I wonder how many people are freaking out because facebook is down right now.
had a GREAT weekend in Wildwood once again for the Race of Gentlemen. Lots of new friends and met up with some old ones.
HOPEFULLY next year we will have a slot for the band to play.
COVID hit that area pretty hard it seems. What would normally be open until another week or so is closed. Once the races pulled out (it goes by the tide for Sundays) in the afternoon (around 5 ish) all the boardwalk shops starting closing up and the diner attached to the hotel we stay at wasn't even open at all. Not closed forever, but early for the winter. Several motels were toast. NO credit or debit cards this week and I'm going to assume it was because they were packing up and prepping to call it a day until next year.
Stopped to hang with Lucy the Elephant and get a T-shirt and that too was closed, but for renovations so that's kind of a good thing.
What I did not enjoy was getting a call from my friend who was left sitting in a chair on the beach, alone and too drunk to get up. 1AM - no one wanted to help her and her friends who she came with ignored her call. So of course I'm the good friend. They were mad enough at her that they left yesterday, a day early. Starting to get tired of this "good friend" shit. It's never reciprocal.
But all in all, TROG is always a good time.
