After returning from Belgium, we spent a few days in Lake Hopatcong, NJ recovering from jet lag and pulling Clyde out of storage. Our friend Ellie lives in Verona, NJ with her husband Scott and their two kids, Sadie and Roger. We spent Memorial Day at their home smoking ribs and grilling brats and enjoying a rare sunny day that week, and later that week had dinner at Krough’s in Sparta, a darling little town on the lake. Then we were ready for one day in Philly, visiting the Liberty Bell and checking two more Top 40 Whiskey bars off the list.
