Visit to Avalon, New Jersey

A couple months ago I visited the small town of Avalon, NJ, the location of my client’s summer home. As we drove through the tiny downtown, Dune Drive, the place was a winter ghost town. Businesses were closed until the spring or summer and most of the homes were unoccupied. The desolation felt a little eerie being fresh off an outbound bus from New York City and all… anyone who has experienced the anarchy of Port Authority could relate.

Not that I was expecting to be bombarded by a slew of young Philly socialites or the cast of Jersey Shore (a show I have never seen) but I did expect to see a little more liveliness. I guess I’ll have to come back next summer.

Well, if anyone is interested in seeing the cute little beach town of Avalon and greater Cape May County NOT during peak season here you go.
