There is still time.

Everyone who heads down the shore goes to the beach, gets something to eat on the boardwalk afterword and then hits the rides.

Not all rides are the same. There are rides for children, teen agers and adults. Some are calm and some make you scream your head off.

If you have skipped some of them this year, or in years past, there is enough time to go back and check them off your bucket list.
