    5 minute drive or a 5 minute walk to surf the home street - but the sandbars out front haven't been great since august.

    Thankfully by this summer it will all be over and I'll be a) beachside, b) warmer and c) out of delmarva.

    I thought the same thing, are you a resident of the bayshore? the lights on 36 can be hit or miss but they are generally all green at 5 am during the dp's

    i lived in middletown for my whole life, but now i moved to matawan with my girlfriend b/c it's a bit closer to both of our works. 36 is the worst road w/ lights i have ever driven on in my life. it's liek they time it so you miss every light. i don't think i've ever made more than 2 in a row in YEARS, no matter what time of day. when i go to lb/deal i go parkway just to avoid the lights

    When i used to live right outside philly, i would drive down after school (1:30) if there was swell, be in Brig by 230 to grab my **** and be in the water in AC by 3. Surf till dark, and head home that night for school the next morning, almost never missing a swell. Sucks in winter when it gets dark before 5! Now i go to ACCC and work in class around surfing:D

    Isn't summer the "off" season? or am i wrong ? I've noticed this in multiple posts... but i've always thought of summer as the off season for surfing.
