Preparing For Irene!!!!

Yesterday Chuck and I spent the day preparing for Irene. You may be asking, how exactly did we prepare for this storm.......well, we took pictures of the preparations to share with you here.......


First, we floated here.......for most of the day!!!

After our exhausting day in the pool, we came here.......


Moonstruck, in Asbury Park


for an amazing (last) supper!!!!!


Strip Steak for me........


Surf and Turf for Chuck
The food was delicious!!!!


A Cheesecake Tart that we shared, it was heavenly!!!!


We had an outdoor table, on the third floor.....


and this was the view.......


a second view from our table.
Is this place not amazing!!!!!


After dinner we went for a walk here.......


We really wanted an ice cream, but we just could not do it....
after that huge meal and cheesecake!!!


No fireworks tonight due to the high wind (tears)
but we did not need them, we had a blast anyway!!!!!

That's how WE prepared for Irene!! If you need help or have any questions,
leave me a comment and I will try to help!!  (hahaha)

Oh you have had a good day - lucky you. That food looks delicious - nothing quite like a good dinner. Hope Irene doesn't bother you too much.

You are so funny, here I was thinking how neat it would be to see how people prepare for a hurricane.
I really like your day and it is just the most beautiful place I have ever seen and that pool is just beautiful.
Well, I can't wait to see more preparations. :)

I just had to come back.. my darling just wandered in from the bedroom (it's 8.30 am), interested to see what I was chuckling about.
I said "Debbie is showing her preparations for Hurricane Irene"... "oh yes", he says getting seriously interested, and does an 'over my shoulder' as I scroll down. Ha ha, now, that's our kind of preparations !!

Saun said...

Love how you prepared for Irene.

Adrienne said...

Great spirit! Here's hoping all those beautiful views and dear old land marks weather the storm well! Will be thinking of you!

Moonstruck is my absolutely favorite restaurant, has been practically since opening all those years ago in OG. We go all year but my birthday dinner is always there. Next week! :)
