Grounds for Sculpture : Grounds For Sculpture, May 30, 2008
www.groundsforsculpture.org  
This is a really cool, very large sculpture park.  There a sculptures lining the streets on the way to the Grounds, even on the Interstate Highway where they have to giant heads on the side of the road.
They have more than sculptures, though.  Watch out for the loud peacocks, and random signs in the middle of the paths.

Turning Bridge Over D&R Canal in Princeton : I went for a walk to find a bridge that I've heard some co-workers talk about over a year ago.  It's a pretty nifty piece of engineering that, I believe, dates back to the late 1800's.  The bridge is still used today by the Dinky Train that runs just over 2 miles between the Princeton Junction station, and the Dinky station at Princeton University.  This is the shortest passenger railroad spur in the United States.

Adventure Aquarium 2/5/2008 : Field trip to Adventure Aquarium in Camden, NJ.  The morning started off well with the penquins.  I knew I would be up for a challenge with all the glass and dark rooms.  I eventually got frustrated after taking lots of bad pictures.  Feel free to comment as necessary, but I'm aware that most of these shots are not my best work.  Most of them look great in the thumbnails!

The Princeton Blue Bottle Sculpture Mystery : A Gallery of Photos of one of the Mysterious Blue Bottle Sculptures that appear in Princeton.  This particular one is on Quaker Rd and Appeared in January of 2008.  These Sculptures have appeared in the Weird NJ Magazine.  HERE is a link to a "Bottle Tree" website. The ones from the website are all steel and slightly different, but I believe that they are all "evil trapping" bottles.
