New Jersey

Sep. 7-8, 2002

I started the trip the day after Labor Day, Sep. 3rd. I headed up to New Jersey by freeway with minimal stops; the fun part would be the return trip.

Bugs! This reminded me of the big dung beetles Martha & I saw on the Botswana border. These were somewhere in Arkansas.

I stopped in Harper's Ferry for lunch one day. I got my National Parks annual permit here.

The sand dunes along the boardwalk in Ocean City, New Jersey.

My tent at the Whipperwill campground in Marmora. New Jersey. This was my first campsite.

We went to Cape May and toured the lighthouse there.

Shannon and I on the walkway at the top of the lighthouse.

Rose and Shannon.

My attempt at an artsy picture.

Rose in the lighthouse.

Shannon catching butterflys in Princeton. On Sat. we drove to Princeton to visit with Rose's cousin Janet and her Aunt Lil (who was down from Long Island).

The creek behind Jack & Janet's backyard.

I went for a bicycle ride around Princeton.

I rode past the lake, ...

and on the tow path next to the old canal.
