 Cape May is known for its fine restaurants and colorful Victorian homes. The beach cabanas add to the charm, too.Â
A worthwhile day trip- Â just 20 minutes south on the Garden State Parkway.

The Catamaran slips south of 122nd Street should be filled by this point of the season.
Another sign of the times-Â almost 1/3 of the slips are empty.
Likewise, we have a larger than average supply of rental properties available for the next few weeks.

 Barrier Island:  surrounded by water on all sides. For a toddler from Colorado, that’s very exciting. Â
For those of us who live here and see the ocean every day, it’s fun to experience it through their eyes.  Â
Â
 Enthusiasm for an early morning kayaking trip in the back bay 🙂
 Family still in town, and the schedule is busy!
The ocean temperature is very warm for this time of year…even “Nan” is willing to go in!

 Last night, we made the annual visit to the Wildwood boardwalk. Once a year is enough for me… it’s a relief to cross back over the bridge to our more low key island 🙂
The boardwalk was packed- a good sign for tourism at the Jersey Shore.
 A sunny beach day- an abstract concept for most of June!
The ocean is warmish. I prefer it warmer-ish, but the kids seem happy.
Enjoy the weekend.

Had to add this picture 🙂
There’s a special seashore wedding this week- ceremony in Beach Haven (you know…North Jersey :) and reception at the Stone Harbor Golf Club.   The wedding bus (aka “the party bus” per the brother in law in charge of refreshments) will drive family and friends back and forth.
Hoping for sunshine and minimum traffic along the Parkway!
A rainbow behind the clouds at sunrise – this was my view as I ate breakfast on the deck…

And this was my view as I walked along the beach.  It’s overcast now, but much better than rain!
People on vacation are determined to make the best of it…even though it’s been raining since, what March?
Yesterday looked hopeful, then heavy rain moved in.  A break later in the day, then a torrential downpour.  A beautiful double rainbow and deep puddles to entertain the kids rounded out the day!
Stay positive…tomorrow’s weather forecast calls for some SUNÂ 🙂
Quick- run to the beach…the sun is out!
Yes, it’s windy, but the sand is soaking wet, so it won’t blow around 🙂
We need this weather to improve SOON- there’s an important wedding next week :-) and family members are in town to celebrate.
 The seashore bride and groom. So very sweet 🙂
