Utsch’s Marina

Cape May, New Jersey

Today was a good time for all. Carl and Ricki’s boat has been repaired and is ready to move north.

The four of us took a cab into town. Lunch at the Ugly Mug was very good before taking a historical tour of the town on the red trolley. Much of the original town was destroyed by fire before being rebuilt during the Victorian era. The buildings are works of art with their ginger bread trim painted many colors.

Barb and I visited the local ACE Hardware store for some general supplies before returning to the boat.

Cape May claims to be the oldest vacation location in the US! This fact was told to me by our taxi driver ---- I’ll take his word considering the age of this town!
