Sorry, I have a headache and can't seem to think straight....and no, I wasn't drinking last night. For some reason I thought of that Mount Hope sign when I saw Mount Holly.

New place is good - except I fell down the stairs in the garage this morning and twisted my ankle. Who the heck said it was alright to move into a place with all these stairs? Oh yeah - that was me.
Still lots of unpacking to do. but we'll get there.  thanks for asking

Not sure if these were mentioned yet but how about Ho-Ho-Kus, Moonachie (pronouned moon-ock-ie), Cox's Corner, Imlaystown, Interlaken, Succasunna, Cinnaminson, Loveladies.... I could go on all day if I had time!

I thought marlboro was named after the cigarettes.
I was gonna add Interlaken, but then I foudn out it's also the name of a city in either germany or austria... or perhaps even Switzerland.
Succasunna is an area within Roxbury Township, I overlooked it. Although it is a funny name. As well as Cinnaminson... doesn't really roll off the tongue well.
