In 1934, an Ocean Liner (SS Morro Castle), was traveling from Havana to New York when it caught fire and beached on the shores of Asbury Park. There were 137 deaths.
A handful of survivors washed up at the Zombie Walk in Asbury Park (October 2013)

By Paul Goldfinger, Editor @Blogfinger.
A little girl in a long red t -shirt is standing in front of Nagle’s clutching an ice cream. She seems a little bewildered by all the people, especially in a nighttime setting when she might normally be in bed; and then Mom leans over and scoops her up to safety. Another magic moment in Ocean Grove.

Beachfront Sunrise. By Paul Goldfinger. Ocean Grove. Blogfinger.net ©
Hi Paul:
Greetings from Manhattan. I was struck by your quietly beautiful photo, “Beachfront Sunrise,” (posted recently on Blogfinger), and your statement that you preferred sunrises to sunsets because “beginnings are happier than endings.”
Here is the poem, “Dawn,” from my 2008 collection, Father of Water.
Best wishes,
Charles Pierre
Dawn
By Charles Pierre
The first hint of morning on the ocean
is a trembling of shadows,
a dark hovering of muted tones
that moves with imperceptible pace,
a vanishing medium through which
the day brightens and widens,
the new light going on for miles and miles
in the shine of emerging surf.
BILL FRISELL. “Across the Universe.”
“Something great is coming…maybe tonight.”

“Ah, the apple trees,
Blossoms in the breeze,
That we walked among,
Lying in the hay,
Games we used to play,
While the rounds were sung,
Only yesterday, when the world was young.”
Night blossoms in the Grove remind me of you…..
