New Jersey Weekend Historical Happenings
Join me as I discover the unique and interesting historic sites that New Jersey and the nation has to offer.
Architecture, National Park Sites, Local Sites, and More!
Somerset County, Morris County... even Cape May County!
What may seem minute and insignificant is what makes history!
Not only do I like to write about history - I love covering events too!
Help bring awareness to the historic sites in your area.
I want to teach America just how significant New Jersey is!
