From Egg Harbor to Cookstown, NJ

Weather perfect and I didn't mind that our 61 mile ride became 70 miles when we missed an important turn on our cue sheet. I am beginning to see why this is called the Garden State - farms, open space, lakes and tree lined roads. Blueberries and cranberries are a major crop in the area we cycled today. The town of Chatsworth is actually the home off Oceanspray. Fields of cranberry bogs parallel the road. When the cranberries are ripe, the fields are flooded and the cranberries float to the top for harvesting.
