    beachpath2 Now THAT was a perfect Memorial Day weekend at the shore (well…except the outcome of the Flyer’s games). 

    Local business owners were happy to see customers.  The ocean warmed up a bit, and the waves pleased the surfers.  Boats were launched and fishing strategies discussed.

    boardwalkWhen catching up with our neighbors and summer friends, can you guess the first topic of conversation?  The winter snow.  Everyone agreed… we deserve a great summer!

    The island will be fairly quiet for the next 2 weeks.  Once school ends, we will see the return of our summer property owners and tenants.  Welcome summer 2010 🙂

    boatingWhen I’m out kayaking, I like to observe life on “the other side of the island”- bay front homes.

    Yesterday, it was entertaining to paddle by a section of Sunset Drive in Stone Harbor.  With a mid-day high tide, rear decks and docks were filled with family members and friends. In this particular neighborhood, the small cottages sit close to one another- allowing conversations to flow easily from dock to dock.  An unofficial Memorial Day block party on the water.
