I was breaking a sweat during the last 1/2 hour of registration…and that was inside the Community Hall 😉

The revised maps for Cape May County are out and available to the municipalities for review. Â Still waiting for the information to be available on the official web site:Â http://www.region2coastal.com/sandy/table
So far, I see that they cleared some of the data- just waiting for the new information to be added.
4pm update- the maps are available on line. Â Enter your shore address in the box half way down on the page, click on “Get Details” to see the flood zone and proposed elevation requirements.

Over the last 2 years, our beaches took a beating from Irene, Sandy, and several Nor’easters. Â Thankfully, Avalon and Stone Harbor were already in line for a beach replenishment project. Â The June/July timing for Stone Harbor was challenging, however, the municipalities had no control over the schedule.
Now that the projects are complete, I thought it would be helpful to remember the “before” so we can better appreciate the work involved to replace/repair our beaches. Dune grass planting to stabilize the dunes will take place in the fall.

I’m so sad.
While driving to work this morning, I saw a public works crew on the center island at 56th Street- with tree roots in a tractor. Â I quickly turned around to ask what happened to “my tree”.
I posted about this tree in the past:  A Special Tree  Planted in memory of my father over 20 years ago.
Unfortunately, a woman ran into the tree yesterday afternoon, and her car landed upside down on Dune Drive. Â The Borough worker said she was okay- and I said “maybe the tree somehow saved her”. Â Then he suggested I plant a new tree. Â Good idea…
