I ended up doing what I could though and still managed to get in a solid hour and 15 minutes of movement which is all I wanted.

Day number one . . . Check!

Believe me, I planned to take a bunch of pictures today for you, but it started raining fairly heavy as i got to the car.  In the meantime, i can link you to my dads flickr account which has pictures of Point Pleasant Beach on a sunny day.
