Monmouth Shore

After our visit to Chessequake State Park I decided to eat dinner at the Drifthouse in a fancy resort by Seabright. The meal was lovely. However, they stuck us in an empty corner as if we were unsuitable clientele.

After dinner we made a short stop at Seven Presidents Park. I noticed an an area set aside for tern nesting. The wavy, wispy clouds were like spin sugar and as the sunset approached the highlights on the ocean picked up a blue and violet tints.

Beautiful skyscape and beach! The moon jellyfish is special.

Hi Sherry! I think it is Seven Presidents Park after the seven who spent some time at the resorts there along the Jersey shore. Your pictures are beautiful! Love, Cathy

  Thanks Cathy. Fixed it in all 30 places in files and online. I dropped a couple of presidents by accident. 🙂

What a beautiful shoreline. I was especially intrigued by the jelly. I’ve never seen anything like that one.

    Ah. These are common here. This one seemed completely translucent, without the cloverleafed design at the top that’s such a clear identifying mark. That threw me off.

      The sand on top hid the pattern.
