New Jersey parks are different from parks in San Diego. They have water and lush foliage. And different birds. And not very many people. Kongo is on the East Coast this week and visited Strawbridge Lake Park in Moorestown, NJ late this afternoon and thoroughly enjoyed the half hour before sunset.
As a promised follow-up to an earlier post today, it turns out there was a storm after all. Despite the monkey’s hopeful strategy. There were a couple of random flakes early but it started right at 10 AM in earnest, just as predicted.

Laurel, New Jersey (about 10 miles east of Philadelphia) and came across some interesting signs posted around the hotel pool which was still closed for the winter. TWICE monkeys are warned that glassware is not allowed in the pool area. But it gets better. See the rest of the pictures. Continue reading “Pool Rules”
