Good on ya. Glad you got out. I mean some parts of the state are gorgeous. The politics, not so much. My kin folk all came from Greene county New York on the Hudson River. They’re spinning about 2,500 rpm as to what’s become of this country they fought for. Me too except I’m not spinning yet.
Before we left NJ we moved from Bergen Cty to Ocean County in south Central NJ next to Barnegat. A very beautiful part of the State as is most of NJ once you get past exit 14 on the NJ Turnpike or about 15 miles south from the exit 162 in Paramus.
NJ is called the Garden State for good reason and this can be appreciated best when flying over the State as I did often when I had by pilots licence and a PA 28 180 Cherokee.
Outside of the decrepit north east cities of Camden, Newark the State is mostly farm country and has among the most beautiful beaches in the country.
