The approximate distance from Times Square to the North-Eastern tip 0f Long Island is 100 miles, or 160 kilometers. Some time ago I explored this sea-washed lands end, known as Orient Point, while over looking the 1899 lighthouse by the same name.

Walking back, I noticed I was not alone!

Adventure to Primitive “Judges’s Shack” on the Dunes – IBSP, NJ

On August 26, 2020 By mvschulzeIn Adventure, Ambiance, Beach, Birds, Boats, Daytrip, Exploring, Hiking, Jersey Shore, New Jersey, Photography, serenity, Summer, Sunrise7 Comments

During this Pandemic Summer: a Sea Doo ride across Barnegat Bay at dawn to Island Beach State Park and the resident shore birds and ghosts of the 100 plus year old fishing shack still guarding the dunes overlooking the Atlantic Notes: The “Judge’s Shack” is the last remaining fishing shack on the ocean side, originally built over 100 years ago. It is about a mile south along the beach from the bay access path. The adventure started at sunrise, across Barnegat Bay. Except for the first image, the images are in chronological order. And yes, the sea gull in the 4th image, is YAWNING! Wake Up time!

Taking a mental break from face masks, self-quarantining and some worry about family (all coping well,) …here are some images from “York River Park,” near Williamsburg, Virginia – April 24, 2006, with my then amazing 10x optical zoom, stabilized, 2.1 Megapixel camera.
