I haven't been on this board as much as I used to, but I do remember a couple of Jersey girls that were regulars here. (Di-Briteblueeyz, and another woman that got me in to Freecycling.) My DD has a job interview in New Jersey next week and she's terrified to make the trip alone, her DH is unable to go with her, so I offered to go along with her. Now I'm nervous about it! I've never been to NJ before. We're flying in to Newark and then driving to Princeton. We're using my frequent flier miles, so we have to stay over a Saturday, so we'll be there from Thursday to Sunday. On Saturday we either want to go to New York City or to the beach. I'm looking for any words of comfort, wisdom, direction, suggestions, recommendations. If we go to the beach...can anyone recommend a beach?
My DD has been offered a job teaching HS math, but she needs to go there to meet with the superintendant and go over her contract. Supposedly this is just a formality.

You mean Di & Katz I think .. well Di for sure.
I'm sure someone from that area will be able to help you out.
Sounds like a fun trip for the two of you at least.
Cool on DD getting the job .
Let us know how it all goes when you get back :)
Hi mary sounds like
Hugs,
It was 'Lorax'. Not sure if she still comes around here.
I hope it's fun. The older I get, the more I get nervous about travelling to new places. I have no problem going someplace that I've been to at least once.

Susan,
Thanks for the link. I did see Lorax over there. Hopefully she'll be back to read my post, because I remember that she lives right in the Princeton area.
You have a good point about being able to go to the beaches any time. However, the thought of going to New York scares the heck out of me! Would we get lost? Would we ever find our way back? You're probably right that we should go there. I've always wanted to go there, but I wouldn't have a clue where to begin, and I don't know if my DD would either. At least I have a week to figure it out!
If we do go to New York, I'll probably have to go shopping for a super cool outfit before they'd even let me in Manhattan! Will they let you in with shorts and t's?! ;-)
Mary
Oh ok .. you're right & haven't seen her here in a while.
Understand about traveling to new places.
Hope to be going to NY for a short visit in the fall.
Have fun & let us know how it was :)
