It’s a good thing we blasted a big hole in the ozone layer, otherwise we wouldn’t have these spectacular out-of-season afternoons. 63 degrees? A day before December? In the northeast? It’s a gift!
We visited the boardwalk in Asbury Park. It got pretty busy as the afternoon progressed, but nothing like in July. 7-Year Old Daughter brought her scooter and I brought my skateboard. We cruised up and down the boardwalk. She yelled at me again about not having a helmet. I’m Mr. Bad Example.
3-Year Old Daughter is still too young for any mode of transport other than her two feet. She demanded equal time so I carried my skateboard.
Did you hear the cops finally busted Madame Marie
for tellin’ fortunes better than they do?
4th Of July, Asbury Park (Sandy)

Yes, there really was a Madam Marie.
Asbury Park was once the playground of Presidents but this is all that’s left. It’s okay. I like it just fine.
Exile on Pain Street 
You are such a kid at heart! How many kids can say they skateboard with thier dad? Memories they will never forget-pricelessMT
love it! didn’t know there really was a Madam Marie… cool, cool trivia!
It looks wonderful. And sounds like it was a great day. :¬)
MT: I am astonishingly immature. It’s a fact!Daisy: I wish I had taken a better pic. It’s actually a small kiosk on the boardwalk where she use to tell fortunes. That pic makes it look like some graffiti on an anonymous cement wall.Map: It all came together for one afternoon.
No work? no school?
You mean it’s not snowing already? I really was under the impression that Northern countries would be under snow already.
Is The Fastlane (I think that was the name) still in Asbury Park?
what special memories for your daughters!
fabulous
helmets are for losers… okay, losers with no scrapes, punctures, or drain bamage, but still…
Nurse: Actually, this took place on Sunday. I took a timeline liberty.Sid: That’s what’s so astounding! I should have hung up my skateboard months ago.Jeff: I do not know the Fastlane. Probably has something to do with having two kids. Poindexter: Welcome! Great memories for me, too.Nurse: I think you’re fabulous. But you’ve always known that.Gnu: Plus, they muss my hair.
Great shots. Whenever I think of Asbury Park I think of that song.
