  • Southend Avalon NJ

    Walk through a beach path in the south end of Avalon. Obviously, the view of the beach and ocean will be the first attraction.  But it’s also worthwhile to turn around and appreciate the wide, natural dunes and spectacular homes.

    Like the high dune area, the green-scape in the south end is impressive.  And on an overcast day like today…we are grateful to see color!

  • Time to Buy?

    The zoning in Avalon NJ is very restrictive. The majority of properties east of Dune Drive are single family homes. 

    That’s what makes this condominium so unique.  Almost beach block, with 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and renovated inside and out.  $545,000 furnished.

    Thank you for your interest!

  • Another Foggy Day

    Our already moist air is stepping it up a notch with yet ANOTHER foggy day.

    The air-conditioning  has been running all week to manage the humidity.  And by the weekend…we might need heat??

  • Colors of the Shore

    Some days, our views are limited to shades of gray (this morning).

    And on others, we see a soft pink sky over the ocean (last evening).

    And, an occasional rainbow…

    And, a fiery sunset (also seen from the beach last night)…

  • Live Like a Tourist

    How lucky…to live on a beautiful island, and have easy access to other unique seaside communities.

    We spent a few hours in Cape May Point yesterday- walking from the sunken ship to the World War II bunker.  Returned to the street by way of the lighthouse so that we could see the charming cottages surrounded by trees. 

    We were definitely out numbered by the birders…almost as fun to watch as the actual birds!

    It was a good reminder to take advantage of our convenient location- and appreciate the local attractions that draw visitors from much farther away.

  • Free Facials

    Warm salt air, fog, and occasional rain…the makings of a spa day at the beach.

    Steady rain this morning for my walk.  Then bright sunshine.

    From my office window, it looks dark again over the bay.  Might be a challenging few days for outdoor activities!

  • Keeping Me Company

    During the summer months, the beach cleaning tractors keep me company during my morning walk. 

    Yesterday, the beach remained in it’s natural state- the tractors are officially retired for the 2011 season.

    Next up?  As of September 15th (Avalon) and October 1st (Stone Harbor) approved vehicles are permitted on the beach.

    Look both ways when entering from a beach path!

  • Sunny Monday

    Walked by several dedicated beach bums this morning. 

    All were bundled up- with their chairs facing the sun!

    Temperatures expected to be a bit warmer today; with another round of “summer” later this week 🙂
