First Day of Summer 2013, Jersey Shore Style.

Photos below, Ship Bottom, Long Beach Island, New Jersey, Labor Day. 2012. I always go to the shore between 2pm-7pm.

I hope Sandy did not take my shore away.  I have not been there yet.

I will keep you posted.

Enjoy the tunes. I did.

Philadelphia’s First Heat Wave Of 2013, That includes South Jersey too. I reside 10 miles east of the City.  My AC is leaking freon.  So, it is the fan tonight.  Woo is me.  Maybe cruise down the shore, Ship Bottom, Long Beach Island this weekend. It might be cooler down there. But it all depends on which way the wind direction is.

The Old Farmers Almanac

May 29-31: Sunny, hot.

Summer will be slightly warmer and drier than normal, with the hottest periods in mid- to late June, mid- and late July, and mid-August. The strongest threat of a tropical storm will be in early June.

 My Fox Philly Weather

PHILADELPHIA – Day 3 of the heat wave across the region Friday along with unhealthy air quality for sensitive groups. Temperatures this morning start near 70 degrees and warm into the low 90s.
Below: Me in the Logan Circle, Swann Fountain on a previous hot summer day. As a young child, I use to ride the El to Center City with a group of friends and to the Fountain we would cool off.

New Jersey: Stronger than the Storm? We shall see, it is still up for debate, Christie.  Not all of the shore’s coast line has been replenished from Super Storm Sandy.

My personal photos of my last trip to the shore, Ship Bottom, Long Beach Island, New Jersey.  Labor Day weekend 2012. That is what we call it here the shore not the beach. It has been my childhood’s destination for the past 5 decades.  Yes, do the Math.

I always go to shore in the PM so I do not have to pay to get on the beach. But,  LBI is laid back. No buses over the causeway bridge. It is like you have a private beach.  Hey, Christie, can you ask your friend Obama if he can cut another check for a free shore passes this year for all the Jersey shore visitors for 2013? Since you gave Obama that photo-op after Super Storm Sandy right before the Presidential election 2012.  We New Jersey residents will never forget.
