Rich Amole: “Just behind the Asbury Park Casino is a ticket booth,  perhaps a place to purchase those passports to fun at the Casino Amusements.  The edge of the Carousel can be seen along with some games of chance back in the time when you could smell the popcorn cookin’ and that salty breeze blowin’ through all the entrances.”

This photograph is from 1980 and is by  Joe Maloney from the World Wide Web.

Regarding the image of the rowers, Bob Bowné said, “The guys in the boat were out on the ocean this morning, before the sun came up…rowing????  The air was 7 degrees, the water about 39 degrees, and the surf was downright treacherous….don’t know what they were up to, but I think they are CRAZY, LOL!????!!!!
