November Weather?
It couldn’t be a prettier day for November.
Warm sun and calm winds- just perfect.
Saw one of our year round neighbors as I walked off the beach this morning. Like me, he grew up in Avalon, and is grateful to live in our unique environment.Â
My neighbor talked about surfing later this afternoon (he’s still a surfer dude…with a responsible job on the side!). And I said I hope to kayak in the bay after work. We joked about the pressure to take advantage of the weather “one last time” before the arrival of winter.Â
Enjoy the day!

Flip Flops & Ice Scrapers
Noticed a mixed message on my front porch this morning – flip flops and a snow/ice scraper for the car.Â
We are ready for anything!
P.S. This is the last “treasure hunting” weekend on the island for 2010. Stone Harbor bulk trash pick up is on Monday.

Island Life
Higher than average tides this week.
The ocean reached the edge of most beach paths.Â
And, the bay covered the parking lot of the 53rd to 55th Street Bay Park in Avalon at mid-day.
A good salt water rinse 😉

Beach Hiking
Strong northwest winds again this morning.Â
Forced to choose between facing the cold wind by the water’s edge, or walking in the soft sand near the dunes.Â
It was definitely warmer by the dunes, and hey…it’s better exercise as I “climb” over the mounds of sand by each beach entrance. Glad I already transitioned to my winter hiking shoes 😉

Breeze turns to Wind
Remember that great summer breeze? After Labor Day it officially converts to “wind”.Â
How strong is the wind at the shore? Under that pile of sand is a bench at the edge of a beach path. It’s only November and just the top few slats are visible!  Hope someone remembers to dig it out by May 😉

Warm & Windy
The dunes partially blocked the wind for my morning walk, and the warm sun felt great.   Only minimal “sand blasting” of exposed skin!
Is your shore house ready for the colder weather? Â
Outside shower drained? Heat on? Foundation vents closed? Outside furniture stored or secured?
If you need suggestions for winterizing your property, I’m happy to help.
