I have been a Jersey Boy for 50+ years. My
early childhood had my parents and I visit Lavallette N.J. every year for two
weeks during the summer for some 15 years. I remember Seaside Heights was my favorite
hangout when I grew older. Just a long walk along the beach at
evening to check out the night time action.
For day trips with would go to
Long Branch, NJ from when I was very little to about 10. These are some old postcards
of the Jersey Shore towns and I'll get to post some photos I took when visiting
over the years.

Lavallette
This is where I spend two weeks in Aug. every year
for some 15 years from the 60's.
My parents rented the same house for many years
up to the early 70s.
That's when realtors took over the rentals and
handshake rentals were over.
