After some catching up with work and life stuff, finally got around to doing my photos…

The kayaks are patiently waiting our return from Ocean City…

The one legged Blue Heron doesn’t look as patient.

Our hotel. Next to the top floor. I enjoy being at the beach, in a room with a view.

What our hotel use to look like in the 60s. (Postcard found on line)

Biker/First Responder bike run for 9/11. This is at 22nd street and went all the way back to 28th and then down, I’m guessing to 9th street. They rode the boardwalk to the Fireman’s Memorial, down just past Division Street where there was a memorial service.

The 9/11 memorial. A piece of the World Trade Center.

Entrance to the boardwalk.

Natty Boh and the UTZ girl?

What can you say about a guy that paints himself gold and makes noises like he has a chirping bird stuck in his throat??

Old water tower at sunset.

New, just getting painted water tower.

The view – bay to the left, ocean to the right.

I’m still waiting to see that green flash I heard about…

Took a road trip to Indian Beach, North Carolina the other day. On the way we stopped at an old mill, c1700s. Nice.

Too bad it was closed for the day – would like to see the inside workings.
