A stroll after dinner is now in the dark.
And because the “critters” are active at that time of night, the best place to walk is in the street (the bike path is ideal).
Thankfully there are only a few cars on the road mid-week – so not a safety issue. In fact, wondering if the street [...]
In the fall, the sunsets at the shore are especially beautiful. It can look like huge a fireball over the bay.
For those of us who don’t live on the bay, we walk to find open viewing areas to the western sky.
Stone Harbor Point is a great spot- the birding platforms provide an amazing 360 degree [...]
During the past 30 days, 23 properties SOLD(settlement) in Avalon and Stone Harbor. The number of settlements each month has remained consistent since late spring…and it’s a huge improvement over our Fall 2008 market!
The selling prices range from $250,000 (for an efficiency condo on on 96th Street) to $5,100,000 (for a custom bay front home on [...]
Sad…to be wearing jeans and a sweatshirt for my walks the past few days.
I’ve seen a few hardy souls bundled up in their beach chairs determined to get some sun!
It’s not over yet- I know the temperatures will improve before we officially store our beach gear for the season. I’m counting on it!
Busy weekend in the Wildwoods.
The popular Irish Festival takes over several blocks in North Wildwood- ironically, near the bars!
On the boardwalk- the Classic Car Show and Auction. Hundreds of vintage cars on display from North Wildwood down to the Convention Center. The long walk to admire the cars will justify the boardwalk snacks along the [...]

According to the Borough of Stone Harbor web site: the beach replenishment project for 98th through 111th Streets has been rescheduled for mid-October. The set up and survey work will start on Sunday, October 18th; with pumping to follow on Friday, October 23rd.
The dredge is in position in the inlet between Stone Harbor and North Wildwood- pumping sand on the North [...]
It’s that time of year…CLOSED signs in the windows of our favorite businesses.
Springer’s and Kohler’s closed last week (I’m all set with cinnamon buns in the freezer for Christmas breakfast). And this was the final weekend for Mack’s Pizza. The owner had a wide grin as he said “see you next year”- he is looking forward to the winter [...]

Perfect weather all weekend for the annual Wings & Water Festival. Events continue through today in Avalon, Stone Harbor, and Middle Township.
Just like the barrier islands along the Jersey Shore, the islands of Hawaii each have their own distinct character.
Oahu has freeways, high rises, congestion, and rush hour…along with rural areas of beautiful mountains and secluded beaches.
Living on a low key island here, the busy atmosphere of Oahu was not for me. Glad to see the landmarks [...]
