Head for lunch....some how the back of the line gets in front of the line....go figure...:crazy: Get to lunch....Nice location and beautiful weather... Off to Cape May Point.. Beautiful fall colors, even for South Jersey. Time to walk on the beach and climb the 199 steps to the top of the light house. Off to Stone Harbor for dinner. A room to our selves, well the balcony anyway... Fall Colours, Great Roads, Good Friends, You just had to be there to get the full effect. Then it's off to home...
