Manatees in Florida

My daughters Susan and Anne arrived in Sarasota County, Florida today to visit Grandma and Uncle Andrew. They visited the jetty park in Venice and what did they see right off the bat? A manatee! Susan snapped a picture and emailed it. She wrote: "It was just one feeding on rock algae for about 30 minutes, then it swam out and came back with two friends. I was about 15' away from them when I took that picture.  It was super cool!!!!!"
