Brian’s best beach buoy or beach balls.  A. Park. Photo by Brian O’Reilly

This is a “just wondering” segment sent to us by Grover Brian O’Reilly reporting from A. Park.

He says, “Hi Paul:

During my morning constitutional through Asbury Park this morning I spotted a number of buoys washed up on the sand disturbingly adjacent to the boardwalk.

I was just wondering, “Did they land via a rogue way?  tsunami?  Mer-man or mer-maid prank?

“Most people may not know that The Shore does receive tsunamis, called meteotsunamis.”

However, does anyone have an explanation for Brian’s Asburian discovery?
