This is the last week for our vehicle beach permit-Â allowing me to take pictures on a crazy windy day without getting sand blasted!
Fellow year round residents will agree with me:  the howling wind gets to us more so than cold temperatures. This winter, we have been lucky with moderate conditions all around. But that doesn’t stop me from cringing when it sounds like our roof will blow off 😉

My sea glass collection increases this time of year.Â
In the winter months, I stay warm(er) by walking close to the dunes. Our early spring weather has me back along the water’s edge.
Tip: the shiny pieces of glass are easier to spot when they are wet; and on sunny days (they reflect the light differently than shells).
I may still have to remove my gloves to to retrieve and rinse off the glass, yet better when I don’t fear frostbite!
The birds and I had a front row view of the morning sunrise. After a 2 dreary days, it’s great to see the sun again.Â
Unfortunately, the weather forecast calls for a winter coat, hat, and gloves for my beach walks the next few days 😉
Tomorrow, March 25th, is the 14th annual Ocean Drive Marathon.

P.S. Road closures in Cape May and Wildwood, and north bound lane restrictions between North Wildwood through to Sea Isle City on Sunday morning. If you get stuck, at least get out of your car and cheer for the participants!
After a beautiful day yesterday, we are back in the fog. This surfer was dressed for the cool water temperatures, while people on the beach managed with bathing suits and shorts!
Moderate temperatures and calm winds yesterday.  A good day to get back on the water!
Unfortunately, the time of day that worked best for me was also dead low tide.Â
In the warmer months, I work around high tide to avoid the bugs.  Not a problem this time of year.Â
However, I mis-calculated water access from my usual launch site, and had to (carefully) drag my kayak across the bay muck. Good news- I didn’t sink in too far, or slip! Won’t do that again 😉
Interesting views at low tide- and a new perspective of bulkheads and boat slips. Don’t tell anyone, but this is the bridge I occasionally scoot under to the adjacent basin. The tide has to be high enough so I can float over the large pipe, low enough so I can duck under the upper pipes, and calm enough for me to maneuver through the maze of pilings!
By the way, I had company yesterday on the bay- a clammer on one of the mud flats along the main channel.
Now that’s dedication to a job!
Soupy skies again today. We are starting to mold a bit around the edges 😉
Actually, this  is very typical spring weather at the shore….we were just spoiled with a few unseasonably warm, sunny days!
