Dave Van Ronk recorded a song about New Jersey, entitled Garden State Stomp. The lyrics are essentially a list of places in the state, many of which have rather unusual names. Some are obscure and may be a challenge to find.

Garden State Stomp lyrics



The object of this thread is for us to collectively assemble a set of zoomed-in GE Pics to represent each of the places mentioned in the song, with each place represented only once in the thread - so we do not want repeats of places that are already here. Therefore, before you post a GE Pic for a particular place, please check first to make sure it is not represented here already. If you want, you may attach a placemark for the place. I'll collect them all into a single kmz file in the order that the places appear in the song, filling in the missing ones.

You may post a GE Pic for more than one place, but please represent each place in its own individual post. Also, please add the name of the place to the subject line of the post. For example:
