Ocean Grove!!

There are so many reasons why we love Ocean Grove,
and why we visit here so often.
 
It is just the cutest seaside community you will ever see,
at least in New Jersey.
The vibe is amazing, infectious.
 
If you have never been, you have to see it, to feel it.
I recently wrote about Tent City in Ocean Grove...
just in case you missed that entry,
it's really worth taking a peak. Here's a link to that entry!
 
These images are from an evening walk on August 8, 2014.

 
 That's the ocean in the back drop...
 
This is the Fletcher Lake area of Ocean Grove

 That's the lake in the background!!

 The hubs...

 I'm not sure why we went solo here and did not use the tripod,

 and me!!

 This "Little House" was sandwiched in among...

 These huge...

 oceanfront,


 mansions!!

Where most parties are celebrated on the front lawn.
We saw so many that night!!

I love the little house, but would want it off a bit by itself--not with those big McMansions hovering over me. What a pretty area.

LeAnn said...

Oh, you do visit some beautiful areas. This looks like a great get away. I loved the small and large mansions. I especially love the pictures of the two of you. I would say they are priceless. Your cute smiles tell it all; you are enjoying the moments~
Blessings!!

Looks like a lovely and charming seaside town. Some really pretty homes and as always it's great to see you and the "hubs" enjoying yourselves.

You two look so happy! It's such a wonderful place. I would love to go there some time. By the way, you asked about the sign on the picket fence....Dreamkeepers is a miniature horse farm!

I just love Ocean Grove! My friend's grandmother owns an adorable B&B there and every bedroom has a different theme - you would love it!
