I have not been able to try it out yet.  I need a very calm day and lately there has been a lot of wind and now a swell is occurring.  Hopefully one day soon I will get to try it out!  At least I can swim without assistance.  I had five turtles today and since there was a swell and water visibility was not great…. I had all five turtles all to myself!  No tourist snorkelers!  Yay!
