  • Do You Rent Your Shore House?

    RentSignAvalon and Stone Harbor require the registration of all rental properties (even if rented privately, or on a year round basis).

    After the paperwork is submitted with the fee, the licensing department schedules an inspection.

    Please review the Borough of Avalon and Borough of Stone Harbor web sites for additional information regarding the requirements.

    I am happy to answer any questions you may have regarding the process.  ann@anndelaney.com

     

     

  • $21.00

    For $21 per person, our island beaches are groomed daily, trash and recycling is picked up, and well trained lifeguards keep us safe. Plus, we are welcome to enjoy Avalon and Stone Harbor beaches with the same tag. A bargain.

    The majority of my beach time is during non-tag hours: early morning and evening walks.  And, as residents, we pay our fair share in property taxes.  Yet, I understand the purpose of the revenue, and purchase a handful of tags each season for family and guests.

    Excited to pin these on my beach bag for summer 2014!

  • 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!

  • Good News

    I will ignore the crazy weather forecast, and focus instead on warmer days ahead.

    There is a sign in the window of the Concord Cafe in Avalon- Opening March 7th.   Marabella’s in Stone Harbor and Pudgie Pelican in Avalon are now open.  “Opening soon” signs appearing at other businesses as well.

    Next weekend is Daylight Savings (March 9th) – more light for walks after work.

    The following weekend is the annual Stone Harbor Shiver (polar plunge)- Saturday, March 15th.   Click here for a link to the Facebook page

    In the meantime, I will look forward to beach walks with fewer bulky layers 😉
