I love sharing my ocean with people. Obviously. LMAOBut bringing kids on the boat – is something that excites me beyond measure. Not only does it mean teaching future generations to care for the ocean – it means there will be others onboard as hyped about animals AND waves AND shells AND FISHAND SHARKS (I …

Gloomy Curacao
I have had this post done for a long time (well the pictures and videos) but I kept coming back to edit the words because this time Curacao was different. Rewind with me for a second; 2018 was one of the best years of my life. I was single for the first time in way …
Manatee in Our Canal
I never feel so blessed as I do when a wild animal approaches me. This gorgeous thing made it’s way to the canal in front of our house in the keys seeking warmer waters during the winter (if I can call what South Florida has ‘winter’ anyway). If you know anything about manatees, it’s that …
Dushi Curaçao
Relax. “Dushi” means sweet in Papimiento… ya’ pessimists. People there use it as a term of endearment like “sweetie.” I’m so sorry for how cliché this is but this year, (cue valley-girl high-pitch voice… or Miami super chonga voice with thick brows and a Michael Kors bag [ie my regular voice]) I decided I was …

I judge people based on how they feel about rain. Everyone likes sunshine and tan-lines. *hard eye-roll* Let’s hear it for raindrops and muddy feet ! JK I don’t judge anyone (or I try not to #2016Resolution) This past Labor Day weekend was a rainy one. These are some of my normal rainy day activities: I …
I Found a Pole
If you read my about me you know that I “[find] wonder in the ordinarily mundane” (#wordmagic) and this post & pole will serve as proof. I found a pole in the ocean and I loved it. Two poles to be precise. All ocean-goers know the excitement of finding any big structures in open water. …
Jerry & Grover
Goliath groupers are dangerously… adorable.
My First Shark
Shark week is upon us. & although I watch very little TV and am not a huge fan of Shark week (forgive me) … I will happily jump on the bandwagon – or dive into it. Sharks are most likely my favorite animal. Don’t quote me on that. I love alligators too… Don’t quote me on …
