DREDGING IN TOWNSENDS INLET concludes this week, as the last of the sand complicating passage through the Townsends Inlet Bridge is removed and placed on Avalon's beaches.  More than 1.2 million cubic yards of sand have been placed on Avalon's north-end beaches.  As the project finishes, equipment in Avalon will be demobilized.   
 
MEANWHILE, STONE HARBOR is anticipating the start of their beach replenishment project on or about November 6th.  More than 500,000 cubic yards of sand will be placed on the borough's beaches.  Great Lakes Dredging will be mobilizing equipment there this week as work in Avalon winds down.  The 123rd Street parking lot will be closed this week due to the staging of equipment.  
 
BREAK OUT THE SWEATERS!  The past week has been delightful, although there's definitely been a chill in the evening air.  Clear, sunny days and crisp nights mean it truly feels like fall.  Despite the occasional chill, there are plenty of boaters, fisherman, golfers, and beach walkers enjoying the outdoors.  
 
SUNSET, THEN DINNER!  Even as sunlight dwindles and our days get shorter, there's still an upside:  Before-dinner sunsets!  With the sun setting before 5pm, we're often treated to a glorious fall sunset before sitting down to dinner.  Have you captured a photo of a beautiful fall sunset?  Please send it to me!  It just might appear here!
 
PLAN AHEAD: THANKSGIVING WEEKEND! Avalon's Festive Friday & Snowfest Saturday will be back, along with Stone Harbor's Island Holiday!  Stay tuned for details!
