Hi, Folks,

You can imagine the disappointment of this juvenile river otter when it realized that it hadn’t met its hero, Flipper.  It was only a big chunk of driftwood in the American River that seemed to be so dolphin-like!  Rest assured that the young otter’s disappointment was brief, and that its playful nature swiftly returned.  It was soon cavorting about, seemingly playing tag with its imaginary new friend.

Here’s hoping any disappointments you experience today are quickly replaced by an awareness of some fun that’s left to be had in your day.
