Saturday Critters #610

 Friday we took a ride to Georgian Court University.
Only a 15 minute drive from home, I have heard and read that the university has gorgeous gardens, 
breathtaking architecture, luxurious grounds and statues. 
Camera in hand for a fun adventure, the campus is really exceptionally beautiful!
They have Deer too, a lot of Deer...I saw several Bucks, Doe and 4 Fawns.










I will share the pictures of the campus on Monday.

Erin...Stirs Things Up

 It was all anyone could talk about... 
Hurricane Erin
Local weather reports said the storm would not impact our weather, no direct hit to land was predicted.
It was widely reported that the storm would impact the coastal areas along its path. 
Erin delivered tropical storm conditions to our oceans, heavy surf, rip currents and flooding 
up and down the Jersey Shore. 

It never rained on Thursday, the sky was consumed with clouds. 
After dinner we took a drive to look at our local beaches and to see how they were holding up.


- the ocean is angry -


- 14 foot waves -


- and high wind -

The Red Flags are flying at all the beaches.
No swimming, no surfing, all entrances to the beaches were gated and locked.

It was so windy and cold but we enjoyed watching the waves and talking with the locals.

This was the view as we drove home...

Erin has moved on and the sun is shining today.
