Solo Trip to the Beach - Linda Spreeman

Linda Spreeman and her Eternal Happy Place

Ocean City, New Jersey

Traveling solo to the Beach is certainly a lot less intimidating than solo travel on a Cruise. Truth be told I have been traveling to the "shore" since I was able to drive and obtaining my own car.

My grandparents retired to the shore so I had a place to go in my teens and twenties. Many wonderful memories solo and with my friends as a teenager at my grandmother's house (sadly my PopPop passed away at 68 when I was only 15).

I was able to make my own fun either by myself or with friends. The shore, specifically the 45th Street beach was my Happy Place. As a new mother, in my twenties, I shared that love as a family and my newborn baby girl.

Fast forward through divorce, remarriage, divorce, being solo for over 20 years and I still find myself eternally drawn to my Happy Place on the beach in Ocean City, NJ.

Cherished memories are always made and those have been enhanced by those made with my daughters, and also my granddaughters.

Recently I took a trip again - life comes full circle - and stayed in my favorite hotel on the boardwalk/beach. My grandparents house has long been gone - sold in the mid 80s - torn down and rebuilt on their oversized lot to a giant quad.

From my solo years at age 49 to my present age 69, many things have changed. I see the Shore - my Happy Place - through a different lens. What persists is that the Happy Place will always provide solace for my heart, rejuvenation for my soul and a deep new perspective for my mind.

GETTING GERTIE’S GARTER

1921

Getting Gertie’s Garter is a three-act farce by Wilson Collison and Avery Hopwood. It was originally produced by A.H. Woods and staged by Bertram Harrison. Hazel Dawn originated the role of Gertie.

The play takes place in a hayloft on the Darling Estate in Westchester NY.

The play was originally titled Come Up in the Haymow and (briefly) Gloria’s Garter. This previous version was produced at Cleveland Opera House (OH) on August 23, 1920 starring Enid Markley. It met with raised eyebrows and possible legal closure. Instead, authorities imposed censure:

"The lines must be changed. Now take this," the police inspector said, pointing an accusing finger to the line in the script where [Gertie] says: "I'm going to be compromised." "That won't do at all." The inspector took a stubby pencil from his vest pocket and rewrote the offending lines. He made the actress say: "I'm going to be talked about." Now members of the police force may visit the show without having their sense of decency shocked. "Mild as milk and just as sweet," say they.

In Cleveland, producer Woods saw the possibilities (after cautionary re-writes) and acquired the play for Broadway.  In the meantime, after Cleveland, it played Kansas, Nebraska, and Pennsylvania under the shortened titled Gertie’s Garter.

Woods put the revised and retitled play into rehearsals for Broadway at the end of January 1921. At around the same time, noted producer David Belasco predicted the demise of sex farces on Broadway. Ironically, the play actually performed at a Belasco Theatre on its journey to the Great White Way. 

The play was first presented at Woods Theatre, Boardwalk and Ocean Avenue in Atlantic City NJ on Saturday, February 19, 1921.  

Atlantic City’s Woods Theatre was originally known as the Savoy Theatre. It opened sometime between 1904 and 1907. Entrance to the theatre was through the Boardwalk entrance of the Dunlop Hotel. 

A review in the Atlantic City Press intimated that the play was too suggestive for the Boardwalk crowd, many of whom left at the first intermission. After a trip to Baltimore, where the title was abbreviated to Gertie’s Garter, the play moved north to the subway circuit, playing at the Shubert-Crescent Theatre in Brooklyn on February 28th. 

In March it traveled to the Shubert-Plymouth in Boston. In April, it moved from the Plymouth to the Wilbur. An expurgated version of the play was created for Beantown, a town known for conservative values. To promote the move, this item was released: 

“It must be known that the garter worn by Mrs. Gertie contains the picture of a young man, supposed to be a former sweetheart of the lady. While the audience never receives more than a fleeting glimpse of the article, the stage manager was a stickler for realism and insisted there should be a ‘real' picture on the hose supporter. Accordingly and therefore, the property man of Mr. Woods’ organization prepared four garters, so that, in case of the loss of one, another would be ready. Casting about for some photographs, he found four of a young man whose name didn’t interest him at all, the only necessary factor being that he was good looking, which he is. Nothing further was thought of the matter, and the garter was worn by Miss Dawn and also by Miss Mackaye until one night, when the ‘prop' was being examined, it was discovered that the portrait was that of Paul Kelly, who is the clever juvenile in ‘Honors Are Even,' now at the Park Square Theatre!”

Gertie closed in Boston on April 10th, taking the train to Chicago, where it took up digs at the Woods Theatre, naturally.  

Unfortunately, the Windy City wasn’t Garter friendly!  Luckily, Woods was the landlord. It closed in Chicago on May 21, 1921. It was whispered that the play was headed for the Eltinge on the Main Stem and that it would revert to a shortened version of its previous title: Up in the Haymow.   

On June 20th, it was announced that the play would go into the Theatre Republic starting July 25th and be known as Getting Gertie’s Garter.  The date was soon pushed to August 1st. 

As Getting Gertie’s Garter, the play finally opened on Broadway at the Republic Theatre (now the New Victory) on August 1, 1921. It was a success at the box office, running for 15 weeks with 120 performances on Broadway, then moving to touring companies.

"There is little use in retelling the plot of ‘Getting Gertie's Garter’, even if one could keep track of it. The title is, in itself, a complete scenario. The quest for the garter includes several badly confused sets of married couples, a comedy butler, a French maid, and a generous assortment of lines at which large ladies in the audience laugh hysterically and nudge their companions viciously. It is a curious thing that the Messrs. Collison and Hopwood will go as far as it is humanly possible, with the limits of the English language, to get a questionable line, but that they will permit no mention of the human leg, nor of the accouterments worn thereon. They do not even allow themselves the use of the word 'limb', preferring some much more circuitous reference, while the garter is described as 'something a girl must use to keep up her -- er -- appearances.'  It is discouraging to report that, despite the heroic work of its cast and the labor of its authors, ‘Getting Gertie's Garter’ remains far less depraved than those who have its success at heart could wish." ~ DOROTHY PARKER

Hazel Dawn (Gertie) found her role unsatisfying due to its similarity to her part in Up in Mabel's Room, an earlier sex farce produced by Woods. She left the production in September 1921 to take the lead in another Woods-produced farce, The Demi-Virgin.

The play was adapted as a movie three times:

Getting Gertie's Garter (1927), a silent film, opened in Atlantic City at the Virginia Theatre on March 28, 1927. It starred Marie Provost. It also featured Franklin Pangborn and Sally Rand. 

Night of the Garter (1933) was a British film that changed Gertie to Gwen (Winifred Shotter). It also featured Sydney Howard. 

Getting Gertie's Garter (1945) starred Marie ‘the body’ McDonald as Gertie. It opened in Atlantic City in December 1945 at the Apollo Theatre. The theatre was once one of the busiest new play incubators in Atlantic City, before becoming a cinema in the early 1930s. 

Radio’s "The Screen Guild Theater" broadcast a 30-minute adaptation of the movie on March 4, 1946 with Dennis O'Keefe and Barry Sullivan reprising their film roles.

Moving To Atlantic City

Long before Atlantic City was founded, the island where it would be developed, thick with woods and lined with dunes, was the summer home of the Lenni Lenape Indians, an Algonquian-speaking people.

The Boardwalk was first constructed in 1870, 16 years after the resort city was incorporated by the New Jersey Legislature. Atlantic City was viewed as a prime piece of real estate and its development brought wealthy visitors to the newly constructed resort with ocean views.  Costing five thousand dollars and built 10 feet wide in sections of 12 feet, the first boardwalk was dedicated on June 16, 1870.  No stores or commerce of any kind was permitted within thirty feet of the walk, and at the end of each summer season for many years, the Boardwalk was actually taken apart and stored for the winter months. 

Salt Water Taffy a world-famous confection which was born, according to legend, in Atlantic City. The story which is repeated as an article of faith is that , one stormy night in 1883, candy store owner David Bradley had his Boardwalk shop ruined by an abnormally high tide. He was trying to pick up the pieces when a customer walked in and asked if he had any taffy available. “Only salt water taffy,” was the response, and a shore tradition was born. The customer bought it, liked the taste, spread the word, and helped create a shore delicacy.

In February 1921, the City commissioners authorized the construction of a building to be dedicated to public use as a permanent memorial commemorative of the services of the soldiers and sailors of the colored race of the City of Atlantic City, who have served in any war in which the United States has participated” (City of Atlantic City Public Ordinance No. 6, 1921).

With the passage of the Casino Gambling Referendum in 1976, Atlantic City began an upward battle, not unlike one it had started two hundred years before, to use the glorious resources it has been given by nature, to make it once again a world renowned tourist Mecca.

Several smaller themed retail and dining areas in casino hotels include the Borgata Shops and The Shoppes at Water Club inside the Borgata, the Waterfront Shops inside of Harrah's, Spice Road inside the Trump Taj Mahal, while Resorts Casino Hotel has a small collection of stores and restaurants.

Atlantic City Hotels, Atlantic City, Atlantic City Casinos, Atlantic City New Jersey Hotels, NJ Casino, Hilton, Bally's, Trump Marina, Trump Plaza, Trump Taj Mahal, Showboat, Tropicana, Resorts Atlantic City, Borgata, Caesars, Harrah's, Inn, Quality Inn, Marriott, Ramada, Day's Inn, Comfort Inn, Flagship Resort, Sheraton, Courtyard by Marriott, Holiday Inn, Quality Inn, Clarion, Travelodge.

New Jersey was also home to the Freehold Raceway, the oldest racetrack in the United States and one that continued to operate through various legal statuses, including an 1894 decision to ban pari-mutuel gambling and an 1897 referendum which made all gambling illegal.

Commercial airlines serve Atlantic City via Atlantic City International Airport , located 9 miles (14 km) northwest of the city in Egg Harbor Township Many travelers also fly into Philadelphia International Airport , Trenton-Mercer Airport , or Newark Liberty International Airport , where there are wider selections of carriers from which to choose.

Dr. Jonathan Pitney is considered "the father of Atlantic City." He was a physician and South Jersey native who believed that Absecon Island (where the majority of Atlantic City is located) was the ideal spot for what he called a "medical retreat." Pitney and his business partners proposed the creation of his resort town to Philadelphia railroad executives, who were sold on his notion that salt water and sea air held curative properties.

In February 2011, the state passed legislation permitting the construction of windmills for electricity along pre-existing piers, such as the Steel Pier. The first phase of the Atlantic Wind Connection , a planned electrical transmission backbone along the Jersey Shore was planned to be operational in 2013.

Atlantic City has fallen on hard times since the down fall of the casinos, but this also means opportunity for those seeking to buy low. As a result home prices reflect the current climate, there are great deal to be had on home purchases and with the location being near the shore it is only a matter of time before a boom begins. Many Discount Moving Companies are offering huge discounts as incentives as well.

Thirty seven

Running in New Jersey was not in the plan for 2021. But what was, honestly?! In 2020, like Fargo, I had registered for a marathon in Maine. And just like Fargo, they cancelled it with about six weeks notice. Coming into 2021, it was back on the calendar.

The kids and I had a great trip planned. About five days in Bar Harbor in the fall- enjoying the changing leaves, whale watching, Acadia National Park. And then boom- another cancelled race. Maine decided they didn’t want a bunch of outsiders invading. Eva was relieved because she admitted she didn’t want to miss school, so we cancelled the whole trip. The kids don’t know yet, but I’m holding them to it next year.

As you have learned from this blog, I like to train for two marathons at once. It seems silly to waste my fitness on just one race. I like to run the first marathon as a “long run” for the second race, and then taper again. So I started looking for another race to follow up on Fargo, and it just so happened that Atlantic City, NJ was perfectly timed.

I had never planned on making my trip to New Jersey a real “vacation” so I quickly booked a flight in on a Saturday and out on Sunday. It would be my first time traveling alone since before I was married and I had never run a marathon without any support. Nonetheless, the timing was right and it was easy, so I jumped in.

I arrived in Atlantic City and sure enough, the streets were named like Monopoly. I stayed at the Hard Rock Casino, which was expensive. The problem with Atlantic City was, either you stay at a reasonable place and the reviews say you’ll get bed bugs, or you stay at an expensive place and you can sleep easy. The Hard Rock was really, really nice. They allowed me a late check out and it was a beautiful room.

I ran to the packet pick up, which was at a bar on the beach. It was probably the longest line I’ve ever been in for packet pick up, and I got my first clue about the weather in Atlantic City. The wind was brutal and whipping to the east. After at least an hour of queuing, I was finally done and ran back to the hotel.

In the morning I again walked to the starting line. I hung out a little in the casino to stay warm, and drew a lot of attention from a some folks who had clearly been up all night gambling. They were AMAZED by what I was about to do.

We started on the boardwalk and went north and then turned off to the west into the off ocean properties of Atlantic City. It reminded me a lot of Las Vegas, and the race in Las Vegas, running through parking lots of huge casinos. Around mile six we came back to the boardwalk and ran south.

Due south was a challenge because the wind was coming straight from the west toward the ocean. It was brutal right away. I knew we were running along the boardwalk until almost half way, so all I could think of was the wind never changing.

The boardwalk is pretty run down. I tried to keep occupied by reading the signs of the shops, very reminiscent of Myrtle Beach or even Navy Pier. The homeless epidemic is also rampant in Atlantic City, so that was not uplifting or encouraging.

We moved out of the commercial boardwalk and into residential properties, and then finally off the ocean front at mile 11. We continued to run south though, and the wind never stopped. It started to get to me. My mile times just kept slowing and slowing. I overheard one volunteer explain that there is a bay on the west and the ocean on the east and that causes the wind to really blow hard in the fall.

At mile 14 we turned around and headed north and although the wind didn’t cease, at least I knew I was on the back half of it. I tried to keep a good attitude, but I really just staggered to each aid station. I’ve learned from the past that wind takes a lot of fluid out of you, and I knew I needed to hydrate more than a regular race.

There was one brief moment when we ran east, and then we went back to the boardwalk to finish the race. Without a doubt, it was one of the most mentally challenging races I’ve ever contended with. I pulled through the finish line just so happy to be done, but clocking a time slower than in years.

I reminded myself that this race just fell into my lap and that it was good to just get it done. A huge bonus was the medal, which actually runs on a battery and the lighthouse light flashes! I was happy to get back on the airplane and return home having completed number 37.

JIMMIE

1920

Jimmie is a ‘musicomedy’ by Herbert P. Stothart (music), Otto Harbach, Oscar Hammerstein II, and Frank Mandel (book and lyrics). 

Jimmie is the story of a waif named James, a tomboy who strives for success in the cabaret world, despite her past.  

The original production was produced by Arthur Hammerstein, staged by Oscar Eagle, and choreographed by Bert French. It starred Frances White in the title role. 

Jimmie had its world premiere in Atlantic City NJ at the Woods Theatre on on the Boardwalk October 5, 1920, for a three-day engagement. 

The ‘musicomedy’ was originally slated to premiere in Boston (one report) and Hartford (another report). 

The Woods Theatre was originally known as the Savoy on the Boardwalk between Ocean and South Carolina Avenues. The structure was shared with the Dunlop Hotel (later the Belmont Hotel), which also housed Woolworths.  

Jimmie did head to Bean Town right after its pitstop in Wilmington DE. It was billed as sporting “a bankrupting cast and 40 dimpled knees”!  

The show began performances on Broadway on November 10, 1920 at the Apollo Theatre on 42nd Street (previously the Bryant, later the New Apollo).  Architectural elements from the building were incorporated into the Ford Center in 1998. Jimmie closed on January 21, 1921 after 71 performances. 

After its brief run on Broadway, White and those “40 dimpled knees” took Jimmie on the road, starting in Washington DC. 

White touring Jimmie, Frances White was sued for $100,000 for luring Herbert Stothart, Jimmie’s composer, away from his wife and family.  The suit was dropped when Stothart and his wife reconciled. Four years later, Mrs. Stothart poisoned herself at age 27, leaving behind a five year-old child. So perhaps all was forgiven, but not quite forgotten. Stothart received 12 Oscar nominations and won the 1940 Academy Award for Best Music, Original Score for The Wizard of Oz. 

As she was finishing up her tour of Jimmie, White sued a dentist for over-charging for a gold tooth!  Her next show, Phi-Phi, was a flop and closed in Washington DC. It began life in Atlantic City, which seems a good place to end this blog.
