My boyfriend surprised me with a 3 hour couple's spa treatment at Alchemy Mind & Body and it was unreal. The overall ambiance and energy in the spa was so warm, inviting and peaceful. The staff was beyond courteous and kind. The facial by was out of this world and the massage therapists relieved our bodies of every ounce of tension. Felt like for a moment in time we were hidden away from the world and able to just melt away into ourselves and reset. We will absolutely go back and encourage everyone we know to go there and experience the bliss!

The Franklin Mineral Museum is an interesting small museum dealing with the New Jersey Mining industry. The museum I have to admit is stuck in a time warp where I swear it is 1975 there. The signs are still typed with a typewriter. What is lacks in aesthetics, it makes up in interest in the rock field, history of fossils and Native American art. There are three main galleries, one dedicated to minerals, rocks and gems, the next on fossils of both New Jersey and elsewhere and the next on American Indian art with arrowheads and equipment and then off to the is the Fluorescent room that when they turn off the lights off and turn the infrared lights on it is quite the lightshow. Near the entrance you can explore the simulated mine shaft where you can crawl and then walk through. It gives you an idea of how the old mine was mined and how the job worked. It is really interesting. In the back, you can pay to explore for rocks to take home, I walked in the quarry and looked for samples and in the end found three red fluorescent rocks and I thought that was pretty cool. The whole museum including exploring the quarry for stones is about two hours. You will not be bored here. It really does capture attention.
