....New Jersey, this shows that town do change,
or sometimes stay the same, this is in that range;
there is nothing special here, for you or I,
but the saying is. Beauty is in the beholders eye.
So..there we have it..America at it's best,
and we can't say that stuff in jest;
Woodstown represents small town life as is,
a place where each of us..forever lives.

Vineland...
...New Jersey, an aptly named place,
known for it's grapes, grown in the large space;
Thomas Bramwell Welch, bought a lot of grapes,
he made "unfermented wine" or the juice of grapes.
The growers were Italian, it's something they know best,
there were other farms, The Garden State, tells the rest;
maybe New Jersey gets a bad rap, from those that live away,
but life can be good, the skies aren't always grey.

Cape May...
....New Jersey, a short ride on the ferry from Lewes,
in the hometown of a special guest,
this is a special place, of that I am sure,
victorian houses and inns, used as before.
The U S Coast Guard's training base,
takes up some land here too, a busy place,
but this is THE hometown, and I'm not lyin'
of the one and only, and my friend, Brian!fd

Middle: The Cape May-Lewes Ferry; actually it's a part of the US Route 9 highway.
Bottom: A Victorian Inn, in use today and built in the 1890's - with renovations, I'm sure
