We Have Been to the Fest of Cranberries

At the B-town RiverLine station.





Well the weekend is over, and John went back to work today. His commute was much better: 25 minutes versus the near hour and a half from Hazlet. I stayed here and did some research work for Peter Murphy (little opportunities seem to keep cropping up), and did a bit more online job searching. Mom and Dad stopped by for a bit this afternoon, too, and they both saw the place for the first time fully firnished and functional. I guess cuz I haven't been exposed to many apartments this is what is normal to me, but everyone who comes in has the same first reaction: You have so much space! And we really do. We have our own corners to retreat to when needed.





A little bit of home...for some reason Lucy the Elephant is a weathervane here.


So Sunday morning we had eggs for brekky, and hung out around here settling in some more. Then we went to Farnsworth Ave. for the Cranberry Festival. We had a delicious lunch from the Toscani's vendor. John had a luscious pork sandwich with broccoli rabe and provolone. I had a grilled chicken sammich with fresh mozzerella and roasted red peppers. YUM! After that we went to East Windsor to Super WalMart and Target. And while driving around there we saw signs advertising the Windsor Pumpkin Festival, so hopefully we can check that out this coming weekend. Saturday we plan to check out kitties and see how we need to go about adopting one of our very own. : ) We are in search of Shakespeare.





Here are some photos of the festival and of our new TV stand (with which we fought for over an hour to assemble...grr!)


John fills his flagon at Wild Bill's stand at the festival.

Sorry this is sideways. I'm too lazy to edit it. But this is our media center...and by that I mean the TV is on the thing we almost threw out the window.









John may finally check in with his own post later on tonight. And we're almost--so close!--finished unpacking the few boxes that remain. So as soon as they're all gone, there will be new video tour and photos.

Till next time, end transmission.
