2008-11-26 Thread wernerapnj
Trying to be supportive and positive, a friend and I went to Stella Marina last night. At first appearances it looked closed, however there were a few vehicles parked outside and closer examination revealed that the door was indeed unlocked. Very nice atmosphere, although a bit dark, certainly

This has been a pretty great year for our city so far. Crime is down, big time. Lot's of great events, year round. Big improvements to the boardwalk area. For next year, I'd like to see: 1) More attention paid to the west side 2) A more attractive Main Street 3) A move away from a boardwalk
