Asbury Park is a "cool" town,
with some great history and a bit of a hippie vibe.
Here at the Jersey Shore, Bruce does not need a last name.
The evolution of and attempts to revitalise Asbury Park have been ongoing.
A new mural project is underway on the boardwalk.
The "Wooden Walls" is a beautification project
created by Pau Ouintanajornet.
I found the rest of these murals, just around the corner from Pau's work,
in the old Casino right on the boardwalk!!
The old Casino has it's own history and story,
I hope to tell it soon and share some of the pictures I took
of the Casino itself.
Asbury Park has a history and beauty all it's own!
And there are some really awesome eateries here as well.
Today, we ate at Stella Marina Bar and Restaurant, right on the boardwalk,
with an amazing view of the ocean.
We both had pasta and our meals were delicious.
And when you look up, this is what you see...
how could you not love the Jersey Shore, in all it's glory.
We visited on June 20th, 2015
if you ever have the chance to visit, come, you won't be disappointed.

Debbie, I know Bruce well, but you stumped me with Tillie. Love the murals and I'm thinking I would love to make a wine bottle chandelier to hang over my outdoor table. I'll studying that picture! Have a great day! Bonnie

Sounds like my kinda place hippie vibes back in the days. I'm an old hippie girl sorta. Love the mermaid
Wow, fantastic murals!
pretty neat murals!
what a fun place and very colourful murals
it was the place to be, back in the day but it has lost it's way and has become a troubled town. lots of effort is being made to restore the entire town and i think it's working!!!
Great looking murals and such an interesting place! Wonderful post!
