I was doing some hard drive house cleaning this morning (heck of a way to ring in the new year I know!) when I came across some photos I never posted. In fact I hardly even looked at them until today. This past November when we visited Drew’s grandparents in Florida we went to Mote Marine Laboratory. It’s a wonderful aquarium with a focus on ecology, preservation, science and education. They rehabilitate a lot of animals and do a lot of good for the under water community down in Florida. Mote has a Manatee research program which includes 2 incredible specimens that live at the Mote Laboratory, because they can not return to the wild. Their names are Hugh and Buffet and here are a couple photos of the adorable guys!
