I’m in the most densely-populated stated in the U.S., in the urban industrial section of what’s ironically called the “Garden” state. I guess that’s not so weird, since we do supply the world with two thirds of its eggplants (true!) We also provide the world with most of its condensed soup. I’m in New Jersey—Jersey City, to be specific—a mere hour’s drive from the Soup Tureen Museum in Trenton. ---

Whoops! Just having a “This is Spinal Tap” flashback… Comin’ at Ya from The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum’s home turf, Patty P.S. The Hall was a bit of a disappointment, to be honest. Try the Museum of Art or anything involving nightlife or theatre. ---
