Chester, New Jersey

Chester, New Jersey was having their annual Craft Show this past weekend.
Beside the fact that I am a sucker for a good craft show,
I really like this show because they feature a lot of crafters I don't see in my area.
Chester is about an hour north of the Jersey Shore,
a beautiful ride and we see a lot of farms and barns once we are in Chester.
The craft show was great, 
it was cloudy and the temperatures were in the low 60's,
my kinda' day!
After the show, we drove to Alstede Farm, 
a farm we are familiar with, only a few miles from the show.

If you love farms the way that I do, you will love this farm, it has everything.

There are a lot of beautiful, healthy farm animals...

you can feed if you are brave enough.

They also sell fresh, farm grown fruits and vegetables, and beautiful flowers.

It was a fun afternoon!
If you are ever in the area, stop by...you will enjoy every minute!

oh....and the town of Chester is adorable, all by itself.
Lots of really cute unique shops!

The Ships At The Shore

Most days when you visit the Point Pleasant inlet, it is barron, desolate...

the ships are out in the mighty ocean and this area is quiet,

except for the seagulls.

If you are lucky enough, you visit at a time when the boats are in, resting.

Fishing, is the livelihood of many men in this area!

The River Belle is used for dinner cruises and weddings.
