I had to work, so I'm catching up with all the ocean lovers tonight. I'm so tired and was about ready to call it a night and thought, "go read one more." <br /><br />So here I am and your stories of Kelly just had me grinning from ear to ear. I see them in the wild here in Florida and when I lived in California would see them surfing the waves. They are such a joy and yep, I would classify them as non-human humans in a heartbeat.<br /><br />Thank you so much for joining us all to celebrate this most special day. The more we learn and the more we share with others, the better chance our ocean and her inhabitants will have to survive. Since this all has a direct impact on we mere humans, I hope they all pay attention!<br /><br />You taught me a lot I didn't know and reinforced some things I did, thank you from the bottom of my ocean loving heart!Shellbellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14836629045327379085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5571749075036803790.post-65893929003081559092011-06-08T16:58:20.610-07:002011-06-08T16:58:20.610-07:00Happy Oceans Day Nancy...I enjoyed reading about t...Happy Oceans Day Nancy...I enjoyed reading about the dolphins and links.
