A WORD OR TWO FROM ME
by Karen E. Jarosz ( Karen@lonekeep.com)
------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks to all of our sponsors! I have to apologize for the mix up. The last issue ws dated
August 6th and I mentioned the next issue as August 20th. Guess the heat was getting to
me! Sorry for any confusion. Well, I had two very exciting experiences recently. First,
last weekend I attended the Quick Chek Balloon Festival in Readington, NJ. Wow!! Nearly
100 balloons in the beautiful clear night sky. What a sight! Then just this morning right
in Bradley Beach at about 7 am Rich and I were lucky enought to catch a pod of dolphins
swimming by! It was one of the coolest things I ever saw! I have never been lucky enough
to see them until today! What a beautiful sight that was, too! Hope all of you get out
there and enjoy either a local happening or a natural sight while this great weather is
around! Just be careful of the rough waves because unfortunatly, I witnessed two scary
lifeguard rescues this week as well. God bless those lifeguards...
Until August 20th (really), go out and enjoy the day!
Karen
