Happy Earth Day Everyone

After finishing last week with plenty of “to-do’s” checked off our list (we had unheard of temps in the 60’s and the ground is nice and dry), yesterday we took the day off and went inland to Monmouth to visit the angora goats at Friend’s Folly Farm…and meet the two who are destined to be…

How do you get your daily exercise? I walk the beach most days in the Spring, Fall and Winter…in the summer, it’s just part of my daily commute to the office. When you leave the campground and walk right with the Bay to your left, the most prominent destination is Moose Point State Park. Covering…

Here’s the first draft of our new billboard. If you scroll down a post or two you’ll see the current one; what you can’t see is that the weather has taken a toll on the paint. The general rules of wisdom for a billboard are that they are read in 30 seconds or less, most…
