Mosquito Lagoon Camping
 

Patti and I decided to do a little island camping in
the lagoon last night. Found the perfect spoil island that
was about 3 acres in size. This one was perfect with a protected cove on the back side with plenty of depth to safely tie up the 64 Lone Star flats boat to be away from the ICW.

Site was right next to cove..

There were Manatees in the cove and let me say they
were quite vocal through out the entire night!!!
We arose to a clatter at 6:00AM today and this
was going on for over 3 hours... :eek: :D

Keep in mind these big-uns were in 4ft. of water

We counted at least 13 moving in and out over the
3 hour period.
Believe it or not this was a blast, the temp last night was
great, had to throw a sleeping bag over the two of us as
it was a little cool, outside temp wise that is! ;)

The water is plenty deep as where we could make it in
with the SeaCraft, but the 'ole flats boat was packed to
the gills and is a heck of a lot easier and cheaper
to operate...
There are a bunch of these spoil islands that would be great
for a primative SeaCraft gathering!! :D

We stayed on ML-DD-68-1

Manatee Lovin...

Re: Mosquito Lagoon Camping
 

Wow Ken, I'm impressed with you!!!!


I must say that's one thing I have never seen......manatees mating. I'm assuming they move to "area 442" expecting privacy, however 'ol Ken knows where to find em.

Re: Mosquito Lagoon Camping
 

Thanks Ken for the heads up......you're the best!!! I'm calling my doctor first thing Monday morning!!!! I'm telling him I don't want the limp 14.4 DC volt or the soft 18 volt DC battery type "mydixadrill"....I want the full AC voltage!!! Heck, I've got Medco and I get my drugs at a great discount.

Oh yeah.....gotta love Spidey Sam, always coming up with great ideas to keep the better half happy!!

Ken, I thought you went under the knife for an addadicktomy last year. Did it get rejected?

Must be those Mannatee Magnets in your insoles.

I`m sure Sam has stuffed a Mannatee or two in his day.

Cheers,
GFS

As I saw on a t-shirt a while back at a Buffett concert, "Manatee, the other white meat".
