So much Jersey Shore history captured in one photo! ✨ In the foreground, you can see Margate’s long-lost boardwalk, which was destroyed by the Great Atlantic Hurricane of 1944. Look closely in the background to the right and you’ll spot the distinctive onion domes of the fabulous Turkish Pavilion, also lost to history. And, of course, there’s Lucy herself, standing proudly in her original location, two blocks north of where she welcomes visitors today. ❤️🐘

Vintage photos always raise questions. Chief among them: "Sir... why are you standing on Lucy's water bucket??" We may never know, but today we can definitely say this is NOT APPROVED. 😅

On this day 56 years ago, Lucy decided it was time for a change of scenery. So, she took a stroll two blocks down Atlantic Avenue to the spot she calls home today. What sounds like a short walk was actually one of the most remarkable moves in New Jersey history. We'd say it was quite a day! 🚗🐘

You truly don't realize how much you miss blue skies until they're gone. We can't wait to welcome those beautiful blue skies back again. Stay safe, everyone. 💙🐘
