Watching The Boats At The Inlet

 There are not too many places you can go and take fun or exciting pictures right from the car.
All of the pictures in Ocean Grove were taken from the car,
and you guys seem to enjoy those.
I can take pictures of the boats at the inlet from the car...
but I have shared those so many times.
We drove to the inlet on Saturday, just to "blow the stink off".
Are you familiar with that expression? I use to hear it all the time growing up.
We had dinner in the car and I took a few pictures of the pretty boats.

I will share a few that I may not have shared in the past.

This beautiful sailboat. 
We must have seen at least 75 boats coming and going,
mostly privately owned pleasure boats.

This sail boat was being towed in.

We saw two of these "cigarette"/race boats...

and the Parasail boat going out.
I always thought I would want to do this, not thinking it through.
This little boat goes out in to the ocean, with several people who are going to sail.
I get sea sick, and you sit on the boat while everyone takes their turn, rocking and rocking.
So thanks, but no thanks.

- I wanted freedom, open air and adventure, I found it on the sea -

Ocean Grove Part II

If you missed Part I and are interested in the history of this community,
you can read my first post here.     

These homes are very quaint, all with Victorian architecture...
They are very difficult to photograph because they are so close together.
 They all have cars parked in front of them, none have driveways, so parking is a premium.













" Little House"


- this was a super fun find -

- a sweet little park in the area -

and I fell in love with this truck, had it been red, I would have rang their doorbell.

- you can't buy happiness, but you can buy a truck -
