A message in a bottle was found at the Jersey Shore - all the way from Ireland.
While Frank Bolger was vacationing in North Wildwood, he spent time cleaning up the beach with his wife and granddaughter.
"Greetings from Ireland," the note says. "I have thrown this bottle into the sea for someone to find another day."
"Wednesday we were walking on the way back, we were right on the water's edge and a clump of seaweed, and I saw the bottle and I was getting ready to throw it out and I noticed there was a note in it," said Bolger.
The letter is dated July 17, 2019, and signed, Aiofe, with no way to get in touch with the writer. Bolger and his family hope by sharing their story, someone will connect them with them.
