  • Atlantic City Air Show

    BlueAngelsLast night, we were treated to a quick preview of the annual Atlantic City Air Show: the Blue Angels flying overhead!

    It’s a great show- and worthwhile even if you just find a spot on the beach in Ventnor.

    I’ll be there Wednesday…and will Tweet from the beach 🙂

     

  • Saturday Sights

    I started my Saturday on the bay…and finished it on the beach.  With a crazy, busy work day in between!

  • Saying hello!

    Yes, that was me carrying a bottle of wine (unopened) on my morning beach walk.

    One of my faithful blog readers is here on vacation.  In previous years, she dropped off thoughtful gifts from her home state.

    This year, she suggested saying hello at the beach.  Her rental street is convenient to my walking turn around point, so it worked well for a brief hello (and she gave me a bottle from one of their local wineries).

    Such a nice start to the day 🙂

  • Kayaking

    First time out kayaking for 2015.  Finally the wind, tide, and my early morning schedule cooperated!

    A bit foggy…and had to keep moving to out run the gnats 😉  Good to be back on the bay.
