  • Hot Enough??

    This was my view yesterday…what a perfect beach day 🙂

    Back to work today.  The excessive heat will be especially rough on our tenants checking out this morning, and those arriving later this afternoon (and of course the hard working cleaning crews in between!)

    Have a good weekend.

    P.S. Our on-line rental system is down.  If you have any questions regarding a rental property, please call 609-967-7950.  We hope to be back up soon.

  • Summer Holiday

    Did you enjoy the 4th?

    The weather cooperated with the crowds.  An early west wind turned to a more comfortable sea breeze just as I was ready to start my beach day 🙂

    In Stone Harbor, the life guards decorated their stands and boats, and organized activities for the kids.

    We watched the fireworks from 80th Street- it was like an IMAX event: Avalon’s first to our left; Stone Harbor’s overhead; and then North Wildwood’s as we walked home.  Nice!

  • Beach Clean Up

    Letter from  Leslie Weinberg, representative from United by Blue:

    On Saturday, July 14, the ocean-friendly brand of apparel, United By Blue, and its retail partner, Global Pursuit (262 96th Street), are hosting a beach cleanup in Stone Harbor, NJ  from 10 am to 1 pm. 
     
     
    We are currently trying to mobilize as many volunteers as possible and I was just wondering if you would be willing to promote our cleanup on your beach blog. 
     
     
    Volunteers just need to show up with helping hands, we provide them with gloves, bags, breakfast, water, sunscreen and even a few games and giveaways. 
     
     
    United By Blue is an ocean-friendly brand of apparel that removes a pound of trash from oceans and waterways for every product sold. Since our creation in May 2010, we’ve hosted over 80 cleanups in 18 states and picked up over 130,000 pounds of trash from oceans and waterways.
     
     
    Volunteers can sign up for the cleanup by visiting  http://www.unitedbyblue.com/cleanup/stoneharbor   They can direct questions to cleanup@unitedbyblue.com or 215-642-0693. 

  • Full Moon

    Full moon tonight.  This was my view from last night’s sunset walk along the beach.

    So many events scheduled for tomorrow: fireworks, live music, family activities, etc.  For the complete list, visit:  http://www.avalonboro.org/    and    http://www.stone-harbor.nj.us/default.asp  and Stone Harbor Chamber Chatter

    See you on the beach 🙂

  • Observations of Summer

    Random observations:

    The water is warm. The lights in the trees in downtown Avalon look so pretty at night.  The seating areas outside Bonnie’s Toppings and Tutto Gelatto in Stone Harbor are great for people watching as you enjoy your treats.  Restaurants and retail businesses are busy.  Already ample opportunities to check out unique (read: expensive) cars in town.  Same statement applies to breeds of dogs!

    Happy Summer!
