cross my heart

DSCF0027



It's a big wooden cross stuck in the middle of beach sand, lest you forget that Ocean Grove is actually a Methodist townlette.

(I don't think that "townlette" is an actual word, but it's... a teensy town subset of Neptune Township.)

It is SO Methodist, in fact, that Ocean Grove was the source of a nationwide civil union controversy. (Speaking from my own experience and observations, the structure in question is NOT a religious place; it is a roof supported by four wall-corners--very shack-like and very open to the public.)

This is a great photo taken at an interesting angle. I didn't know your town was a Methodist haven.

Ah. Sorry for the confusion. No, Ocean Grove is a town near to Ocean Township.

I only call this blog "Ocean Township Daily Photo" to adhere to the strict City Daily Photo standards; I actually cover the entire county. So this Methodist town is close in proximity to the town in which I live... but it's not the same town.

It's just Townette. No 'L'

But a townlette with an L is like a towelette, and towelettes are eternally cute and useful, just as every small town aspires to be.

Hi Josy, thanks for clearing that up I am "new" to townships and townlettes.
