Ocean City, NJ has what is called "Night in Venice" once a year. I think it was developed as an elitist display of wealth. People will spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on expensive boats and summer homes on the bay and try to show how rich they are. This year Ocean City had to offer 100.00 dollars per contestant to sign up due to the high price of fuel. Life is really a paradox, what a laugh, they gave someone with possibly a half million dollar boat a hundred bucks so he could display how ostentatious he is.
Well, Louise and Millie (wife) were invited to 2 parties, we could only do the one because of the parking restrictions in those bay areas. I must say we had a blast. Our group were mostly mature adults but next door the group was much younger, I was very surprised at the reactions I got from them, a few came over to talk with me and one brave soul had to have his pictures with me.
It was a good thing I had convinced my wife to come with me, I drank 2 bottles of wine, got home about 2 AM and then was on my bike for a 45 mile bike ride at 8 AM.
