Twin Lights in the hills near Sandy Hook

Asbury Park Convention Center--brought back memories of camping and boating shows when we lived in central New Jersey. Still not many people on the beach. Bruce Springsteen has tried to help revitalize this town but it doesn't look like it is working.

It was such a beautiful day on the ocean we decided to take the outside passage. This is Point Pleasant Beach where most shore people have visited.
