Ah-ha! I knew I wasn't hallucinating........martinis or no!

Trenton has the airplane of a friend of mine based there. Sadly, doesn't make the restaurants or hotels any better. It's equally inconvenient for PHL and EWR, other than that i have nothing to say from an FT perspective. The blooms on all the trees are beautiful just now, the New Jersey moment of beauty.

Don't eat at the hotel. It sucks! go out of the hotel to the light, turn left, follow the road past the airfield for a bout a mile. Go under the railway bridge to the strip mall on your left. In that strip mall is a restaurant called Metro. It's an Italian restaurant that does decent food and great martinis!

Very cool. We went to the Metro for lunch, and it was very nice. Also found a Five Guys here! :) ^

Mine involves the brisket I made yesterday, steak fries, and ???

I must replace most of my windows in order to make my house marketable. I finally ventured out this afternoon only to find one place closed 11 min before I got there and never did find the second place even though I drove by the area 3 times. I think spending a crazy amount of money to sell my house probably is affecting me:td:

A few issues:

A. We're downriver from BNA
B. Wastewater is flowing directly into the rivers, as the treatment plant is underwater.

Still thinking about selling mine to get away from college students - another house on my street (closer to the main road) just went on the market for 82+% more than I spent in 2006.

Reminds me of a restaurant I went to in the 70's in Ft. Lauderdale area which as I recall was called 49th Aerosquadron and was next to an executive airport. It was really cool with all the memorabilia and watching the planes take off and land up close.

Bought this one originally in 1980 and again in 2002 so the original appreciation was in that range but certainly not the 2002 to present price:td:
