Be sure to check out their site if you are looking for a car... So, it seems that Autumn is really here since the last few days have been cool enough to be sweater weather days! It is time for apple picking and pumpkin hunting. Be sure to check out Atlantic Farms off of the circle in Wall for a pumpkin, petting zoo, wagon rides and other goodies... There's lots to do in the upcoming weeks in the Shore area to help you enjoy the beautiful fall weather. Don't forget to send in any local happenings to be included in future issues. Remember, we publish the 1st and 3r Monday of each month now and are always looking for new and fun activities and sites to include.
