The Tents of Ocean Grove-Wintertime

Hard to believe these wooden structures house entire families during the summers!

Snowstorm 2009, Ocean Grove, NJ

Our little town was hit along with the entire East Coast in one of the biggest blizzards in decades. They say we only had 18 inches but with snow drifts we measured some spots up to 3 feet!

More DC visitors

Reina, my youngest goddaughter, now 6 years old, with her mom and my dear friend Regina stop by on their trip home to DC from NYC. Although they arrived after dark, we bundled up and let the moon guide us to the Ocean while collecting seashells. It was a short, but very sweet visit.

More Marley!

Marley visists OG

Marley & Brooke make their first excursion to Ocean Grove! Dad and Debi join us and we settle in for some of the worst Thunderstorms in years! But we find a little sunshine by visiting the Mayor of Ocean Grove, aka B.J. The Bijan and to indulge in mani-pedis...Marley's first!

Christopher's Birthday in Ocean Grove

Christopher celebrates his Birthday in the Grove and after 24 hours with la familia Bowers/Wallick he gets why we love it here so much! He won't wait three years before the next visit!
