Summertime is my favorite time of the year and we live in the most beautiful place. I know, several of you will say, "What" Sue, yes, I love living here and in Ocean County.
There is a recent article by Vacation Idea and in it they list “23 Best Places to Visit in New Jersey” and we celebrate because five of those BEST places are located right here in Ocean and Monmouth Counties.
Island Beach State Park will host its fall beach grass planting event next month to help stabilize the dunes which are the primary defense against storms and powerful ocean surges.
A fun fact that many people don't know about me is that I love pelicans. Believe it or not, I collect pelican paintings, sculptures, and other pelican memorabilia. My love for the bird started when I was living on the beaches of Carolina. I can't really pinpoint why I like them so much, I just think they are unique and that they live a sweet beach life. Pelicans are definitely my spirit animal!
