Monday’s high temperatures and humidity hit and it was the perfect time for a boat ride for one crew.
Here they are on the Shrewsbury River, overlooking Rumson’s West Park section and Gunning Island.
Take a look and reflect on “what a wonderful world” it truly is in the Rumson-Fair Haven area.
Happy summer!

Well, the Fair Haven Police Department’s National Night Out is Tuesday.
It’s a night when people in the community gather and get to know the police and their job better. It’s also a night for mixing, mingling and a little fun at the expense of, well, a little bit of dignity — like a dunk tank.
At Fair Haven’s National Night Out in 2012, Mayor Ben Lucarelli got a good soaking. He was a good sport.
So, in honor of all good dunkings to come at this year’s event on Tuesday, the Retro Pic of the Day takes a look back at that moment when the esteemed mayor went down — for a major dunk.
Who’s next?

It’s that time of the year — time to learn about law enforcement and emergency response in a festive atmosphere at the Fair Haven Police Department’s 13th Annual Night Out.
Slated for Tuesday evening at 5 p.m., the event at the Youth Center on Fisk Street behind police headquarters will kick off with a close-up look at a MONOC Air Medic Unit helicopter on the grounds.
From that point on there will be demonstrations, looks at police and fire equipment and vehicles, a gaming tent sponsored by the Fair Haven First Aid Squad, a bounce house sponsored by the Fair Haven Fire Department, a dunk tank sponsored by The Foundation of Fair Haven, Karate demonstration by Fair Haven Martial Arts, a K-9 demonstration by Monmouth County Sheriff’s Officer Mike Mindo and K-9 Tango, an appearance by McGruff the Crime Dog, food, soft drinks, drawings and prizes from local businesses and Target, and, of course, an opportunity to meet Fair Haven police officers better understand their job protecting and serving the community.
Can you guess who’s going in the dunk tank this year?
National Night Out, an event designed to foster community-police awareness in the United States, is held every year on the first Tuesday in August.
