I had a close encounter over the weekend.

It's 4th of July weekend and chances are you're finding a spot on (or near) the water to cool off.

Yesterday, while fishing on my dad's boat, I was reminded to keep an eye for these things.

Jellyfish can sting. And it hurts. Luckily I've never been stung by one, however I've seen someone get stung and it does NOT look pleasant.

So if you're headed to the ocean, keep an eye out for these things!
