In the winter I can go snowshoeing, cross country skiing and downhill skiing and perhaps throw in a I Love Guys With Long Hair Shirt ice fishing. I’m not a hunter, but those who hunt will find deer and bear up the wazoo along with wild turkey, quail, pheasant, rabbit, coyote and many other game species. If you can’t bag game in New Jersey, then you aren’t a very good hunter. On the downside there is the traffic. It can be bad, but nowhere nearly as bad as some other places in the US where I have lived and traveled (hello Washington DC area and LA!). Taxes and cost of living are high. I’m paying $1,100 a month in rent for a tiny (700 sq ft.) log cabin that doesn’t have a single closet. It is also miles from any mass transit and the nearest supermarket. In may other states I can have quite a nice house for that money. It costs LOT to live in NJ.
