A week or so ago Pine Lodge at Cape Recife celebrated their 25th birthday. I was invited to the events of the day and snapped this pic of the resort from the first zipline platform.

Pier view of the Boardwalk
Looking at the Boardwalk Hotel from Shark Rock Pier
A dark Edward Hotel
It was sad going past the Edward Hotel the other night and seeing that the whole place is dark except for the lights along the front. I wonder what's going to happen to the place or is it a case of nobody really caring at the moment?
