The re-construction of the Avalon boardwalk is partially complete.
Nice, smooth boards for early morning bike rides or evening walks.
The light wood will eventually darken from the elements- ice cream drips and spilled soda!
The 26.2 mile run from Cape May to Sea Isle City is underway. Today’s weather is standard fare for this race (maybe because it’s scheduled for March??)
But, there is good news: the winds are from the south- giving the runners a bit of a push along the way; and the air temperature is 50 degrees, so [...]
The Borough of Stone Harbor reported the construction of 2 new bird watching platforms at the point. The first one is easy to find- follow the driveway path off the 123rd Street parking lot. It’s basically a nice sun deck positioned on top of a dune- with exceptional views of the ocean, bay, wetlands, and birds [...]

I definitely have spring [...]
I’ve commented on this before- selling real estate on the island for 25+ years, I can’t tell you how many home owners proclaim that their property is located “on the highest part of the island”. I’ve even heard my husband make the claim when talking with neighbors!
Well, the Borough of Stone Harbor provides supporting data [...]

Yes…snow showers on the first day of spring.
This is the time of year when we are turning on the outside water…rinsing off the layers of salt from our windows and deck furniture…and looking forward to more time outdoors. I should be more realistic about spring, but the warm sunny days give us so much hope.
It will [...]

Article in today’s Atlantic City Press regarding wildlife at the point. I haven’t seen the snowy owl yet…will keep looking!
