Sunday Ride Is Always Amusing

This week we rode through the Pine Barrens of NJ, stopping at a few places to enjoy people watching,  a cold drink and a break from the heat.

The Green Bank Tavern is always interesting, you never know what you are going to see in this place. To call it a dive is being kind, it does, however,  serve a fairly decent Bloody Mary, my choice was club soda. Scottie (pictured) chose the BM, he always does. This place is in the heart of the Pine Barrens and has nothing but local ambiance dripping from it, the trick is avoiding the droplets.

The Bar

Note the high gloss on the Mahogany Bar

This says it all

Our final destination, after a fine lunch at the Watering Hole in May's Landing, is the Happy Apple Inn, Imlaystown . We always end up at this location, it is fairly close to home, they serve a good cocktail, food and it is always frequented by an interesting group of Senior Citizens. The porch is our favorite place to engage the patron's coming or going. Check the Happy Apple at : https://www.facebook.com/pages/Happy-Apple-Inn/253438928002416?ref=ts

Our favorite spot is the porch , from which we can engage  patron's in meaningless chatter

Historic Bar has not changed in recent memory
