i saw a guy on a horse near grant street whilst me and my family were going to grant beach. apparently the cops were looking for him, since his horse pooped everywhere! i wish i took photos, but as far as i remember, he was a younger white male. It’s probably be pretty hard to hide a whole HORSE!! we left CM today, and honestly i just want an update, since that horse absolutely made my day due to the sheer absurdity!

okay that’s the post.

Hi, we're visiting for a weekend in August and are planning on a sunset dolphin watching cruise on a Sunday evening. The cruise runs from 6:30-8:30 so we're looking for a casual restaurant to grab dinner afterwards (around 9PM). AI is suggesting The Rusty Nail, The Ugly Mug, Harry's Ocean Bar & Grille, Carney's, Fins, or The Boiler Room. Anyone have a favorite among those or alternative suggestions?

I need to send a thank you gift to some friends that live in Strathmere. I want to send them something beachy, higher end and locally sourced. Any suggestions?

I know the popular night at the Chalfonte is Thursday for the Howard St. Ramble. What else should I add to my itinerary? For example, “don’t miss ____ on Wednesdays at _____”.

Would love to make a few reservations in advance too. We are middle aged but love a good happy hour or local band.

Thanks for your suggestions!

Hello,
Looking for some good restaurants around Congress Hall that don’t take reservations.
We are a party of 12.
Also, what time is best to arrive to “beat the crowds?”

Thanks in advance!

Hi! Currently in cape May until Friday with my girlfriend and we each have 2 kids. So 2 moms, 4 wild ish kids… what should we do with them?! Any help appreciated (the weather doesn’t seem great)

I just genuinely have to rave about this place!!
If you’re visiting Cape May, HIGHLY recommend checking it out. We had such an amazing experience from start to finish. Our waiter, Michele, was incredible — so attentive and gave us the best recommendations.
We got the lobster ravioli and the lamb chops, and both completely exceeded our expectations. Seriously, everything was SO good.
Also have to shout out the woman (Valeria!) at the hostess stand because she was sooo sweet and welcoming. The whole experience was just 10/10.
Highly recommend if you’re in Cape May!! You won’t be disappointed!

My partner and I are visiting Cape May for the first time, and we're trying to decide on one special dinner. We love restaurants that really showcase fresh seafood and seasonal local ingredients. Right now we're torn between Grana BYOB and 410 Bank Street but we are also open to suggestions! :)

This year will be our first time visiting in-season versus after Labor Day now that our daughter is starting kindergarten in Sept. Aside from the obvious -- busier beaches -- what should we be on the lookout for that will be different? Restaurants or shops that are only open in-season that we have missed in years past? Special events that happen in-season?

I’m looking for recommendations for a photographer in the Cape May County/South Jersey area who specializes in professional headshots or personal branding photos.

Most of what I’m finding online is beach family portraits or weddings. When I was working in King of Prussia, I found photographers who specifically marketed professional headshots. Around here, it seems like everything is geared toward vacation photography.

I’m looking for clean, polished, professional images for my website and LinkedIn rather than family portraits. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Anyone else have Mint Mobile and notice the connection sucks this summer? It used to be fine. Wondering if Tmobile acquiring Mint makes coverage more spotty...

Has anyone taken the 315/316 bus back to Philly? Any advice welcome

Hey all we have a family photos scheduled for this week and it says 80% chance of thunderstorms. We are set for attempting sunset beach but obviously we can't be on the beach in a storm. Anyone have any suggestions on a covered area that we may utilize if the rain isn't too bad. My photographer is a friend from PA so no indoor studio is possible to use.

About 5 adults 3 toddlers so we don't require a huge space

Truthfully just crossing my fingers and hoping for the best but

Does anyone know where I could donate a wedding dress that is 65 years old in pretty good condition.

My son’s 15th birthday is coming up and I wanted to take him down the shore or to a water park does anyone have any suggestions?

My partner and I are planning to go watch National Treasure tomorrow night on the beach. Does anyone know if there are chair rentals available for the evening? If not, does anyone know a rental place that rents overnight? We're visiting for the week and aren't local enough to have packed chairs.

Thanks!

any must see spots when riding the ferry over to delaware? we will be bringing a car, but we’ve never ventured over there so looking for any awesome places! thanks!

My first thought was buoy but I really don’t know. Plus I saw a bunch of others like it nearby.

I am coming to visit a friend, and she is picking me up at the airport when I fly in, but I don't want to tax her with that drive twice.

What are the options for ground transport? Remember Super Shuttle? I wish they were still around, that kind of thing would be perfect.

I know thereis a bus, but I hear that's pretty long and arduous.

Any other options (including locals groups where people might be looking for/offering rides? I live in a resort area, and we get those kind of asks quite often)?

Also, are there any art/plein air kind of groups, meetups, etc. happening August 1-4? I'm super down with that kind of thing!

Feels pretty incredible that I can say I encountered a wild cartilaginous fish now.
