Whether you love American history, technology, art/design, or just seeing fascinating STUFF, you'll love walking around the Edison laboratory. From the cubbyholes stuffed with papers in his rolltop desk in the gorgeous library, to the mind-boggling machinery, to the music room with a working cylinder-playing phonograph, you get a sense of this driven personality who created modern America. One of the best historical sites.

Located on a mountain ridge in the Eagle Rock Reservation in West Orange, NJ, the official Essex County, NJ Sept 11 memorial couldn't have been placed in a more moving location. The NYC skyline vista and all it conjures up about our national history is before you. Names of the fallen, our NJ brethren, ring the edge of the plateau. Plenty of parking so you can spend as much time as you wish, any time of year. We've brought friends and relatives through the years and it's always a special moment together, remembering.

This is a great place to take a drive through, stop and admire the view and drive on. It's also a great place to bring a picnic basket and have a tail-gate dinner!
