Toms River, New Jersey, was/is a few miles east of the Navy base. It is about half way the base and the ocean. What attracted our little bunch to Toms River was the library. There was a library on base which was just a big room on the floor above the movie theater, but Toms River had a nice big library. We were a literate bunch of snobs and/or slobs.
Also, only about two blocks from the library was the above scene I took. To me, it is peaceful scene; an eye-pleaser. .But it was not an ear-pleaser the day I took it. These are seagoing vessels. The water the boats were floating on was a pathway to the ocean. As I was walking around aiming my camera, trying to get the best shot a man bounded out of one of the boats and told me to "get the fuck out of here!" Which I immediately did. I didn't think putting up an argument would be very healthy.
Also what is not shown right behind me is a deep fried crab sandwich stand, not that it matters.
