Less wind and more sun…yet still VERY cold. Â On the plus side? Â The moisture in the sand freezes in the winter- turning the soft sand by the dunes (my wind break!) into a more stable walking surface.
Hurry, Finish That Turkey!
Based on TV ads and music on the radio…it’s almost Christmas.
Avalon and Stone Harbor are happy to join in with numerous activities next week.
For a complete schedule, click here:  Visit Avalon NJ   and   Stone Harbor Chamber
On Friday, stop by the Power Play Realty office at 29th and Dune Drive. We are giving away Tim Kerr Run race t-shirts and Power Play Realty water bottles.
See you then!
Dune Grass Planting
I’ve written about my personal experience with dune grass planting as a child growing up on the island.  Needless to say, our finished product looked a bit different than the symmetrical rows pictured!
The dune grass planting is the final phase of our recent beach/dune restoration project.
To The Beach!
Hoping for a clear view of the NASA rocket launch tonight.  Follow  @NASA_Wallops  on Twitter for updates.  I will be live tweeting, too @anndelaneybeach
Launch window: Â 7:30pm to 9:30pm. Â Find an area with minimal artificial light (like the beach!) and look south.
P.S.  We were joined by quite a few others at Stone Harbor Point- ideal location for an unobstructed view.  Launch was at 8:15pm, and we watched the rocket  appear from across the inlet, veer over the ocean for several minutes…before fading away.  Cool!  Â
Monday Views
Roaring wind gusts, heavy rain, and then shades of soft pink and blue as the sky cleared. Â Busy weather morning!
A Private Retreat
Prestigious Bayberry Drive location- half a block to a wide beach, across from the recreation park, and within walking distance of downtown Avalon.
HUGE lot- 115′ X 100′.
See LINK for more details. Â Please share this information with friends looking to buy/build at the shore. Â I appreciate your referrals!












Before the Rain…
Nice long walk on the beach this morning. Â Guessing I will be skipping my beach walk tomorrow!
Thankfully, the weather should be just right for the Friday and Saturday activities in Avalon and Stone Harbor. Â Hope to see you around town!
