Belmar Rising

Strikin' a pose on Belmar's new boardwalk. Beautifully Instagrammed ;)

 On Sunday, we met in Belmar to celebrate my birthday with family and have dinner at Mr. Shrimp.  It was the end of Restaurant Week at the Jersey Shore, where the price fixed menus are three courses for $20.13.

 As you can see, most of the boardwalk is completed. They're still asking everyone to stay off of it for now, but I couldn't resist this photo op ;)

The material is different from the old (gray, composite) boardwalk. This one appears to look like wood, but is not. Mom said that she heard it is supposed to be heat-resistant, so that when you're walking barefoot, you can tolerate it. 

We'll see about that this summer.

 

 

Trenton found LOTS of stuff under the boardwalk. He wanted to use the nails to build his new clubhouse this summer. The snail shell still had a snail in it!
