Early Saturday Morning
The view from my kayak early this morning. A thick mist hung over the calm bay.  I was only able to stop briefly to take this picture- had to “out paddle” the gnats!
Have a good weekend 🙂

Keeping Cool
With early morning temperatures close to 80 degrees, I decided to ditch the sneakers and modify my beach walk to a water’s edge walk.Cool ocean air battled the land breeze- creating a swirling mix of temperatures.Â
Stay cool- ideally with an umbrella, a beach chair, and the ocean nearby!

Summer Solstice
From my Twitter site  http://twitter.com/AnnDelaneyBeach :For those of us who go to bed early, the lingering dusk from Summer Solstice jolts a childhood memory of bedtime before darkness as punishment.
Happy Summer!

Free T-Shirt 🙂
http://timkerrcharities.org/ Are you available Saturday morning, July 3rd between 7- 9? Volunteers are needed at street ends (between 8th and 38th Streets) to prevent traffic from entering and/or crossing Avalon Avenue and First Avenue during the Islandman Triathlon.
There will be over 400 participants in this sold out event: a 1/4 mile ocean swim; the 12 mile closed course bike race (when you see the speeds, you will understand the need for closed roadways!); and the 5K boardwalk/beach run.
All volunteers receive a 2010 Islandman Triathlon t-shirt as a thank you 🙂
Please let me know if you can help…and your preferred location. Thanks!

Pedestrian Law
Posted on http://www.avalonboro.orgAs of April 1st, 2010 the revised pedestrian safety law has been put into effect. New Jersey Statute 39:4-36 states: “The driver of a vehicle must stop and stay stopped for a pedestrian crossing the roadway within a marked crosswalk or within any unmarked crosswalk at an intersection.†It is important to note that this revised law requires drivers to stop and stay stopped for pedestrians until they have exited the crosswalk.
New Jersey Statute 39:4-36 also states: “no pedestrian shall suddenly leave a curb or other place of safety and walk or run into the path of a vehicle which is so close that it is impossible for the driver to yield.â€
Confusion continues between pedestrians/drivers. Please be careful!

Saturday Cycle Begins
Summer Saturday routine: Up early. Sneakers & iPod for a beach walk. On my way down the block, I watch families pack up cars to check out of their rental properties. Hurry to work. Prepare for appointments and incoming tenants. Get everyone settled in (they will be thrilled with this weekend’s beach weather!) Saturday night- tenants out on decks enjoying the start of their vacation…and, the noise level in our neighborhood goes up a few notches 😉
No profound message…just a nice picture from a perfect beach day :)Â
