Sunday July 3, 2005 was the day for the beach so Lucy
and Fred
arrived and joined Jane
in the search for the sun
as the clock showed we were 7 minutes ahead of wheels up time
so we stopped at Maidenhead Bagel and this server
took our order as Fred, Lucy and Jane
waited and this waiter
kept them amused until Fred, Lucy and Jane
got their bagels and we were on our way until we hit the traffic
and the people in the back of the car
didn't realize I was taking this self portrait
as we followed the sign to Point Pleasant Beach
and found our way to Bradshaw's Beach which we had visited in 2002
Suzanne got directions and quarters
and then the beach was there
as we came back from the parking meter and everyone
went past the facilities
to the beach where the life guards
were in charge as the girls sat
and Ben played
and Fred posed with this girl from flute camp
as we made a Poland Springs bucket
and the first of many air advertisements flew over Rachel's head
as Ben and I
enjoyed the scenery before we decided to walk along the boardwalk to look for lunch past this bench giving a philosophy
as we followed the woman with the hamsa ink
and saw the first greasy food
as Lucy, Jane and Fred marched along the boardwalk
past the greasiest spoon
until we settled on indoor eating and Jane studied the menu
as we got a medium cheese fries
and I had a Diet Snapple
and salad
as Jane brought back 2 hot dogs
one for Ben (which made him sick for 2 days)
and one for Jane
and Lucy had her burger
and Fred had her chicken fingers
as it took two tries to record the sausage and onions sub of the lady at the next table
even as I took this self portrait
and these pictures of Suzanne
Ben
Jane
Lucy
and Fred
before we went back to the boardwalk for games of chance. Ben shot
and made his second shot
and so Ben posed with his prize
as the carnival barkers watched
and then the whole gang tried the water gun races
with Suzanne having some trouble getting any action
as her tube was on empty
as the other tubes rose
and Fred won but the whole group posed with the barker
before we went to the photo booth and Lucy, Jane and Fred posed
and I was able to produce this photo strip
just like the professionals do.
After watching a few games involving cranes
we walked back down the boardwalk
and I went to feed the meter for the car
so that we could enjoy some more beach time
as the advertisements flew by
and Jane and Ben found their way to the ocean
even as a series of ads for a car dealer flew over
