DOUBLE NOR'EASTER
Last weekend was spent doing a show in North Wildwood, NJ. Fourteen hundred miles and four days of travel.
Two days spent semi outside in one of the worst Nor'easters ever to hit the Jersey shore. The weekend was a lighthouse tour, state wide, and at least three of the lights were closed due to flooding. As can be seen in the one image of AngleSea, or North Wildwood, the back bay was the problem in most areas.
The amazing part about the photo of town is the telephone wires. I never noticed them before, but I guess when you have flooding, it's not so good to put them underground. A real cluttered image.
The inlet was a mess as can be see in the photo looking north east into the ocean, and this was at low tide.
Fortunately, I was in the gazebo which they covered with sheeting to stop the rain and wind. Rained most of Saturday and Sunday with winds approaching 50 mph. The crowd was down, understandably, about thirty percent. I thought that was pretty good, but their buying was off by fifty percent. So not so good! But could have been worse, at least the public could get to us.
Next show in Easton, Md mid Nov.
