  • Salt Air > Snow

    Although Avalon and Stone Harbor were in the path of a significant snow storm (well, enough for us to close the office yesterday…), the total accumulation was only about 4 inches.

    People often ask about snow on the beach.  Yes, it will cover the sand temporarily. But with the combination of tides, and salty air/sand- it doesn’t last long.

    I took this picture yesterday afternoon, shortly after the storm ended:

  • In Denial

    My view early this morning.  Guess it will be a bit different tomorrow??

    Will post snow pictures on Twitter  www.twitter.com/AnnDelaneyBeach 

    As long as Comcast cooperates (my Internet connection)…I will have access to the MLS and our rental site.  Feel free to email me sale/rental requests!

  • 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 😉
