New Jersey offers a rich, interesting history and a wide variety of places to see and experience. Here are some examples of videos that are available on Google Video that hopefully will help to give you more incite into why we enjoy New Jersey...
Trout Fishing In New Jersey - Looks like a stream in Maine or Vermont. But it is in New Jersey. Here, Dustin Terwilliger, (at the time, a Student of film at Sussex County Community Collegein NJ) interviews his friend, who is an expert on trout fishing in this area. The music is by Bill Klemm whose CD can be found through contacts at me3tv.com. Additional information is on me3tv. This has some surprisingly good introductory information on fishing, despite it's roughness in production/editing.
Outdoors in the Garden State - 1937 - Google video of vintage U.S. Dept. of the Interior movie reels on the Garden State (northern) outdoors in 1937 and "New Jersey's State parks. Reel 1 shows views of rivers, lakes, and other points of interest in Palisades Interstate Park, High Point Park, Watchung Reservation State Park. CCC men clear underbrush, cut dead limbs off trees, work on picnic grounds, and spray destructive caterpillars. Includes views of Jersey City. Reel 2 shows CCC men working on bridges and drains, painting, exercising, and engaging in other activities in South Mountain Reservation and in Parvin State Park. Includes views of the forest, lakes, streams, rustic bridges, and waterfowl." [Note: This was included just for historical interest and curiosity, the information is of course very dated, especially in the manner it is presented.]
