My home town
3 Attachment(s)
Bordentown, NJ. Growing up, we called it "Boredomtown", a piney river village with old falling apart homes. Although rich in history (Home to Thomas Paine, Francis Hopkinson, Joseph Bonaparte and the first schoolhouse of Clara Barton's), it somehow got forgotten. That was then.....

What a beautiful town that is. Must be nice walking around and seeing all the history.

Nice shots ng, I could see that people care there, and take care there. Was it a special occassion having all the door wreaths or is that a Bordenism?
|
That looks like a lovely little place. The word "quaint" comes to mind, without any negative connotations.

I went back today, took a bunch more pictures of the town. It's really nice how people have taken to fixing up these old buildings. As I walked down the streets I could smell the wonderful oldness of it all.

I was going to crop off the bars of the fencing, but I kind of like them there: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...PICT0024sm.jpg I decided to make a poster of the doors-there's 24 here and I had a few more, but too much is plenty. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...wg/24doors.jpg |
I agree. Dont crop off the bars in that pic, they definitely add to it. All of them are great. I can't wait to come visit your hometown, someday.
