These are a few of my favorite pictures of "What the Tide Brought in" during "Michelle's Great Escape" to Barnegat Light, NJ.
Where it all began for me.... 206 Haslach Avenue. My Grandparents home - that my Grandpa built. "Dotter Builders" his business..... |
The workbench in the basement was the first thing I went to visit in his house after all these years it has been since I was in this house.......
Grandpa's workbench......
A Legacy, for sure.
Grandpa build a house, a home, a family.
He leaves behind a legacy like no other.

After a whirlwind "see the house where I grew up" then throw our stuff in the truck to head to Long Beach Island and my beloved "Old Barney" in Barnegat Light, NJ -- we were finally there!!!

This is the Shorehouse that my Grandpa built for family.
This is where I spent countless summers fishing with my Grandpa, crabbing, clamming, swimming, painting seashells...
The family memories made in these walls were priceless.
This shorehouse is sadly no longer in the family.
But it will forever be in my heart.

Grandpa's boat.....
The boat may be little, but it packs a ton of memories.
This dock --
Countless trips loading the boat in, and pulling it out.
The dock was one of the first places I went to take a picture of.
This is where summers both began, and ended.

The shorehouse that found me........
Still on 8th street, just like Grandpa's.
I can't wait to see it again next summer......
