The Delaney’s welcomed yet another baby boy to our family over the weekend.
Nan and Pop are caring for the 18 month old BIG brother until the new parents and baby are discharged.
I appreciate the patience of my customers until I return to my regular work (and sleep!) schedule 😊
Out of the wind…facing the sun…not too bad!
When I leave my house (or office) for a walk along the beach, I often think I’m over dressed.
Yet once the brisk spring “breeze” greets me at the path…I’m grateful for my winter coat, hat, and gloves!
Welcome back!
Businesses re-open and property owners return to the island to prepare for the season.
And although I am still wearing my winter jacket for morning beach walks, I’m spotting flip flops, shorts, and light sweatshirts on others 😎
Yes, complying with the regulations for the required annual rental license can be time consuming.
Yet the recent tragedy at a rental house in Mexico reinforces the need to ensure the safety of our guests.
Avalon and Stone Harbor inspect for fire and safety violations, including smoke and carbon monoxide detectors (detectors must be less than 10 years old).
All properties offered for rent (even privately) must be inspected and licensed every year.
In case you missed it:
The Borough of Avalon will create a new entertainment and recreation park at 29th Street and the beach.
The old skate board park is being dismantled today in advance of the construction.
Completion of Surfside Park is expected by May 2019.

Sunshine…and people!
The hibernating island wakes for spring 😎
The nor’easter caused some additional beach erosion, but not more significant than past winter storms.
In sections where the high tide reached the dunes, the access paths will need to be repaired for safe access. Â In other areas along the beach, the snow by the dunes sits undisturbed (the high tide line is the edge of the snow).
The streets are already clear, and we are looking forward to an improved weather cycle for the weekend!

We were visiting with friends in Wildwood Crest last evening, and based on their home’s proximity to the bay, I asked if the area floods.
The owner (a long time Crest resident, and a boat captain) quickly corrected me: Â “We don’t have flooding, we have tides. Every day, there are two high tides, and two low tides. Â And some tides are just higher than others.”
Now that’s a great perspective 🙂

Beach Weather?
How cold is it? Â My Christmas cactus is seriously starting to bloom again!
Thankfully, temperatures closer to 60 degrees are forecasted for the next few days (subject to that chilly sea breeze of course).
