Today I took a trip to Frenchtown, New Jersey. It is a town full of nice shops and restaurants along the river. I really went to see a favorite teacher of mine, who I knew was still living in Frenchtown. Ms. Lent was one of my high school English teachers and I had not seen her for 17 years! She does not teach in a school anymore. She teaches art to people in her town. She teaches them how to write in a fancy way called Calligraphy. She also creates art with henna. It was so nice to be able to talk with Ms. Lent for a little while as she created temporary tattoos with henna on some of her customers. She is very talented. Click on the C to check out her website (Calligraphy by Catherine)!
After seeing Ms. Lent, I was able to shop in some of the stores in Frenchtown. I walked down to the river to see the fish, and I decided to take a walk across the bridge. It was neat to think that one minute I was in Frenchtown, New Jersey and then after a couple of minutes of walking I was in Uhlerstown, Pennsylvania...a whole different state! I do this sometimes in Lambertville, New Jersey while walking to New Hope, Pennsylvania as well. If you are looking for a nice day trip, you should try it!
