Took an hour each way on the subway, but we didn't care. Getting chocolate Italian ices on the trek back to the subway was tradition. We used to visit Brigantine before the AC casinos came in. My wife has a recipe from the daughter of the owner of Stahl’s knishes on Coney Island Ave. Taking the BMT from Prospect Park or Parkside train stations was my ride to Brighton Beach.For me there was nothing like looking out the window of the train as it neared the stop and seeing the beach. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our filters are different I believe there are 8 of them , had to replace ours a couple of years ago , has sand before that . Prefer the DE that I had at previous house.

It was great to see the crowds out and the performers entertaining everyone. We had lunch at Bubba Gump's The beach had a nice crowd out to. A little to cold for my tastes to be in the water at 69° but for the more hearty it looked like a lot of fun. We went to the beach today. Our water is 73. Still a little too cold for anything other then dipping our toes in. It was fairly busy but we found a nice spot. Then off to the local brew pub for lunch. Now I need a nap. LOL. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is you need a backwash line going to the sewer for a DE , my current pool doesn’t have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We now have ice again. Our baby robins should be leaving the nest next week. It is getting pretty crowded in there. They went from this on April 26, To this on May 1, To this today, May8. We have a Robins nest in our garage with three chicks in it. It's fun to watch the mama Robin flying back and forth with worms 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we were growing up my folks had an indoor pool and I always remember the backwash process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arzeena Posted May 8, 2021 #15887 Share Posted May 8, 2021 @George C I was looking at the Millenium cruises and saw your posts there. We are also thinking about July 3. First booked the June 5 sailing, but cancelled that one since we will be in Florida. Did you find a decent hotel in St Maarten? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My cousin and her husband did the round trip from Ontario in their 66 Belair 15 years ago. It would be a relationship tester for sure. I uses that’s why they call it Death Valley. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We couldn’t find any decent flights a couple of days before the cruise only flights leaving very early and changing planes so we are flying in the day of the cruise which I hate but have first class direct flight so we are not booking a hotel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
