Getting In The Last Little Bit of Summer

The rain is falling lightly here in Elizabeth. Of course it is, it is a long holiday weekend.

Thankfully, I used a little comp time yesterday and my old pal Mike Markowitz and I hopped in the old Chevy and hit Routes 1&9 to the Shore. (By the way, here is the last little bit of journalism I did with Mike over the summer.)

There was only regular traffic all the way down to the Highlands. And funny enough, the sun came out as soon as we crossed the Raritan River.

If you ever down in that area stop by Off The Hook. What a fine meal we had there in the sun looking at the sea. And then it was only a few minutes drive the beautiful beaches of Sandy Hook.

After the beach, do as we did, and enjoy a cocktail at The Sea Gulls' Nest.

Let's just keep trying to get as much summer in as possible.
