Hey, It Could Happen To Anyone

On this day in 1493, Italian explorer Christopher Columbus, sailing near the Dominican Republic, saw three “mermaids”–actually, they were manatees, corpulent marine mammals.
Columbus relayed the disappointing news that these mermaids were “not half as beautiful as they are painted.”

Manatees are so adorable! One of these days I need to get to Florida to see them in person.
Happy writing!!!
I love manatees so much, Sue—had to share a smile on an otherwise gloomy grim day in California (storms, mud, general mayhem). Thanks for visiting!
