Lucky for me, my nephew's a great guitarist and lends me his work.<br /><br />Hope you get to visit Weeki Wachee soon Claire! Wish I could go with you. :)<br /><br />Jessica, National Geographic actually did a special on the Weeki Wachee mermaids a few years ago, because business had fallen and they'd become somewhat endangered! Hope they don't fall victim to the economy too.<br /><br />Hope you get to write about it sometime too, Jules. They fascinate me too.Cate Mastershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01371792447604980848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8012664417591303836.post-66723581932728016002010-08-27T05:14:37.010-07:002010-08-27T05:14:37.010-07:00I have been fascinated by mermaids since I was a c...I have been fascinated by mermaids since I was a child. I remember being on vacation in Florida, and seeing the brochures for the mermaids, and wishing I could see them. But it wasn't meant to be. Some day I would like to write about it.
