I Always Thought It Would Get Swept Out To Sea One Day Anyway
-
It was a landmark on the Jersey Shore, and now it's gone. Most recently the Dunes Boardwalk Cafe, it was a restaurant right on the beach, at the northern tip of the Ocean Grove boardwalk next to Asbury Park, it was really old -- probably the turn of the last century, and looked it -- and it was destroyed by fire. It also happened to be a place I used to drop by for lunch when it was a Perkins Pancake House and I worked a short walk away in Asbury Park. And I'm sad but also surprised the rickety place had lasted this long. Anyway, for you not in New Jersey, the topic is the evergreen Things That Aren't There Anymore. (Asbury Park Press)
