Hi Paul…

I went to the Race of Gentlemen today in Wildwood, NJ.  (Cars and motorcycles race on the beach at Wildwood)

http://www.theraceofgentlemen.com

It was a visual FEAST!!

Thought you would enjoy a couple of my shots.

Maybe we can organize some races here on the O.G. Beach this summer…I am sure that the Camp Meeting would love it!!

Hee..hee…….

—Bob

Paul,

“So why? do the LG stands in Sea Girt have ramps??   Interesting.”

Bob

 

Editor’s note:   Bob,  I think the ramp is so the lifeguards can slide down and reach the beach  a split second earlier–like the firemen have the pole.

And why do they call that place Sea Girt?   What the Heck Avenue does “girt” mean?

Love the photo, by the way.  —Paul

Victorian dusting. By Bob Bowné

Tuesday, February 3, 2015.   Re-post.

 

Paul, Good morning.

I shoot the same things, over and over, but they always look a little different.

Snow on the beach….we got another dusting yesterday afternoon/evening.

Made for a pretty dawn this morning… Eleven degrees. Froze the locks and windows on my car!

Catch some sun for me ….put it in a bottle and throw it in the Ocean…maybe it will come my way.

Bob, reporting from Ocean Grove beachfront and Ocean Pathway.

We played this song yesterday   (2015)  by Nora Jones and Willie Nelson, but Lee Morgan, our resident music professor at the Blogfinger University, has a retro-idea.  This is what he says:

“The last words I uttered last night were “Baby It’s Cold Outside.”  No coincidence that my first words this morning were those same words. 

“In 1944, Frank Loesser penned a song entitled “Baby It’s Cold Outside.” The song is a duet between a man and a woman…

“The piece has been covered by dozens of artists over the years. In 1961 Ray Charles and Betty Carter came together and made this iconic recording. There is nothing I can say that will aid the  experience of carefully listening to their magic.” 

 

RAY CHARLES AND BETTY CARTER with a 54year old classic duet for the ages:

“Cross on the Auditorium floating in the late evening mist.” By Bob Bowné. Special to Blogfinger. Nov. 30, 2016. ©

“I dreamt we were standing
By the banks of the Thames
Where the cold grey waters ripple
In the misty morning light
Held a match to your cigarette
Watched the smoke curl in the mist
Your eyes, blue as the ocean between us
Smiling at me…”

THE  POGUES.  “Misty Morning, Albert Bridge.”   The Pogues were a Celtic punk band from London, popular in the 1980’s.
