Helicopters, Horses and Houses and etc.



      I am trying to pull some odds and ends photos into a cohesive group. How about my alliterative title? The horse photos were taken on Winslow Road. It is the back road that I took from Hammonton to get to Williamstown  and then on to Glassboro College back in the day. It is now known as Rowan University. The horses may be from a farm in that area called Lions Pride Farms. Also, I stopped at the Hammonton Airport awhile back and found the New Jersey State Police Helicopter revving up. 




















Ok, I have taken photos of houses and roadsides in several communities.  Some of these shots feature Ventnor, Salem county or Hammonton and some right here in Egg Harbor City.  On a sad note, there is a memorial to the side of the road near my house where two young men lost their lives about a week ago.  You can see so many candles, flowers and other mementos.



Here is my old homestead on Walmer Street in Hammonton:



Here are the apartments that made our neighborhood interesting to say the least.  Hardly anyone stayed there more than 4 to 5 years.  But Mrs. Ricci lived there a long time.  My friend Debbie and I would go there and we would get cookies and smell her lilac perfume.  The lady with the "evil eye" lived there, too.  She liked to wear dresses with anklet socks.
