If you ever go to Mackinaw Island take the ferry that goes under the bridge.



You can stay at the Grand Hotel, only $400 a night.



The only motorized vehicles on the island are emergency ones.



I wonder how they hook the telamatics up to his horse and wagon?

I should have waited to report this till today, so my car didn't get red tagged for the day. I haven't driven a P1000 in forever, and when I got into my personal vehicle, I almost ripped the steering wheel off.

But if you didn't report it last night and a car washer or someone else did, then you may have been fired for dishonesty. they would have suspected you were not going to tell them.

....or had a police officer spotted him on road the vehicle would have been pulled off the road...

^I doubt that cause I see people driving around with cracked or broken windshields all the time. You just aren't going to pass any type of inspection with it.

I was tempted to take a break an frolic at the beach... but i didn't since i still had 60 stops to go when i took the following:





but i had to go back inland for the rural part of the route... i hate covering too many zip codes



that horse wanted to use me as a salt-lick

These are called TP-60's and, yes, they are normally used for malls. Drivers get an extra $.10/hr when they haul one of these. Helpers will deliver out of these during Peak.

My guess is this is the boardwalk somewhere down by Ventnor City or Ocean City. Irregardless, what a beautiful area. You typically don't see large condo's like the one pictured until you get south of Point Pleasant and Seaside.

I love hearing people call NJ the armpit of America. It means one less person that we have to share places like this with.

NJ west of the Tpke is beautiful---east---not so much.

The pictures he took are east of the turnpike. Are you trying to tell us you don't understand how to read a map, either?

Depends on what state your in.

 

[HomeDelivery]

east vs west jersey .... nah, it's basically north vs south jersey when it comes to talking about which is the armpit of NYC or whatever.

I love covering south jersey in the summers, which is why i work out of 2 different terminals during the year. you're right on, Name Withheld! I cover any shore from Cape May up to Red Bank. some rural areas in between.

My only 2 areas I don't like to cover is Trenton or Camden. I'm glad that I don't work out of a North Jersey hub or there will be alot of send-agains coming back, like these 2 towns.

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

I had to bring my daughter to Carlisle, PA, from upstate NY. We took 87 down, went around NYC and picked up the Tpke. We then took either 78 or 80 west. All I remember is the part of Jersey to the west of the Tpke was very nice.

I have also been down to the Jersey Shore and that was very nice.
