I didn’t plan it. However, Marc, Paula, and I ended up at what is tactfully described as a clothing optional beach. It is called Beach G (Gunnison Beach) (U.S. National Park Service) at Sandy Hook, New Jersey. It was nice there. No noisy children. After lounging around on the beach for a while we had a walk in the woods at Fisherman’s Beach. Late in the afternoon we stopped for dinner at Bahrs Landing in Highlands, NJ.
A day trip to New Jersey Botanical Garden at Skylands in August. I replaced the sky and changed the road to a dirt one in the first photograph.
We like to attend the annual Littoral Society Picnic. I go on a few of their trips during the year and admire the work that they do. Littoral News – Littoral​ Society has information on recent activities. Upcoming Events – Littoral​ Society This year we joined the seining group. We decided not to go on the bird or nature walk. A while after lunch we went on a few short walks before driving home.
Some mixed photographs from our visit to the Laurelwood Arboretum. I used AI to add part of the left leg to the frog.
I had fun with these flowers in Photoshop .
More landscapes. It was a short 1.3 mile walk around the lake and steam at the arboretum.
We took a friend with us when we visited Laurelwood Arboretum in Wayne, New Jersey in mid May. It was our first time there. The landscaping is an enchanting. And the garden is well maintained. This is the first of 4 posts from that day.
Before visiting the American Dream, we ate lunch at a small and little-used park. It is by Bashes Creek and the Hackensack River in Bergen County, New Jersey. Some information about the park is on this page Parks and Trails | New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority.
This little yellow warbler sang his heart out while we ate. In the last photograph the American Dream complex is in the background on the right.
