However, I was pleasantly surprised with your penmanship RO. You did a very good job...

Wha-ha-ha! How's this penmanship?:funn:

The shark was probably the same one I told you about earlier in the week--I guess there was good fishing in that area.
I was trying to get through the sea weed yesterday and looked down and saw what I think was a portuguese man-of-war--I then boogied for the nearest pool.

I've only seen one man-of-war ever. I do know a lady that got zapped by one. She ended up in the hospital. Those things are bad news.

Yes, I am a Man O' War murderer. But only when a dozen or so kids want to touch it, play with it, poke sticks at it, etc. They are kid magnets because they are so cool looking, but I didn't have my Man'OWar sling shot handy to zing it out past the second sand bar.

Back to RO's shark. Yes, I remember my first...shark.;-)

Great story, RO! I think we mighta seen one too, but I don't wear glasses, so it coulda been a dolphin. Not enough of a story to mention....your story is great and Kitty's right--you are a HeRO.

Whenever I kayak in the Gulf in the morning I almost always see at least one 3' bullshark up near the shore.

I guess the extra height of being in the 'boat' makes 'em easier to spot. Either way, I think they are always there.

Sometimes, when I am feeling particularily energetic - I will chase them. Not sure why I enjoy this, it must be some sort of Queequeg Syndrome. The need to chase after aquatic animals.
