The beginning of Manatee season (so be careful out there ... for their sake)!
Back where I grew up (in PA) and where I used to live for a dozen years (Chicago), we had winter, spring, summer and fall.
But one of the first things I learned since making the big move to this part of the world is that there really isn't much of a distinction between those four cycles of the calendar. Instead, there's turtle nesting season, which overlaps with hurricane season, which are both followed by manatee migration season.
And apparently new this season ... the friendly power company has created a free location to view these creatures. In other news, the list of activities for when family comes to visit at the end of January just got a new item added to it.
