John F. Kenneday Boulevard East connects Weehawken, West New York, Guttenberg and North Bergen, New Jersey.
We walk along the bouleward almost daily. The walk is really enjoyable both during day time and evenings. The walk in recent days - November 2nd week is more enjoyable during the noons when tje Sun is shining. On any day evening walks give a chance to have glimpse of lit skylines of New York which is fascinating.

The Bergen County Historical Society ran an interesting night of Colonial Christmas music intertwined with the history of the Christmas before during and after the Revolutionary War. It seems that the Puritans really put a damper on the holidays in New England. In New Jersey, the Dutch dominated so the traditions developed much differently. The Campbell-Christie House where George Washington had stayed during the Revolution War was decorated for the holidays, not lavishly like the Victorian manors and homes in Bergen County but more to what the Dutch at the time would have decorated with holy and garlands. There were traditional games out to see, candy making and different ways that people would amuse themselves during the holidays. They had a combo of women performing traditional Christmas songs of the season in that era and they were very good. It seems that the Christmas traditions really do not change that much. They adapt to the times. In the Demerest House on the property, they opened a traditional pub and served light pub fare for an extra price with people in period clothing. They kept the prices reasonable and the desserts were really good. The whole room was lite by candle light and there was a nice glow to it. It really was fun to step back in time and see Christmas through the ages. The talk between the musical concert was interesting and engaging as well.

Feltville Historic District hosts a haunted hayride that takes you though the woods and past the old houses. It it not only spooky but informative at the same time! There is an old cemetery in woods but no one truly knows where the 24 bodies are located since the tomb stones have moved multiple times over the years.
