The good part about this is that the weather has been phenom and I got alot of what I can see from my little LCD screen on the camera a few really good shots.
I should be posting them in the next few days also.
In the mean time I suggest you go do some reading on the state of New Jersey. Growing up and also visiting it a few times in my youth I considered it a hole and thought that calling New Jersey the "Garden State" was a crock :)
I have had the opportunity thought to revist it and actually tour around more and see alot more of the area by air and car. It is truely a beautiful place with rolling hills, lots of canopied roads through the countryside and lots of history.
Follow this link to Wikipedia to read a little about it and the photo's should be on line soon.
Cheers,
FD

Thanks for some unusually kind comments about NJ! I grew up there -- camping, canoeing, exploring the Pine Barrens, fishing & crabbing in Delaware Bay. Didn't know till I left that most of the country considers it an armpit... Ashamed to say that, when asked where I'm from, I usually say, "Philadelphia" just to avoid teasing. NJ awash in American history, and parts of it really are beautiful. Thanks for the reminder! Looking forward to pix.
Hey Cleve-o,
Yeah I always had the image of New Jersey being such a bad place of pollution and crime. I guess near the lincoln tunnel area that could be a correct assumption :) Maybe its all the people from Manhattan bad mouthing you guys because they have nothing else but chaos and tall buildings. Whereas NJ is a 10 minute drive away from the chaos where you can live in peace :)
