Hey Dude shoes? I never thought a Piney would be seen wearing those.
If I don't wear my Olukai leather flip flops, I slip into them. I think they were $15 on sale 3 years ago.Hey Dude shoes? I never thought a Piney would be seen wearing those.
Berlin Farmers Market??Based on one lurker's private guess, I can tell this is a hard one, so here is a clue:
It's in Camden County, and it's surprising to see it amongst the other adjacent stalls, because they sell smaller, less glamorous wares.
Bingo Scott. My first time there. As I said in an earlier post, I've only been to Englishtown, Columbus, and Manchester (route 70 NE of Lakehurst. I'm impressed, especially by the ball cap variety. I'll be back. My ex lives in Berlin now (re-married) and we maintain a good relationship and can all go to grandchild events without any rancor.Berlin Farmers Market??
I did a lot of work for the Giberson family who started the Berlin Auction in 1940. I also went there nearly every Saturday night as a kid with my parents and bought soft pretzels, drag racing and hunting magazines and Revell model building kits. Me and my Dad always stopped at Charlie's Clam Bar and slurped down some top necks. I was bellying up to the bar and eating clams on the half-shell before age 10. Later I bought my ammo there at Sport City and my chew at Gibby's Tobacco.Bingo Scott. My first time there.

Oh wow, I didn't know that. My brother used to haul his junk there.Too Bad Rte 70 Flea market was torn down and developed with Condo's. I made some great finds there. That whole area is transformed.
Funny you mention the Henchmen, my dad said when he was a kid he aspired to be one in the worst way but I believe they went defunct in the early or mid 70s when the Pagans forced them to either get lost or join the Pagans.I did a lot of work for the Giberson family who started the Berlin Auction in 1940.

There used to be a local outlaw motorcycle club called the Henchmen that hung out there when I was about 12. I thought it was cool to see all the awesome 70's-style choppers parked out front. They stabbed and killed a prospect one night and buried him in nearby Berlin Township off of Cooper Road. The company I work for did the survey of the grave site in the 70's.
Here is an extremely vivid summary of an appeal by one of the Henchmen involved in the murder and disposal of the body.
The Berlin Auction is now owned by the Ackerman and Pratt families. They are builders and they also own the Columbus Mart.
