- Took some photos in the absolutely beautiful weather in Cape May & Sea Isle. They’ll wind up on my site at some point. #
- The lobster roll at The Ugly Mug (@uglymug206) in Cape May rivals any I’ve had in New England. #
- Removing my data from drop.io. Gonna miss this great service. Facebook bought & is killing it. Like I needed another reason to hate Facebook #
- Getting stuck in stopped traffic sucks. Having a dead skunk under your car while sitting in stopped traffic sucks even more. #
- Now I can not buy any Beatles music on iTunes like I also didn’t buy when it was available in other mediums. Not an exciting announcement. #

- The Mother’s Day menu in casa di Gatti was sauteed salmon with a dill cream sauce. Turned out well. Not Alaskan salmon but good nonetheless. #
- Last night’s SNL with Betty White was the funniest episode I’ve seen in a few years. “Wizard of Ass!!!” #
- It feels more like Fall than Spring outside, so what the heck, I broke out the pumpkin spice coffee this morning. #
- I realized we finally get @discovery in HD. @DeadliestCatch is even better in this way. #
- I just ordered some postage stamps to support shelter animals. Get some at http://stampstotherescue.com. #

- Just finished landscaping Stroup Manor. #
- Exhausting but productive day. Rewarding myself with a Wawa hoagie… on whole wheat. Even when I splurge I’m responsible to a fault. #

- RT @thegizwiz: “took Starbuck’s Challenge today. Both coffees tasted exactly same” -so the instant is overpriced & lousy too? Good to know. #
- Seriously, when will people learn we aren’t kidding when we tell you DO NOT open attachments or click links in e-mails! http://bit.ly/2oO1v #

A fall day on the AC boardwalk
Most people might think the summer is the best time to go down the shore. I much prefer to go in the fall or winter. The crowds are smaller; the weather is so much nicer and much less smog. I just added some photos from Atlantic City that turned out great because it was such a clear day.Check them out right here.

Batsto Photos
If you’ve never heard of Batsto, it’s an historic village in New Jersey. It’s an old 18th/19th century bog iron and glass industrial center. I’ve been there many times through the years and took some photos on a recent trip.
Check them out here.

Fire and Ice Photos
I just posted some of the photos I took last weekend at the Fire and Ice Festival in Mount Holly, NJ. This chili cook-off and ice carving competition was a fun a unique event. I got there after the chili cook-off was over, but I did make it to the carving portion and the dog sled demonstration.
Check out the photos here.

Huge Photo Update
I just arranged the Photos section of the website. I tried to better organize it by breaking my photo collection up by years.
At the same time, I also added quite a few new photos. The Winterthur album contains photos from my recent trip with Beth to Yuletide at Winterthur. The Hofbrauhaus album is from my grandfather’s 85th birthday celebration. There are also photos from the Adventure Aquarium in Camden, NJ as well as a ton of photos taken during a business trip to Hampton Roads.
Enjoy!

It’s about time
Today is an important day in the history of the state of New Jersey. I know, you’re thinking, “He’s happy about tax day?” Well, good news for you is that taxes aren’t du til the 17th this year, but that’s not what I’m talking about. Today is the day that New Jersey finally joins the ranks of other smarter states and enacts a ban on smoking in restaurants, bars and other public places. No longer will we have to be greeted with “smoking or non” when we enter a restaurant. Nor will we have to choke on smoke that wafts through the invisible wall that supposedly separates smoking and non-smoking sections.
All I can say is this law is way overdue. Learn more about why this is such good news at thetruth.com.
