I just took a 5 hour drive to New Jersey and ended up in Red Bank 2 hours before the stash opened. So what I did was walk around for 2 hours and when it opened, I was the first one in, and who was working there??? Walt's mom! Shes the nicest lady ever. Anyway, while I was getting ready to pay for the stuff I bought, Walt called the stash and started talking to his mom for like 15 minutes. So finally, they hung up, I payed for my stuff and walked out. Well, it was only about 11:40, so I decided to seek out the origin area where it all began: The quickstop. I drove to Leonardo, which was only about five minutes from Red Bank, and looked around for it. And around the corner on Leonard Ave (I think) there it was. Quick Stop and RST video. I stared in awe at the historical landmark. Then I thought to myself, "hmmm, maybe I should go in." So I did, and as I waited in line to pay for my pack of gum, I looked around and got this funny feeling that I had been there so many times before, but this was my first. I stood there and thought "ok, I'm here, but I cant believe it. I just dont believe I'm standing here!" So I payed, looked around some more, walked out, took some pictures, and headed back to the stash to pick up a forgotten piece of memorabilia. I went there, picked it up and took some pictures. As of right now, I am still in NJ right at the edge of NYC and NJ. And I still cant believe it. Man . . .
Thanks//Peace
