No, I don't want to buy any bootleg music (see today's NY Times) -- but I would like to check out this flea/farmer's/whatever market. Looked online but couldn't find an address -- any of you know where it is, exactly?
Much obliged!

I can get you directions but just so you know it's 1.5 - 2 hours south of here.

beppolina: I know I emailed you but I guess we should tell the others.

The directions are pretty easy. Take the NJ Turnpike south to exit 7. Then take 206 South (Might be east but I'm pretty sure it's South) about 6 miles and Columbus will be on the Right.

The two big days at the market are Thursday and Sunday. This place is HUGE. It's two or three times as big as the Meadowlands flee Market and bigger then English town. Unfortunately it pretty much closes up at 1:00 pm.

If you're looking to have a scenic ride home, continue on 206 to Rt 539 and make a left. This takes you toward Great Adventure. About 20 miles (Through horse country) you make a left onto route 539 (Traffic light), this will take you into Allentown (My home town!) there are a lot of Craft and antique stores. Anyone there can give you simple directions to the Turnpike.

There aren't many restaurants in this part of Jersey but there is a really famous place called Mastoris. http://www.mastoris.com If you headed back toward the Turnpike on 206 continue past into Bordentown, Stay right at the fork (turns into route 130). It's immediately on the left, you'll miss it so make a u-turn.
