Greetings from NJ round 2 - Happy Fourth!

3rd of July
along the Navesink River we have our fireworks display on July 3rd...while some may think this odd, I think it is genius; it is guaranteed that everyone has the next day off!

There is always plenty of food to go around

The boats gather in the river to watch (we will gather on the dock)

2008 was a GREAT display...better than most in recent memory

After the fireworks show, the real show begins

Beer Pong on the porch with the next day off...what more could you ask for?!


Princeton Gelato Adventure
