We loaded up Paula and Jims Little Boat this morning and took fried chicken, potato salad and chips and headed out for a day on the water!!! We went to Blue Springs State Park in hopes of seeing some manatee, but None there!! The water in the lake is so warm they have no reason to migrate to the warm water there for refuge. A bit disappointing!! We enjoyed a great picnic lunch and a great hike through the park. They surprised us with Rod a new pocket knife with his name engraved on it also the parks name, and me a new magnet for my fridge that I collect on places we visit on our journey south!!
We traveled another 3 miles on up river to Hontoon State Park and enjoyed a nice stroll around that park.
The ride there and and home was a beautiful ride.
We were all exhausted after a 6 hour day on the water!!
I took leftover chicken and made dinner for us all chicken Alfredo and green beans!!
Showers taken, jammies on and I probably will be asleep long before the ball falls!! We are having to console Lexie this evening as the fireworks people are shooting off have her scared to death!!
Happy New Year to all, Love, Fran & Capn Rod
But no Manatee!
