Ocean City NJ


This postcard was sent less than three months before I was born.
I may have been brought to the Ocean City NJ boardwalk the next summer.
My mother wasn't completely certain.
She said she had her hands full & they may have waited another year.
I was imprinted with a lively but polite boardwalk that had
no nightclubs, large amusement rides, or games, & only a couple of arcades.
It was a leisurely place, good for for strollers & parents with strollers.
& had little to frighten a baby.
Fitting, my birthday is this week.
