While picking out books for the kids today i came upon a paperback in Barnes and Nobles called "living on the edge of the world" edited short stories by Irina Reyn.

All the stories are written based on roadway exits on the turnpike and parkway.There were great stories on Jersey City and Hoboken as well as Fort lee .Really touching and wonderful accounts of living and moving to different towns in new jersey.

I sat outside and read the whole book today.There are about 19 stories that cover almost every exit and date back to the 70's and 80's.

Get this book,read it and give it to a friend,it'll make you feel good.
