This years lights on the trees at the Court House Green are the worst ever....

Whoever over see's and is responsible should be ashamed,  It seems there was no rhyme or reason,
just slap up a million lights....

Yes there are alot, and it must have required alot of man hours....but it is not attractive at all...

This Historic Old City deserves better......

Interesting history of that business...Lowits was another store like that if i'm not mistaken, i remember getting my cub scout uniforms there as a kid.

Lowits, David Burr,TFank, Prozys.... fine stores.........main street was great at one time...old Woolworths, The Olive Tree, Riviera pizza, cowans ,the Fox, the Oratani...many more greats...

Anyone remember the name of the store on banta that sold pots ,pans, silver servers, kitchen appliances...seems to have slipped my mind....???

That live flight tracker is cool.....Hank ....but I think there is only One......P180.....ident.... VNR180..... that runs regular runs out of Teterboro...and its seems it only does short runs.... it just did westchester cty.ny..... and I've seen it just hop down to newark and come back again....

By the way it made it to......Westchester cty.(KHPN) in 11 MINUTES from Teterboro (KTEB).....

I guess thats why ....if you got money to burn why sit in traffic that would have taken 2 hours by car...ATLEAST

53

painting a house or what not ...I wish there was a picture of Grant Reynard maybe it would trigger a
memory...of him....painting around town...
