Newark, New Jersey, A City Worth Visiting
You can not miss to notice the Prudential Arena if you drive on Broad Street in downtown Newark.
It dwarfs the City Hall of Newark in structure.
As well as the price tag...500 M on the citizen of Newark.
Is it a price worth buying? I think it is. Newark has to move forward regardless of the skeptics, arrogant, and "holier than thou" some New Jersey residents. They seem to embrace their community but they distanced themselves from Newark like a person with tuberculosis or leprosy.
Although not perfect, Newark has come along way from the troubled mid 60's. The Rock is Newark's showcase. My showcase, too.
It is not a ritzy town like Short Hills, Livingston, Essex Fells, Maplewood, Princeton, West Windsor, Montgomery, etc.
I would like to see some support, at least some sympathy, to the oldest and greatest city of New Jersey.

Autumn
Fall has come to Tewksbury, NJ.
It is my favorite season.
Halloween...
Warm apple cider and pie...
Colorful foliage...
And, Thanksgiving day.

An Apparent Migration from NJ
A recent comment of the census of NJ from intellectuals stated that there is an increasing negative migration because the "tax burden".
NJ gets 57 cents to a dollar we sent to the federal government. We are subsidising some other states. That is some taxing situation!
NJ Transit predicts a double in ridership in 20 years between New Jersey and Manhattan. There will be 42 million passengers commuting from Jersey to Penn Station in 33th St midtown Manhattan this year.
A new tunnel will be built from the Jersey side to 34th St in Manhattan.
I do not see a "negative" migration.

The Great Falls in New Jersey
I heard of this great falls in Paterson, New Jersey and people swear by it about the natural beauty of it.
I should visit it someday.
It is one of those best secret in New Jersey, just like our cherry blossoms in spring.

The Magic, the cd
My wife surprised me today.
I received the cd from Amazon via mail.
Listened to the cd.
Bruce created the lyrics and music.
But, Clemons rich sax tone, Weinberg fast paced pounding drums, Van Zandt raw and pure guitar rhythm, Bittan piano flow and Tallent solid bass created the rest of the equation of magic.
I was also very impresed on the string essemble.
Truly, a great album!

The State west of Hudson River
What keeps the island of Manhattan humming is because of the State west of the Hudson River. I am tired of hearing New York relating to Manhattan.
