Sun + Sand

The Jersey Shore is one of my favorite places in the whole entire world. Growing up so close to the beach, I've always had a sort of bewildered familiarity with the ocean. The sand and the waves know me so well and I know them yet they are still shrouded in mystery. So vast, so powerful. This was my first trip down the shore of the season. I usually like coming when it's colder, darker, and there are less people but yesterday's weather was too perfect to not make the short trip to the coast.

Abandoned Seashore

"So that the monotonous fall of the waves on the beach, which for the most part beat a measured and soothing tattoo to her thoughts seemed consolingly to repeat over and over again..." Virginia Woolf

It's a beautiful thing to get away for a few days, visit family, share lots of laughs, make some great food, and relax. Despite the crowded beaches and annoying teeny boppers gallivanting around on the boardwalk, this place will always have a sense of home for me.
