Found on my morning walk:  Monday’s newspaper (yesterday’s high winds “delivered” it one block down); 2 swinging storm doors (secured both); fresh salt air and natural vitamin D.
Chilly temperatures earlier, but less wind and bright sunshine will warm us through the day.
The “waves” in the sand verify the recent shift in wind direction.
Spring moisture arrives with the predominate south and southeast winds; keeping  it cooler (and damp!) by the ocean.
A light drizzle this morning for my walk. Heavier rain expected later 🙁
I took this amazing picture today during my morning walk, and posted it on Twitter. Decided to share it on my blog, too.
Incredible views and fresh salt air air motivate me to bundle up for the beach each day…plus cheaper than joining a gym 😉
Welcome to March!
Spring at the shore is typically a few degrees colder than on the mainland. And, there’s that “wee bit of dampness” in the air (must be why the Irish love the shore??)
Have a great weekend…
Warm sunshine and a rainbow in the clouds to greet me for my morning walk.
Yesterday’s storm left many “treasures” along the beach- sea glass, conch shells, and a plastic deck chair??
Enjoy the weekend!
Pictures from my walk along the beach yesterday.Â
Moderating temperatures and a bit more daylight after work hours provide motivation to get outside and enjoy the scenic views 🙂
The preferred and more typical sea shore snow storm.Â
Our public works department cleared the roads early this morning, and the sun is handling the mid-day melt.
Beautiful on the beach this morning. Shades of white, gray, and black- in contrast with the colors in the sky. More pictures posted on Twitter: http://twitter.com/AnnDelaneyBeach
Yes, the temperatures dropped, and winds are still gusting over 30 mph, but the bright sunshine was the deciding factor for a walk on the beach before work.
Bundled up, walking close to the dunes (to block the NW wind), and turning my face toward the sun…it wasn’t that bad 😉
I did not wear gloves to work today…an act of solidarity for those participating in the Polar Bear Plunge in Sea Isle City ;)  Brrrrrr!
As mentioned on Twitter, Fred’s Tavern in Stone Harbor is promoting a “Last Call” weekend prior to closing for renovations. The new and improved facility will re-open in early spring- serving both FOOD and drink. The package goods store will remain open during the project.
Hold on to your hats as you walk along the beach! Enjoy the weekend.
If you are coming to the beach for President’s weekend, bring several layers.
The sun is out and temperatures are heading in the right direction…but there is a definite “sea breeze”. The closer you are to the ocean, the more layers you will need!
Worth bundling up for the view. See you on the beach 😉
