1/26/12 (Thursday): Two blogs in two days -- do I get extra credit for that?! Today we took our visiting friends from Boone, NC, and some campground friends for a pontoon boat tour of Mosquito Lagoon. Thanks, Michell for arranging this last-minute treat! The National Park Service treats its volunteers very well. Walt and Dennis gave us the VIP treatment. We left from the Visitor Center, debarked at Seminole Rest where Leslie gave us a tour of the big house and the caretaker's house, then we headed back to the Visitor Center. Lots of fun along the way.
In the above video: Ranger Walt, Bob, Joan, Joe, Dave, Kathleen, Captain Dennis, Lorraine, Jim, Wiley.
In no particular order, here are some of the sights we saw:

| Dolphin |

| Dolphin Pod |
 |
| House Boat |

| Old Cannery |
 |
| Oyster Tonging |
 |
| Seminole Rest |
 |
| Shipwreck |

| Staircase and Stained Glass Window in Seminole Rest |

| State House at Eldora (where I volunteer) |
We leave for our trip on Monday -- hope you'll join us for a vicarious tour!
