One picture of your last outing.

Met some new friends :D:D:D

The dolphin nearly gave me a heart attack. I had been watching shark week which probably wan't the best idea while visiting the gulf lol but I was in the water by my boat and my wife was a good 25-30 yards away on the beach when I see her pointing and yelling something. I couldn't hear her so I start looking around and see this massive shadow about 15 ft away from me and heading toward me and my boat. I was too far from the boat to get out so I just sort of froze and hoped for the best lol. The dolphin got a little closer and then popped his head out to say it's all good then he swims all around me for a good 3 minutes while I'm trying to film him zooming around. It was the closest I've been in the water with a bottlenose dolphin!

The manatee had came in real smooth and slow and was interested in checking out the boat. Those things are much larger than I had seen them on TV. I can totally see where they get the nickname sea cow :D.

I saw some sharks too but unfortunately I didn't have my camera out in time as I chased him around with my boat lol.

Hey, I know that kid.
Thanks @Scottintexas for adopting my Texas kids. I really do appreciate your taking them out to satisfy their boating desires. Hopefully they behaved and were gracious guests.
They just about have me convinced to move down your way soon.
