Tuesday, August 17th 2021 – Later the same day. Taken near 50th street at beach 6 in the evening.
Wednesday, August 18th, 2021 – Looking west along the beach 2 boardwalk over the lunch hour.
Friday, August 20th, 2021 – A crazy busy Friday looking east from the Beach 2 boardwalk. An awesome day at the beach!
