- Got to see my first #manatee while paddling 220 miles on the Suwannee River from Fargo, GA, to Suwannee, FL. Here's some #underwater footage of these two springs including some #manatees .

Great video
Thanks Tommy!!
Thanks for taking care of all my bucket list trips. I can just sit and gain weight by my computer and watch now.
Nice footage and editing!
Ba ha ha!! Well, hopefully you get to experience them for yourself!! But this was a fantastic trip, for sure!!! :-)
Been wanting to see them...been looking in South Alabama..awesome video...thx.Dan
Thanks, David!! It was my first time seeing them and it was so cool!!
Pretty 😎 cool stuff.
Thanks, bro! It was a cool experience!!
Really amazing underwater scenery. Definitely a bucket list item to paddle and swim in a Spring… but maybe not one with gators lurking 😏 Thanks for sharing Dan.
Ha, ha- very true, Lashonda!! It was so cool seeing them...even though they were mainly sleeping...lol!!
Glad you got to experience that. Plan on a paddle with us to FL next winter
Hey Roggie!! It was super cool- I need some more of those clear spring waters!!! :-)
Now that was cool! The underwater footage looked great! Can't wait to hear more about it!
Thanks, Brad!! Hope I get to share some about it on your podcast soon!! :)
@@SouthernPaddler Sounds great!
That was some really cool footage Dan, the manatee at 50 seconds even said safe travels and waived bye lol.
Ha, ha- yes it did! I hated they were napping mostly, but it was still a cool experience!! :)
You captured some amazing footage, brother. That was awesome.
Preciate it, John!!
Hello Dan, those are very mysterious and beautiful animals. I envy you a bit for that! Greetings from David PT.
Thank you, David! Yes, it was quite an experience meeting these unusual creatures!! Dan SP
Those creatures are incredible, yeah?
Absolutely!! My first time seeing them in person and it was so cool!!!
Man it's seeing the manatee in the water. I need to take my family there kayaking. When did you go to Florida & how long was you there Dan? Look like a nice time there. How long did it take you to get there in driving? Good video buddy thanks you for sharing it.
Hey Mack - Hope you're staying warm and dry this winter! I was there Feb 9th-18th (trip started on the 10th). It was about a 8.5 - 9 hour drive. I picked up Dawn on the way and we did the last 5.5 hours together, so that was much nicer that going solo!! Hope you're doing well!!
@SouthernPaddler Hello Dan yes I am staying warm man & definitely dry. My family will not let me go out in the snow. That was a nice time to go there & warm up man. Oh OK the drive was about 8.5 to 9 hours. Not to bad but long enough. Oh OK after picking up Dawn the rest of the trip was a lot best. It's always is like that. You see what I go through in the Truck 🚛 on my 1,200 & 1,500 miles trip I have to do by myself in the Truck 🚛. I am doing pretty well & & my family. I am Just doing my therapy to calm my nerves down & build my muscles backed up in my feet 🦶. I tell you man Damaged nerves and muscles in your feet 🦶 is very very painful man. & me being a chubby fat dude with extreme wide feet 🦶 doesn't help. But I am hanging in there & me & my family can't wait to get back to kayaking again. All 6 of my boys keep talking about that every time we eat out together. They love & miss kayaking & so do me too. I hope you have a good weekend buddy.
Yes, riding solo isn't always fun...especially over long distances! I hope the therapy goes well! Thanks Mack!
