It is fun to see dolphins jumping and swimming along together! They followed our boat down the river one day.  Flat Stanley loves the dolphins!

Nascar races in February! Many, many, many motorcycles come here in March. Flat Stanley loves to watch the cars race!

Ryan's Grammy lives where you see the red roof townhouses! They go to the beach in front of the tall, round building.  Flat Stanley loves the warm water.

Flat Stanley loves sea turtles!

Ryan's Grammy has found these sand dollars right on the beach!  Aren't they pretty? Right now, Ryan's Grammy says that it is not hot where they are.  They went to the beach on Sunday and it was 75 degrees! The water temperature was 57 degrees. In March, the weather will be warmer and they will walk every day.  Flat Stanley loves walking on the beach--it's such great fitness!

Alligators just like this one are seen on golf courses, in rivers, and in other places.  Be careful, Flat Stanley!

Ryan's Grammy and Flat Stanley have found these beautiful creatures on the beach!  Do you know what they are?  They are called starfish! After a very high tide or a storm, it is fun to look for unusual things on the beach.  Their beach is more than 20 miles long! Cars can even drive on the beach because the sand is packed down very hard! Thank you so much for your wonderful pictures, Grammy Leonard!
