Paddleboarding






One of my goals this summer was to start paddle boarding again. I had to take a break due to a bad elbow injury in January. I was so excited to get back on the water. The first time back out, I took Bella with me. I'm not sure it was her favorite, but she was a trooper. She whined at least half the time and seemed to want off the board, so I let her get off and swim in the water a few times. She did a great job.


The next time I took Kaylee with me. She didn't whine at all, so it was a lot more peaceful. We saw a couple manatees and a few sting rays, which was super fun. We had a great time!


I also took Shelli out with me. She had only been out once before so was pretty green. When we were just getting started, I thought I saw a shadow under her board, so moved a little closer. Right then, her board started to shake and she screamed. A moment later, we discovered there was a manatee under her board as we saw it swim by. There were two actually. They were so fun to see up close. It gave Shelli quite the scare, but we were excited to see them, so it was worth it. Fun times!
