No Dogs allowed

Annapolis loves dogs.  The comunity there had many small parks all with plastic waste bags and trash containers.  Occasionally you would see a sign that reminded pet owners to pick up after their pet.  It seemed like most of the happy people in Annapolis owned pets.  Not so in New Jersey.  The boating community seems unhappy, in a hurry and very unfriendly.  I think its because they don't like dogs. We found a great little anchor spot just off the Toms River.  The city of Toms River is a historic port dating back to 1624.  The area we anchored in is just before that and is called Island Heights.  We dingyed to their city dingy dock and first thing we saw was a  sign that said, "  NO Dogs Allowed '.  Something is wrong with people that don't like dogs.  As we sit rocking on our boat and the sun is setting on this beautiful little harbor, I can't help but think the attitude must be related to the short summers. Well, global warming will fix them. Here's is the sunset at our anchorage, tonight.
