Get your but down here. And tell me all you about the Jersey Devil. Met Tom BrownJR once . He was a trip. I played in the Pine Barrens .
Oh, I could tell you all kinds of Jersey lore, an abandonded asylum, a dam across the Delaware River that was stopped by gun toting farmers, a roadhouse in the back woods in Hunterdon where it’s said Johnny Cash played, rum runners, pirates. And of course I could tell you about the cranberries, blueberries, sweet corn, and those to die for tomatoes. No big secret with the tomatoes, manure, a little 10-10-10 lots of water (if it doesn’t rain) until the fruit are about half the size, then slow down on the water, don’t want them to crack and burst open. What, when and where did you play in the Pine Barrens? Lots of mobsters buried there.
“Tom Brown JR.” You got my interest perked. The name was familiar but I couldn’t place it, so I checked him out. As soon as I saw his picture, I remembered who he is. Interesting life, I bet meeting him certainly was a trip.
