Yes,  I see your point. It looks right with the display on it. My grandparents house was  916 Barnegat Lane, on the lagoon between Bergen and the Bayhead line. I spent the summer of '69 there.  It was sold decades ago, though, although I still drive by now and then.

What a great location your grandparents had. I almost always jump off Rt 35 over to Barnegat Lane just to admire the homes back in there.  I drive my wife crazy wishing I could live there. When you drive over that little bridge on Bergen and look down the lagoons to the North and South you see the beautifully manicured yards and the old wooden skiffs and cruisers tied up to the docks. Very serene. Over the bridge to the left,  out to the point of Lagoon Rd South is my dream location (if only I were a multi-millionaire). Some day I'd like to get a part time job at the Bay Head Yacht Club working in the boat house . Some great looking historical buildings there. 

Must have really been something back in '69,  I'm sure you have great memories.

BTW I checked out your website, very cool. Your work has a great Mid Century Modern vibe to it. Before buying our bay home we lived up by the beach in a 1950's bungalow with a lot of MCM decor ..old knotty pine paneling, Heywood Wakefield furniture, Majestic lamps, Masketeer wall art , gravel and sand mosaics, Lava Lamps, you name it. Fun stuff.
