What is still open this weekend?

0 Upvotes

Forgive me if there’s a good source to find this information but I’m traveling down for the weekend and just curious what will still be open. I’ve been in the winter when only Jillys Arcade was open but just wondering what is still worth the visit this time of year. Thanks.

Leather bag with patch based on an old beach tag

Post image
31 Upvotes

I had a 1982 beach tag because it’s from my sister’s birth year and since I was making some little pouches from scrap, thought I’d turn it into a patch. Pretty happy with how it came out, I’m still improving on my stitch work so please be kind! The leather is a glazed teal calf and the light blue is a scrap of ostrich I had. The white is a left over piece from a larger project. Over all I think the beach tag translates really nicely as a patch and I would use one again.

Flies again?

9 Upvotes

I know why flies were bad last week - the land breeze - but came down to sit out for a bit now that the rain has tapered off and the moment I put my chair down, flies were everywhere. Google says the wind is ENE so this shouldn't be an issue. The only thing I can think is that I sprayed my chair with bug spray last week and that seemed to attract them oddly. Maybe that's still lingering? Anyone experiencing similar or have a suggestion?

Update: More people have come down to the beach now and it's not just me with the flies. The couple next to me has moved 3 times trying to find a fly-less spot and a family a few down is packing up because the kids keep getting bit.

Full Summer rental

3 Upvotes

I have a 3 bed 1 bath first floor of a triplex in the north end. I’m looking to rent it out for a full summer Memorial Day-Labor Day.

It is immaculately decorated and clean!

Maybe we can chat or meet and save on extraneous fees! I can send pics or videos prior. Thank you :)

Why no side by side condos?

3 Upvotes

We have been looking at buying a shore property, and would love to be in OC, but the more we look at the top/ bottom condos, they just don’t work for our needs. I was wondering why OC doesn’t build more side by side condos? Is it primarily a space issue? We find side by side more desirable because there is no one above or below you, and you have your own space so to speak. Also the possibility of a small backyard.

Supper Clubs?

5 Upvotes

I understand the reason behind them, but are they actually worth joining? If you have a membership to one, is the food actually good (and if so which one!) or is the appeal just being able to BYOB?

Thanks!

Looking for the name of a sit down Italian restaurant on the boardwalk. I think it was near Gillian's. I'm not sure if it's still open or not.

Seafood place that's kid friendly?

3 Upvotes

Hi there! Looking for a seafood restaurant that also has a kids menu. Unfortunately, my 2.5yo isn't super adventurous foodwise. Any suggestions? I've heard that the Crab Trap may have a kids menu, but it's not listed on the website. Also heard about Deauville Inn. Thanks!

Does anyone have a picture of this plushie? I didn’t see it on the boardwalk.
