Stay at the Marriott in Bridgewater on Rt 22. It's 30 minutes west and in a really nice area. Great mall, good diners, straight shot east to the Shark. Check the drive time to the Marriott in Parsippany too. That's close to the airport.
I have to say Hillside is the worst part about Shark Aquarium. It's not the ghetto, but the ghetto isn't far away. The place it's self is awesome. great fish, great prices
??
gonna be moving that week. maybe i'll stop by on my way back to FL.
12:00 hmmm........... what are we going to do for lunch?
anyway, lets start a list of whose going to be there! i'm 75% sure, i'll be there.
b-man - burt
im there cant wait we need to get a mfk east coast tribe trip back to johns soon too
what kind of fish does he normally stock?

I'd love to go but don't have a car. I might go up to NYC that weekend and stop by on the way back home. Would anyone be willing to give me a ride to SA from the nearest train station?
mrjones221
06-19-2006, 5:22 PM
:clap :clap :clap :clap I will be there. I could use some new killers. The store has so many fish I went there before when I visited NJ last summer. I got about 12 Pirana, and I drove them back to GA.:screwy: 13 hour ride but all made it except one. But anyway see you guys there.

What an awesome day. I finally got to meet my "idol" the trust ! Now ,Ive known jed for years but this is the first time weve met in person ! I also got to meet with Dmack and IMFH ..cool bunch of guys , thanks for dropping by ! .
We also got to go to ECZS again and finally to Michaels where we got to check out his collection. Overall, it was a great day for the hobby . Thanks to George for giving us a generous discount and letting our members crowd the aisles of his store.
Special thanks to Ming, Li, Tainted Glory, Joel and his bro ( i always forget your name ,sorry !) , Michael,Rayman45 and Jeff, Nic and his friend for taking the time off today to meet with us. Majority of us went home with a new fish of course. ...
Jed and Neo , Post the pics !

Dmack and jed it was a pleasure meeting you guys (and anybody else i forgot). michael thanks for letting me(us) see your set up and collection. you have some amazing stuff. Thanks too all who put this together and for the record i technically got lost again.
