Ok, she was not lost. Just have not seen her in a few years...
We had made plans to meet Dentia for dinner just down the road in Panacea Fl. so, we googled Panacea and discovered that there is a hands on aquarium just a couple miles from where we were to meet.
The aquarium is called Gulf Specimen Marine Laboratories Inc. http://www.gulfspecimen.org/. This is a private organization that has several touch tanks. We were able to touch/hold fiddler crabs, starfish, horseshoe crabs, spiny urchins, snails, mussels, etc. The sharks, stingrays and eels were for looking only though. It was not a spiffy shiny aquarium you will see in the large cities. Seemed to be very much a low budget operation, but interesting and well worth the visit.
Afterward we met Denita for dinner at nice local restaurant. The Greek Flounder was very good. It was great to see her again. Looks like Florida definitely agrees with the girl. Wishing her good luck with her new career.
