I have a long rope tied to the stick and the other end to the wristband. That way I can lay the stick down and will not forget it since it is attached to me. I keep the...

    The Jersey Devil Story as told by his cousin

    Thanks for sharing. It is a very sad story and one that to me sounds like it could be true since even after all this time it would still bring some shame to talk about your family in such a way, even remote family.

All the bridges were crowded so we tried one of the side streams for a short time. No luck at all. I was still happy to take the kids to see it, seven bridges was one...
