Shad Fest ’07 – Lambertville, NJ
 |
Today was the 2007 Shad Fest in Lambertville, NJ. Lambertville is a quaint little town on the other side of New Hope, Pennsylvania. Matt also happens to work in Lambertville.What is a Shad? “The shads or river herrings comprise the genus Alosa, fishes related to herring in the family Clupeidae. They are distinct from others in that family by having a deeper body and spawning in rivers. The several species frequent different areas on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean and in the Mediterranean Sea. The shad fry live for a year or two in fresh water.” -Compliments if Wikipedia
We were able to stop by Matt’s favorite micro brew, River Horse. The best beer ever made is Tripel Horse by the aforesaid mentioned brewery, it’s a 10% alcohol Belgian style dark beer. Full of flavor and packs a punch. You can see pictures here. |
Matt’s Day in Wildwood
| Matt had a job in Wildwood today and he still managed to take a bunch of personal pics. The sky was a little overcast but it was a great location and a great day.
FYI: Don’t ever get gas at a place that spray paints the type of fuel on the side of the pump. Here are a few pics. |

Tennessee and Back in 43 Hours
  |
Bree and Matt took a road trip to Tennessee for a school project. They spent the night in Knoxville, which was the home to the 1982 World’s Fair with the Sun Sphere as its main feature.Just outside of Knoxville is the “Secret City”, Oak Ridge Tennessee. Oak Ridge is was home to Y-12 Security Facility and is the home to the American Museum of Science and Energy, an associate museum of the Smithsonian.
After that, they went to a car show at the Knoxville Convention Center. Matt fell in love with the Dodge Challenger, set to hit the market next year. We also were impressed with the people from Scion. They have a great car and are real nice people. They wrapped up the evening with a stroll through World’s Fair Park and a little room service. After some time in the park the next morning they were back on the road home. You can see the pics here. |
The Big Flood ’07
| We ventured out to document the Nor’easter that struck the North East. It was a very exciting day… until Gabby fell.The center of Manville was devastated, again. This kind of flooding hasn’t been seen since Hurricane Floyd. We feel lucky to have not been affected by this storm but we hope for a quick recovery for the citizens and business’. Godspeed, because one of our favorite steakhouse and Matt’s barber are underwater. Here are a few pics. |

Another trip to the AMNH – 50mm
 |
We took another trip to the American Museum of Natural History. We braved the terrible weather and were well rewarded. Matt shot it with a 50mm lens, this is only worth mentioning because he shot it with a 15mm fisheye last time. It’s a nice contrast.
You can see the older pics here. |
