Just read the excerpt from The Lost and found it intriguing. Love the Jersey Shore. The salt water taffy is one of my favorite things.
I would love to visit the Jersey Shore someday….. It sounds like a lot of fun!
Wow…sounds fascinating. I live on the other coast (and was thrilled to meet you at the RT conference) but confess that I don’t get out to the beach much. You make me want to come to your side of the country and explore! Good luck on the new series…it sounds delicious, can’t wait to read it!
I used to live in New Jersey….definitely miss my summers at the beach…
Lucy the Elephant is very cool – hope to see her in person someday!
The warmth, I love summer!
Hey there! Wow, that all sounds so wonderful. This summer has been very different than most. Due to the heat we have all been inside, not doing the things that we would normally do this time of year. All that aside, we have fantastic festivals, state fairs and outside concerts. We also have wonderful walking trails. One of the best things about summer though, is no winter weather (although this is going too far!). Have a good one!
It has been over 12 years since I was last at the Jersey Shore… or any beach really… every summer we used to take trips to Wildwood… miss the boardwalk and the annoying tram cars…
I personally love sitting on the Manasquan side of the Boardwalk @ Pt. Pelasant and watching the parade of boats coming through the inlet.
Have never been to the Jersey shore, but do love the ocean–any kind of water, really. I need to be near it.
My favorite thing about summer is there isn’t any snow!
love the bikes!
I love going to the botanical gardens with my family. We bring footballs golf clubs & bubbles & picnic out on the grounds. I live near the falls also & that is always alot of fun. Your list sound like a good time.
If it weren’t for the TV show, I’d probably want to go there!
I love going barefoot and gardening. I grew up on a peninsula but live in the mountains now and miss the OCEAN!
Sounds like a great summer! I hope I can visit next year or the year after and see for myself. 🙂
Happy T13,
