Just found your video. Very good and very interesting. I'm surprised that there aren't more views here. I'm originally from Long Branch.

Very poor audio. However, I did work in Elberon/Long Brach when I was 16 as a mother's helper for a Jewish couple that had a 2 year old son, Jeff, who I took to the Long Branch Country Club each day.
