Thought I might start of thread of neat and cool things to do in Jersey, and especially the out of the way places, that only the locals know about.

I posted some of these in the recommendations section:

They include the Montclair Art Museum

(The Newark Museum is great too!)

The Dodge Poetry Festival

The Duke Gardens

The Raptor Trust (sanctuary for wild injured raptors, including hawks, eagles and more)

The Montclair Hawk Watch

Ray's Pizza in Verona

Montclair has two great places for amazing breakfast crepes...one is on Church Street, right near the back entrance to the theater and the other is in that Watchung Plaza area, just across from the gas station. (if you really want to indulge, try the dessert crepe with chestnut paste! yum!!!!!)

Emack and Bolio Ice Cream in Millburn, just off Millburn Avenue, a block or so from where it intersects with Morris Avenue

    ooohhh...I love Duke Gardens. I was just there this past January with my niece and nephews.

    My favorite place for ice cream is Thomas Sweets in Princeton.
