Update re #HollywoodFL & #Broward: Growing citizen frustration with flooding in #HollywoodLakes, the city's #SUP experiment at #HollywoodBeach is nearing an end, so what's next?; practical efforts to improve beach conditions.

CORRECTION: The Sept. 11th public meeting I reference below to Michelle will actually be held at the Washington Park Community Center at 5199 Pembroke Road, NOT at Hollywood City Hall.




























Manta ray welcoming me back to Florida this morning ❤️ Saw him breach and do a big belly flop. Only got a few hours of sleep after my flight but so worth getting up early anyway. Manta ray, black tip shark, lots of fishies, a fresh sea turtle nest, and friendly human neighbors too. I love that I actually see paddlers enjoying the ocean now. I used to be all alone. ๐Ÿ˜Ž The @marinemegafauna says we have a manta ray nursery! So lucky. ๐ŸŒŠ๐ŸŒŠ๐ŸŒŠ#loveFL #thankyouocean #mantaray #seaturtle #turtlenest #sup #paddle #standuppaddlingisnotacrime #shark #paddleboard #standuppaddle #optoutside #sunrise #hollywoodbeach #hollywoodfl #kayak #theoceanismyfavorite #goprohero7black #gopro @bogasup #meetmeatthebeach #hollywoodbroadwalk #ocean #beachlife #goodmorning @margaritaville_hollywood_beach #lifeisbetterinabikini @floridamantagirl #boardmeeting #mygym #savetheoceansdamnit #majesticseaflapflap
