Yup just like everybody else who comes around the rest of the states around Jersey lol. You guys make it horrible for us Jerseians to have some fun at the shore lol.

Did I spell Jerseians correctly???

no no, Philly Burbs in South Jersey. We are in Eastern Camden County, but we stay in OC a lot because all of my hubby's family lives there. Actually, they own the amusement piers, waterpark, and some other stuff, so it is defintely OURS to enjoy! LOL!

I assume you mean the Cherry Hill area then?

Anyway...I'm from Monmouth: Where the the grass is greener than the bribes our local government takes.

Not in Jersey now but grew up there - Bayonne, Iselin, Elizabeth, and back to Bayonne.

Went to Bayonne High (NBU - Newark Bay University)

Ah yes... God bless Monmouth County.

Speaking of Jersey in general... hasn't anybody heard about how the governor (whom we didn't have a chance to vote in) is trying to raise our gas prices as much as $.30!!! It's a new tax he wants to sign in and they're going to try to sign it into law soon. I first heard $.14 but now it's up to $.30 (heard that amount on NJ 101.5 FM radio station). Gas prices are already WAY too high... Idk how people are going to be able to add another $.30 to that.

Ah, don't say that. My son went to high school in Burlington City. [/QUOTE]

I went to Palmyra. We used to play BC every year at homecoming.

Let me guess:

Lawnside?

 

[frankincense]

hahaha, no, but that's closer. Not naming the town here, but happy to on PM

 

[Witness.]

Williamstown, N.J.

Halfway between Philly and Atlantic City (more or less).

You have not experienced New Jersey until you have canoed in the Pine Barrens. Nothing like ice tea colored water!

 

[Witness.]

About Lawnside,

Did anyone know that it was the northern most stop of the underground railroad during the slavery days. That is why it has the densest population of blacks in the U.S. (or it did many years ago, anyway).

OH! I just took my kids to Turtle Back Zoo a month ago. I hadn't been there since my own parents took me when I was a kid. Remember when you could actually sit in the turtle's back?

I live in Trenton, New Jersey, next door to the Sovereign Bank Arena, and not far from the Trenton Makes, The World Takes bridge.

Speaking of making and taking, was Trenton once a center for industry in the US? I do see many abandoned industrial plants throughout the city, although some have been demolished and rebuilt into more useful structures (such as the Arena).

I also hear that a cinema special effects studio could be built opposite the Arena across Rt. 125 (?) and the River Line tracks! Maybe Trenton will become `Tollywood' (as opposed to Bollywood and Hollywood )?
