Manatee

This is what the Manatee looked like when we first saw them..
I wish I knew the trick to posting the pictures with the right words.

Weekend at Indian Pass Campground

Well we went to Indian Pass Campground on August 13th for the weekend. We drove the motor home because we needed to help the economy. ha:) It really burns a lot of gas but it hasn't been driven in a while and its not good for it to set up for long periods of time. It's kinda like our bodies, they need exercise and activity. :)
I thought the campground was closer to Apalachicola but it was like 23 miles west of there. We had a beatiful campspot looking out over the water. We were able to see lots of dolphins and birds.

We drove into Apalachicola on Saturday and shopped (mostely window). We ate lunch at the Owl Cafe, really good. We also loved "The Tin Shed", so much stuff to see. I bought some wind chimes and shells. Rod and Robin were camping at Ho Hum and they drove over and we walked around with them for a while and got ice cream at one of the ice cream shops. I got a neat picture in front of "She Dreams of Apalach". cute
Rod and Robin called us after they left to come see some whales that were in the water just over the bridge. I was snapping pictures of two gray humps in the water and then Robin comes to tell me they are Manatee. :(( not whales. I lost my enthusiasm after that. I did get some pretty neat pictures of the Manatee though.
