I lived in Bernardsville in NJ, great horse country in that neck of the woods. I also spent a couple of summers in simmering, humid, beautiful Princeton working on a documentary with a friend. The Princeton campus is gorgeous. My not-yet-husband and I even bought a blow up raft and used to paddle around the little body of water there in the heat of the day. I remember it was the year of the cicada hatching (1987) and he, being a West Coast Canadian boy, had never seen a cicada. He was fascinated. >
