It is really weird. There was a kind of 'maintain radio silence'
about it.
But the event itself was wonderful and not hurt by it.
The only loser was Asbury Park in that the town missed the chance to
brag about it.
It's like there's a disconnect between what's really great about the

Holy crap! Was there a sale on that carpet? I've been trying to dig

Hey all,
Of my many fun projects, one is collecting information about the

This past summer and friend and I went to Cookman for drinks. Were
biking home very late and about 3 sheets to the wind.
We passed a house with a garage behind it. The garage door was open
and on the lawn were about 20 or 30 bikes. A woman on the lawn was

I see Purple Martins are supposed to be in NJ. I've never seen a
purple martin house in Asbury though.
Has anyone been able to attract them?

I was thinking about Trader Joe's and Whole Foods and I remembered an
article I read about NYC real estate in up and coming neighborhoods.
It said that when prospective buyers balked at the lack of quality
food markets the deal could still be sealed if Fresh Direct served the
neighborhood.

The tree is beautiful. It made me giddy. It was freezing in there
though. I wish the bar had hot toddys or they had those big
restaurant heaters.
Still my husband and I had a few beers, chatted with some real nice

So we arrive in Asbury on Friday afternoon and our gate was open and

I love Tapitia. It is my favorite inexpensive restaurant in Asbury Park.
I love the oysters with ranchera sauce, the ceviche, the gorditas...
The only thing I didn't like about Tapitia was the lack of Margarita.

I can't state this emphatically enough. My husband and I bought our
