No, I haven’t. I don’t have a car, so I mostly only go where I MUST as I’m on a local NJT train stop, so the trains are few & far between (and stop running early). Buses take forever and taxis can get wicked expensive if you have to go very far.

I’ll definitely keep Millburn in mind though as I love history—maybe next time a friend with a car is in the area, we can go there.

Yeah, it certainly describes the routine I was used to! Once you get out of walking distance of the Morris and Essex line, the Oranges (and like communities) get to be a real drag. Millburn has some good historic sites and attractive houses (including some that I helped design-shamless plug), but they aren’t located in a walking zone with the exception of the Wyoming Ave Historic district, the downtown, and the country club area by the Short Hills station (cool McKim, Meed and White house there)! So yes, take a friend’s car, travel around Millburn and enjoy the sights/architecture/history, and at the end treat yourselves to a Gobbler sandwich at the Millburn Deli (I’m pretty sure the stuffing is pork free). :-D
