  • April will be better 🙂

    The snow is melting…and local businesses are starting to re-open for the season.

    Thursday

  • Quick Walk

    Quiet afternoon in work, so time for quick walk to check out the snow flurries…and the beach.

    Summary: windy, cold, and yes, snowy (visible in the lower picture- against the pine trees).   Nice views, though 😉

    P.S. Glad I walked after lunch. It’s 3:45pm and snowing like crazy!

  • Spring??

    So much for my winter wrap up posts and pictures.  As of 1pm, flurries in Avalon NJ  🙁

  • Sunday Sights

    A much nicer day than expected.  Sunny and mild so far.

    Proof of our roller coaster weather?  Outdoor furniture and snow shovels sharing space on shore house decks 😉

  • Summer Rentals

    Tis’ the season for newspaper articles and TV news segments regarding summer rentals along the Jersey shore.

    RentSighFacts for Avalon and Stone Harbor:

    1) The full season bookings (Memorial Day to Labor Day) are well ahead of recent years.

    2) The weekly rentals are strong, yet there are still plenty of great options available.

    3) We often add new inventory this time of year- for example: new owners decide to offer their property for rent.

    4) Connecting with a knowledgable local agent is important.  Web sites are informative, but it’s still best to talk with a live person before booking!

    Visit the Power Play web site:  http://www.powerplayrealty.com/rentals    And, I am here to help-  ann@anndelaney.com    609-967-7950

    Thanks!

  • Sea Glass Yoga?

    It was a good morning for treasure hunting along the north end beaches in Avalon (see picture of today’s haul of sea glass).

    A long beach walk provides the obvious exercise…plus the bonus of graceful squats and bends picking up, and then rinsing off pieces of sea glass.

    When I say “ugh”, I really mean “om” 😉

  • Snow Day

    In case you missed my pictures posted on Twitter yesterday:

    Snow + wind = serious snow drifts along the beach.  One even formed in the shape of a wave!

    P.S. As of this afternoon, much of the snow is already melted.
