OK folks! I am trying to have a free day Saturday, May 20 . Can we try to have a gathering about noon somewhere in central jersey? any thoughts or interest?
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(barbaram @ May 12 2006, 03:00 PM) [snapback]254251[/snapback]</div> Where in NJ are you? I live in Rhode Island, but I'm originally from Marlton, NJ. I get down there a few times a year (not this weekend, though!)
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(barbaram @ May 13 2006, 06:23 AM) [snapback]254656[/snapback]</div> Do they still have the sign on the bridge that says, "Trenton Makes- The World Takes"?
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(larkinmj @ May 13 2006, 08:08 AM) [snapback]254674[/snapback]</div> I'm in Hillsborough, and I've had my Prius for 3.5 weeks. Keep me posted!
Yes, the "Trenton Makes, the World Takes" Bridge is still there. I work Central Jersey and up for a get together. I've been waving to all Priuses I see on the road and rarely get a wave back -- where are you guys?
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Somechic @ May 16 2006, 10:23 AM) [snapback]256227[/snapback]</div> I'm up and down almost the whole length of the turnpike everyday. I'll wave back if I see you!
Ok Jersey folks. This is not exciting, but maybe if some folks show up we can get together and plan something worthwhile! Saturday, May 20, 1 pm. There is a BURGER KING on RT 33, just west of RT 295. Take RT 33 exit towards Trenton. @nd light is shopping plaza. Not much there except a big parking lot & a Burger KING. Figure at least we can get refreshed.
I'm going to be making a few trips to NJ in June and July to visit family- maybe I'll run into (not literally I hope!) some of you Jersey folks then.
OK Gang! we'll keep trying! The Grounds for Sculpture is in Hamilton and a great place to hang out... we'll try for a date there!
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(barbaram @ May 20 2006, 08:31 PM) [snapback]258648[/snapback]</div> Sounds like a great idea! I couldn't get online to the Prius Chat forum yesterday, so I would have missed the get-together. There's an 'eastern PA' club in the 'local club' forums - perhaps we should post about a get-together there, too. http://priuschat.com/PA-Eastern-Pennsylvan...-Forum-f48.html
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Redblue88 @ May 17 2006, 12:26 PM) [snapback]256914[/snapback]</div> Ok, I was driving around Princeton on Sunday (5/21), saw AND waved to different Priuses and NO ONE waved back to me! I guess it's me. WHERE are you guys?
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Somechic @ May 22 2006, 12:53 PM) [snapback]259255[/snapback]</div> I went through town about 4:00 down Alexander to Route 1. Didn't see any Priuses, but I was waving. :lol:
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Somechic @ May 22 2006, 12:53 PM) [snapback]259255[/snapback]</div> I'm here...monday-friday, 6:30-8 in the morning and 6-7:30 in the evening. I'm the one in the 06 Barcelona Red doing 71 in the far right lane of either the turnpike or 295
As an ex-jerseyite [who, I'll note, also failed to drum up any interest in joining up with y'all back in march] I would heartily suggest coming up with a meeting place of more visual and road-trip interest than a BK parking lot in the middle of a mall. Ick. How about some nice park out in Hunterdon County, or out near the Water Gap, or something actually worth driving out to? If you play your cards right, you might even attract a couple of out-of-staters [ahem] depending on when.. . _H*
