ALICE OLDFORD
Are you eager to embrace the outdoors and what Mother Nature has to
offer, get your family involved or perhaps learn some local history? You
can find what you need in Hunterdon and the surrounding Counties. Check
out Taylor Steelworkers Historic Greenway in High Bridge, a wonderful
source of history dating to the Revolutionary War. For an environmental
lesson, try Merrill Creek Reservoir in Washington Township, Warren
County. Enjoy a family picnic in the shade along the Black River at
Hacklebarney State Park, Chester Township, Morris County. Beauty and
serenity are available right here in New Jersey, the most densely
populated state in the United States. I hope this book will encourage
you to explore the possibilities.
Alice Oldford has been a trail lover since childhood when riding her
horse on the well-developed trails of the Watchung Reservation in Union
County was a treat. Later when there was no longer a steed at hand, her
own feet served her well. Then she learned about the benefits of
exercise and endorphins and just kept walking. Her first book, You Can
Get There from Here -- Hiking Hunterdon County Trails, in collaboration
with Sue Dziamara, grew from their walking and exploring in Hunterdon
County and wishing to share the wealth. This book broadens the quest.

Jesus is a young boy who dreams of one day becoming one of "New York's Bravest" - A New York City firefighter. As he grows up, both faith and fate play important roles in the shaping of his moral character. He must overcome a great personal challenge to attain his goal. Along the way he learns positive life changing lessons of honesty, integrity and devotion.
Thomas J. Vito and Martin E. Coleman stood side by side at the foot of the World trade Center Towers, watching in horror and dismay as two hijacked commercial airliners slammed into the twin skyscrapers, reducing them to crumbling heaps
of
twisted metal and smoldering debris. Left in the wake of the assault
were the broken hearts and shattered dreams as thousands of innocent
victims,
their families and their loved ones who have bravely honored
the spirits of those souls whom our brave First Responders valiantly
attempted to rescue and save
on that solemn day.
Their
timeless, heartfelt story pays tribute to the souls who lost their lives
and honors the dedication and selflessness of the First Responders who
valiantly attempted to rescue and save the innocent victims on that
solemn day. This book is meant to serve as a "bridge" to help future
generations connect to the events of September 11, 2001 as well as
provide a message of inspiration and hope to help prevent such acts of
intolerance and disdain from occurring in the future.
The events
of that day and the months that followed as Thomas and Martin returned
each morning to their office located adjacent to Ground Zero, cemented
the men's bond and led them to bring to life a vision Thomas had,
a dream in which he imagined, "What if Jesus were a New York City Firefighter?"
This book is the manifestation of their desire to bring light from the darkness of 9/11.
