Raritan River Trail - Edison, NJ


A tributary of the mighty Raritan.


The noble gull surveys his realm.


Home sweet home (to a swallow).


Black buzzard. (Don't stand too still for too long.)


Robin's egg -- or jelly bean?


Going at a snail's pace.


Don't rush throught the bullrushes.


The bucolic Edison Boat Basin.


Shore looks nice.


The mighty Raritan - or the sleepy Raritan?


Cruising the Raritan.


The middle of nowhere, or the edge or somewhere?


Walter Stochel of Edison Greenways explains the area.


We're an attentive group.


"Wouldja look at that ..."


Gazing from the gazebo.


The long lonely trail.


The trail's not so lonely anymore.


David single-handedly cleans up the riverbank.


"I'm so proud of him for making the environment a little bit cleaner."

Bat mitzvah


A proud uncle.


A happy cousin.


He's still got it!


"Hey cousin, I'm over here!"


A kvelling mom ...


... and dad.




A beaming grandma.


We love going to a simcha!


The glow of a happy occassion.


No outfit is complete without sparkly sneakers or a fashionable hat.


"We just can't stop dancin'!"

Blizzard of 2010 (February 10)


White-out!


Did the snow finally stop?


An elf's house in the snowbank.


Vroom, vroom! Tractor-skiing through the neigborhood.

The day after ...


The day after the blizzard.


The surface of Planet Neige.


Keep shoveling!


How about if I take a break from the shoveling to take an artsy close-up of snow-covered foliage.


At least the top of the house is still poking throught the snow.


What to eat after shoveling the driveway.


The cookie goes well with freshly-brewed coffee.

Wheels

Before

"I love my 1986 Corolla."


"I might drive this car for another ten years."

After

"I could get used to this newfangled Elantra."


"It even has electric windows! And a built-in CD player! It's like driving in the 21st century!"
