Monmouth University

---

Well for work Today Mark and I visited my buddy Jim at Monmouth U. He is the Exchange Admin there and showed us their network and around campus. The network setup is nothing short of geek heaven! Tons of servers, gig wireless access, Blackberry's as far as the eye could see........I kid.

He also brought us over to historic Wilson hall and gave us the nickel tour. The building is just amazing. It was used in the movie Annie as Daddy Warbucks mansion. Just a few of the amenities it had were indoor swimming pool, bowling alley, puppet theater, move theater, and much much more.

Afterwards Mark and I drove down to the beach. I hadn't seen it since they redeveloped it. I was amazed at the transformation. All the burnt out old buildings were gone and new stores and a thriving little community had taken its place. They rebuilt the boardwalk and added numerous restaurants facing the ocean. I am going to have to ring Ali back soon for a romantic evening. ofcourse I will need my wallet cause you can bet they will gouge you for the view alone.

All in all it was a great day.

Condo's Galore!
Condo's as far as the eye can see. and don't forget specialty stores and boutiques. I gather a coffee goes for about 25 bucks.
