Update (Friday, 3:15 p.m.) 82 degrees in West Ocean City, bright sunshine.) The professional beach volleyball tournament, on the sand in Historic Downtown Ocean City, is going to have awesome semifinals and finals Saturday and Sunday. The center court is on the beach at Somerset Street. Can anyone send me pictures? I can’t pay you, but I’ll give you credit if I publish your pix in the blog. BJHaydenolney@gmail.com)

Sunday is the longest day of the year, and also Father's Day. It's a great June weekend for enjoying the beach and the ocean.
We’ve been enduring a dreary and unseasonably chilly week in Ocean City, Maryland, for the middle of June. Fortunately, things are looking up for the weekend. It will definitely be warmer today (Friday), around 80.
We had the Maryland Firefighters’ Convention this week, and it was the second week of high-schoolers celebrating graduation. The June Bug season is nearing its end.
We should be seeing lots more sunshine Friday, Saturday and Sunday, but there may also be some cloudy times. Highs around 84 on Saturday. As I write this (2 a.m. Friday), the local Doppler radar is clear.
The professional beach volleyball tour visits Ocean City for the first time this weekend, with the volleyball finals on Sunday. It’s also Beachfest weekend, including surfboarding and skateboarding competitions. And on top of that, Arts Alive at the park in north Ocean City.
I only have time for a fragment of a blog post, so you’ll have to check ococean.com or the local papers for times and locations of the volleyball, Beachfest, and Arts Alive events. Now, back to work.
Don’t forget that Sunday, June 21 is the longest day of the year (may it be sunny) and also Father’s Day. Buy Dad a new golf shirt, stylish sunglasses, or maybe a nice beach chair. Take Dad out to dinner. What better place than Ocean City? – Bernie Hayden

Plenty to do besides watch pro volleyball and play in the surf. Historic Trimper Rides is at the south end of the Boardwalk. Stroll off the Boardwalk at the Dough Roller restaurant at South Division St, and there's Trimpers.
