I saw that. Loved it. I go there frequently, although I live about ten minutes away.

WOW, I like Red Bank- I'm not sure I'd live there, but it's nice to visit ... It's expensive. And, it's not close enough to the beach, "for me". When I finish school, I was thinking closer to coastal community ...

On the other hand, if you, like me, live a 10 -15 minute drive from the beach, you get the benefits of living close enough to enjoy the beach without the hassle of heavy local traffic in the summer and threat of evacuation during hurricane season!

Awesome! Love Red Bank, now I'm craving dinner and a pint at Dublin House...

Is the food there good? I've passed the place, and heard lots of noise coming from it at night, but I thought it was more of a drinking place.

Hmmm. Let me know, and I'll have to investigate further.

I get my hair cut in Red Bank--expensive, but I have thick, coarse, wavy/curly hair, and very few hairdressers know how to cut it right. I've found one there that does.

Also volunteer occasionally at Lunch Break in Red Bank, a soup kitchen that is also a food pantry and gives out clothes to the poor.
