It would be cool if they called the motel the Manor and built it similar to the original hotel.

I agree with the Olney crew in that ad. I'm just really glad that we did get to eat there this summer before it closed. The food was good, had a great game room and nice golf area. Our family had nice memories there. They will be missed!  |

the hawaiin rumble is this the one that was acrossed from the packard hotel on 26th and surf That's it, yes, a block north of the Avalon. Sorry that the Rumble was one of your favorites. I was unaware of it until just the past couple of years (because I never stayed in or near North Wildwood), but I can certainly appreciate now why people are sad to see it go. I guess by now each of us has a short list of excisions from the island that have drawn our personal blood. You'll still find plenty of places to play Skee-ball or have a good breakfast, but yes, the options are dwindling. |

Thanks for the research kathy. I would bid on the pac man game if I had a place to put it.

I look at some of these photos, and other times while I'm taking photos, I just want to cry Me too. Better to have the photos than not, though. Cameras are so much more user-friendly than pencils and paints... I'm glad I wasn't born in the days when you had to be truly artistic in order to capture an image of something that was dear to you.  |

This is so sad. I wish I had taken photos while I was inside eating or playing the video games. I do have photos of the kids playing golf. I'm glad I have those!

Cameras are so much more user-friendly than pencils and paints... I'm glad I wasn't born in the days when you had to be truly artistic in order to capture an image of something that was dear to you. So true. And, considering the quality of my artistic abilities, if I were born prior to the age of accessible photography, I would have been screwed! ;D I'm really going to miss the Hawaiian Rumble. Having stayed in and around that area of North Wildwood for years, it was always a very familiar and fun place to visit. I guess my emotions are somewhat tempered at this time because this is something that we've known was coming. I visited the Rumble a few times this summer, and with the new construction going up all around it, the area seemed so foreign. I'm sure it's something I'll get used to as I continue to visit that area, but the radical change happened so fast; I just felt way out of my element there. The Rumble was like a mini-oasis in the middle of a bizarro world this year. |

I sat there on our last day in August in tears eating.. Here is a pic of it Friday the day before the auction..  |
