“The morning had dawned clear and cold, with a crispness that hinted at the end of summer.” - George R.R. Martin, American novelist
Far be it for us to hasten the end of summer, but the weather forecast is looking quite comfortable - and free of rain! - for the next few days, so let's take advantage by getting out there to do some exploring this weekend! Fans of history and vintage items should check out the Warren County Antiques Show ($1 off admission if you visit their website ahead of time); and consider heading to Waterloo Village to check out blacksmithing at Canal Day. Consider taking the kids to Free Family Astronomy Field Day, as well as Community Days hosted by both Harmony and Lopatcong Townships. As usual, there are plenty of live music offerings all around the county - including Bill Kirchen, "The Titan of The Telecaster" at Ramsaysburg, Allan Harris Quartet at Rutherfurd Hall, Rave On (Buddy Holly/Roy Orbison Tribute) at Shippen Manor - and so much more. Plus, it's fresh produce season! Look for farmstands, markets and pick-your-own opportunities at this link to Explore Warren. Happy Wanderings!
