After a brutal year of Covid-19 taking over everyone’s life and a harsh winter forcing people to stay indoors, the first sign of spring at the Jersey Shore was not taken for granted. Yesterday with temperatures reaching the mid-60s, some New Jersey residents headed down the shore to enjoy leisure activities on the beach. Some daring individuals ditched their winter coats for sports bras and shorts to catch a tan.
As the heat was having its moment at the shore, strangers conversed while laying down on the sand and others converted WFH (working from home) to WFB (working from the boardwalk).
