Summer Rentals

Our 2012 rental season is off to a great start.  Tenants are booking early to secure just the right spot for their shore vacation.

If you or your friends are considering a summer rental on the island, now is the ideal time to review the options:  http://www.powerplayrealty.com/rentals

Or, contact me with your requirements, and I will forward my suggestions.

An experienced agent KNOWS the property, location, and owner…and can provide additional feedback to make sure it’s a good fit.

Thanks…I appreciate the business!  ann@anndelaney.com

Wednesday Sun

There was limited sun yesterday- only an hour or so at sunrise.  Glad  I was on the beach to appreciate the views! 

Today- bright sunshine.  Looking forward to a busy weekend!

Full Moon

This picture was taken last night. A beautiful view from the beach.

Tonight is the actual full moon.  With the moon rise at 5:34pm, and sunset at 5:25pm, it should be an especially colorful sky.

So, BIG plans for tonight.  Dinner at the beach…which means sandwiches from Wawa in our Jeep 😉

Sunny Monday

Chilly start for our Monday- yet temperatures are already close to 50 degrees. 

Noticing the earlier sunrises (have to really hurry out the door for my beach walk) and day light after work.  It makes such a difference…feels like spring is almost here.

Weather

For a TRUE weather forecast at the beach, start with the temperature on the outside thermometer.  Subtract 10 degrees if there is a sustained northwest wind.  Add 5 back if there is sunshine and the dunes are blocking the wind.  Subtract 20 degrees if the wind is off the ocean- the dampness factor!

I often feel “over dressed” as I leave the house…then grateful for the extra layers once I am on the beach.

Last tip- if you walk fast and stay distracted by the views…you will feel warm(ish) even on the worst day 🙂

My View

It never gets old.  As I walk down my block toward the beach, I am excited to see the sky and the sun over the ocean.  It really does look different to me each day…and I’m grateful for an outlet to share “my views”.  Have a great weekend!
