Stop in for a cup of coffee

All NJ roads outside of south Jersey require constant attention. With rare exception there's nothing straight, they follow the contours of the land and waterways, and like much of the East, sometimes trace back to Indian trail and deer paths.

This is Johnny's, a hundred yards or so further west along the road. When they are open (Spring, Summer, Fall) the parking lot is often full, 2 to 3 rows of cars. Not into into hotdogs myself, but one day I'll have to stop and have one, or maybe an after dinner icecream. Great location along the Pequest River. I'm guessing this place started in the '50's.

In fact, you can tell the road has been moved away from the building by the location of the power poles. The road would have followed the path of the poles. Roads move, but power poles usually don’t. They would have originally been right next to the road bed, only a few feet away.
