And I like to drive with the music really loud and the windows open.

Good morning.

I live in Franklin Lakes, New Jersey, which is about 10 miles west of the coast of So we didn't get affected as much as we were concerned, but lots of branches broken and all over the street.

A lot of leaves came down early because of the rain.

I have a beautiful stream in the back of my property, which I was concerned would overflow, but fortunately it did not.

And we took some beautiful photos on the beautiful afternoon.

And fortunately, we were there before the storm.

But thank God, Franklin Lakes is doing pretty well, other than some branches all over the ground and the street.

How about the wind?

So I love me some Wyckoff.

I love me some Franklin Lakes.

I do realize not most of them are from there.

But where can everyone find you? And most important, find this amazing record.

And they said the real reason why, besides Bravo not giving her the money that she wanted after her fifth season, allegedly, they were saying that the news was going to come out about her husband, Albie, Albie Sr., and his alleged mistress, who lives right around the corner from the Brownstone.

So she was just kind of like, you know, we were all confused and it's been, and they were saying, she was saying that even around town, people have seen him out with his mistress and his mistress resemble, they were saying allegedly resembles Dina.

Yeah.

but I think like, I remember when the OC one started and I was like, oh wow, this, This is an interesting concept because I grew up in an affluent area, Franklin Lakes, actually, where the Jersey one is now set.

Although none of them are from Franklin Lakes.

They all maybe have been there, but they're not from Franklin Lakes.

Do you remember, do you remember the, the restaurant Delpino's in Franklin Lakes?

And for those of you who are familiar with the area, it was over by, by Market Basket in North Jersey.

I really enjoyed reading his story because he helped support a Chinese-speaking church in suburban New Jersey.

He was on Route 1, Franklin Lakes, New Jersey, between Princeton and Rutgers.

And he was a person who built a church community from the ground up.

It started with three families, and it grew to over 1,000 people.
