Invasion of the parking spot snatchers. Frustration prevails.

Saturday, Sept. 12, 2015.  A beautiful sunny temperate day resulted in a huge parking mess, with cars rolling at 9;30 am, and nary a parking space to be found.

Also there are yard sales all over town and an oyster festival in Asbury. 

Quote of the day on Sept. 7 at the CMA public meeting.  Rev. David Cotton: “When we all get to Heaven we will find a parking place.”

St. Peters-by-the-Sea Orchestra at 8:00 tonight.

DR. HOOK:      Put on your walking shoes.

    Pat Ralston- I walk to Asbury from Ocean Grove several times per week. I will be enjoying a libation at the Beer Garden with several others shortly. I live a block away from New Jersey Ave. and enjoy the convenience of the bridge.

    Your suggestion is unwelcoming at best. Many of the folks you are referring to actually live in Ocean Grove.

    Yes, and remember the people parking in the Grove…. then walking over the bridge. They do this so they don’t have to pay 3.00 an hour for parking in Asbury. This, isn’t fair to the people that live in the Grove, and because of the parking we are held hostage all summer.

    Something needs to be done. You can look at New Jersey ave, and watch the people walking down to the bridge. The bridge should be closed sometime on Friday and not re-opened until Monday morning.
