The great parking space hunt was in full force when I got home yesterday morning. My last weekend of quiet till September.
OT: Anyone been to the Jersey Shore yet
- Thread starter PSUPride1
- Start date
My entire family, including the Philly and Brooklyn chapters were in Atlantic County Thu-Sat but i guess we're not Bennies.
Can't be a Bennie if you live anywhere at the Shore.
The social media flash party thing just like last summer. It happened at beach towns in Mass and Maine too. The one in Maine was the 2nd in the last 2 weekends in the same small town.
Chaos in Long Branch, NJ: Curfew enacted after rowdy crowd takes over
A rowdy pop-up party overwhelmed Long Branch, NJ on Saturday, resulting in a massive police presence and an emergency curfew.

The why is because they see it on TV all last summer and know there are no consequences for bad behavior
I think people don't realize in the spring there can be a 10 degree or more difference in temp within a mile of the water depending on wind direction. NE to South and it can be a lot cooler. One day last week when I left the house it was 59, I went into town and it was 72.
They showed that on TV the other day when talking about this most recent spell of hot weather…one little strip from the beach in as far as maybe 71…not so much.
A mile? Sometimes it’s 20 yards. Last week the temps dropped 15 degrees the minute you stepped off the street and onto the beach
A few years ago, we went to Point P in May for rides. It was 71 or 72 on 35 and the bridge, but 54 by the time we parked in front of Jenks (and probably colder on the boardwalk). We all had to buy sweatshirts or jackets it was so damn cold.
True. I've got water on 3 sides so I'm screwed under almost any wind direction.
That’s trash not bennies. LolDidn't want to start a new thread. Beware, the bennies have arrived:
Cops use flash-bang, smoke, arrest 15 after NJ beach party brings 5,000 people
Police arrested more than a dozen people Saturday evening after nearly 5,000 revelers descended Long Branch, NJ, resulting in an emergency curfew.nj1015.com
I was on a train to Red Bank yesterday.(long story)
Anyhoo.. It was like a rowdy nightclub. They came in from Rahway or Elizabeth. I was so happy to get off before them.

Its going to be a big adjustment for me this summer in the new house. I went from a driveway that held 8-10 cars down to 1 car.
Hot tub no more....
I do have a nice private deck on the roof though so my tan game will be reaching new heights and new places never before seen. It will have to replace the hot tub for the evening meditation sessions.
Both of my daughters moved out and bought their own places so we downsized. The guy across the street from me made an offer that we couldn't refuse and at the same time found a place we love. 3 decks and unobstructed views of the wetlands. View from the deck
You concerned about bugs?Both of my daughters moved out and bought their own places so we downsized. The guy across the street from me made an offer that we couldn't refuse and at the same time found a place we love. 3 decks and unobstructed views of the wetlands. View from the deck
So what you're saying is you went from a 6,000 sq ft home to a 5,000 sq ft? 😊Both of my daughters moved out and bought their own places so we downsized. The guy across the street from me made an offer that we couldn't refuse and at the same time found a place we love. 3 decks and unobstructed views of the wetlands. View from the deck
I'm sure it will be a problem occasionally but from what everyone tells me that lives on the block, there is almost always a breeze so it keeps them at bay and since we are higher up they are less of a problem. Sunsets and bird watching have been really nice. Lots of ospreys and their catch of the day on the old telephone poles. Believe it or not that line of trees used to be a railroad that ran from Philly and the whole length of the island back in the day.
Saturday 96 in Philadelphia. Never hit 80 in Ocean City.
So off the beach, bay side, on the south part of the island? :)Both of my daughters moved out and bought their own places so we downsized.

I remembered last year there was a 20 degrees difference between beach and Rt 35 (1 block in) at Lavallette.
That’s what I meant…looking at that pic you posted the ocean is behind you, meaning you turn around and the Atlantic is that way.
I mean her bum looks… oh you mean the actual couch?
Maybe they are from West Virginia and they made it part of a bonfire after sunset?
Pop up party part 2 planned for Long Branch on June 19th. I love this comment from the mayor below, good luck trying to stop people from getting off the train as well as trying to shut down free speech.
"We have made contact with NJ Transit and will continue to do so to find a solution that does not call for letting thousands of people off a train at once, swelling our city to capacity limits."
"We are looking into legal action against social media platforms such as TikTok and Instagram that allow users to share these posts about the event," he added. "Lastly, we have contacted Governor Murphy's office and have asked for his help. This issue affects the entire Jersey Shore and we need his assistance to stop it."

Where everything used to take me 5 mins now takes 20. Working down here in the summer sucks. I get quite annoyed at the driving circus display which unfolds right in front of my eyes.
You learn quickly just how many idiots there are in this world. And wonder how they survived this long.
What gets me concerned is the way they speed around side streets with all the kids playing, bike riders, and those that had a few too many.
When I was working and getting back in town 1am - 2am, I'd go about 15mph once I crossed the bridge because you never knew when someone would just walk into the street without thinking to look.
