Mother Nature’s clean up

ReedsThe ocean has an efficient method of removing both natural and man-made debris. 

The higher than average tides (from the full moon) and a rough ocean deposited marsh reeds on the beach overnight.  The beach raking machines were out early to clear the sand for a busy beach weekend!

During my morning walk, I picked up trash that washed in with the reeds- a few plastic sports drink bottles and Mylar balloons (a wake up call on the waste produced with everyday products).  The Borough and individual efforts are similar to cleaning before company arrives…we are proud of our seashore community and want it seen in the best light!

Enjoy the weekend 🙂

Demolition at the Shore

demolitionBecause homes at the shore are situated close to one another, demolition has to be an exact science.  The common practice is to create a “doll house” by tearing down from within…fascinating to watch.

Back to Typical May

lifeguardstandWe were spoiled with summer like weather recently.  Today’s fog is more typical of May at the Jersey Shore.  The thick mist swirls around and you return soaking wet from a morning walk.

Excited to see the new addition to our beach this morning…a lifeguard stand!  Another sign of summer  🙂

Sand Castle- 1st of Season

sandcastle2Yesterday was a perfect beach day…and the start of a long weekend family gathering. 

The construction of a serious sand castle was on the list of things to do.  The 20 something nephews handled layout and design (their engineering background helps), and they permitted some cosmetic upgrades from other family members eager to help!

Enjoy the weekend 🙂
