I only ever travelled through New Jersey. My family basically established that we’d stop shortly before reaching the border and not stop again until we left the state. This was due to how annoying it was to stop in the state when our intent was to pass through.
I lived right next lake Hopatcong for a year when I was a kid. That was the only time I lived there. I used to visit different south Jersey shore towns every year. Now only Atlantic City about once a year. I Go to concerts sometimes in Camden and Collingswood.
