Off the beaten tow path
Another phone camera picture, this time from the top of the berm along the Delaware-Raritan Canal tow path. I took it this afternoon in the stretch between Province Line Road and I-295 in Lawrence Township. If you saw how built up the area is, you would be surprised at the large expanse of woods and swamp lands near the canal.

Been there, done that. Actually the whole 35 miles.
The superhighway of its day, it's amazing how abandoned it is today.

I was road biking on Canal Road next to it in the midday heat today. Keep your eye peeled for the ~15 unmarked graves of various Irishmen who died building the damned thing.

Government health care circa 1820. Kill off the patient and no further expenditures are needed,
