The Boy Photos. Movie Info. In the summer of 1989, the Mt. Vista motel has been slowly deteriorating on an isolated roadside, and its proprietor, John Henley, is not faring much better. Since his wife left him and their nine year-old son, Ted, John has drifted into despondency.
Spanning 2.5 miles, the Boardwalk serves as a by-way for biking, walking, and jogging. Distance is conveniently marked every quarter mile. From May 15 to Labor Day (and on Saturdayâs between Labor Day and Indian Summer Weekend) bike traffic is limited to between the hours of 5 a.m. and 12 p.m. for safety.
If you can ignore the boardwalk reputation - the boardwalk probably has the best beach quality anywhere in OC. You cannot drink on the beach in OC, MD, and the beach is crowded enough you can't get away with it if you try. As for the best stretch of beach to relax? I'd try between 40 and 60. It's away from the boardwalk, but not up high enough that the highrises are there (they cause too much shade). However, for what it's worth, during the day I think the beach up by the boardwalk is great. It's wider there than other areas of OC. The trash is still asleep from the night before, so relatively quiet. And you are never far from a place to grab a drink or snack without having to put your clothes and shoes on.
