Teaneck

When I first heard we would be visiting the township of Teaneck, New Jersey I didn't know what to expect. I had to look at a map to understand how we were going to cross a bridge from New York and get to our hotel room everyday.

As our organizers planned it our hotel was right off the first exit once we crossed over the George Washington Bridge into New Jersey, and what an unexpected view to behold. Tree leaves of yellow, gold, orange, and red leaves as far as the eye can see, something we don't see here in Southern California.

Robert and I walked along the quiet streets around the center of town and marveled at the beauty of the fall season and architecture. I couldn't resist all the brick work and colors so I asked Robert to sit for a few snaps.



We noticed many houses in the area had wells built in the front yards, and most all of the buildings are made of red brick - another characteristic you won't see in Southern California due to our frequent earthquakes!





Here's some of our group making their way back to the hotel and smiling about all the deals they found in the shops like purses and goodies for the room. Leonard had bought so many snacks that he ended up passing them out to all of us on our flight home!! Thanks Leonard, way to help me watch my waistline.


Just before leaving town for the day, Robert and I found this little place that served up the best Greek food...yum.

And yes, more pictures to come of our weekend rallies in Washington Heights and Harlem, New York!!
