Question of the Week- What is your favorite NJ getaway?
I asked five Madison residents to tell me about their favorite New Jersey weekend getaway or day trip. Here's what they have to say:
Kerry Weber
"On the weekends I love to hike through various parts of Jockey Hollow and the Great Swamp. They are so close and yet so huge! There is a lot of variety of territory to explore, providing a continual sense of expansiveness and fresh sites to see. There are great parts for biking and other parts where hiking boots are a necessity!"
Nicholas Down
"I am a Drew student and I grew up in South Jersey. I've spent a lot of time on the southern shore points. Cape May is really nice. When I'm at Drew, I like to go to New York City on the weekends. I also go to Cherry Hill. They have a great mall and good restaurants."
Yeimy Duarte
"I don't really go very far on the weekends because I babysit a lot. I like to stay around Madison. Nicky's Firehouse and 54 Main Street are my favorite places to go on the weekends!"
Richard Bradshaw
"My wife and I go canoeing on the Passaic River year-round. We also love bird watching in Cape May and exploring the Pine Barrens. New Jersey has such a great diversity of activities and places to visit."
Jeanette Guerriero
"I love going to the Jersey Shore! Seaside and Point Pleasant are my favorite spots. But in the winter, I think when I'm older, I want to move to Florida!"
