Hey Susan,

I remember MacDonalds Beach very well. I was a lifeguard there the summer of 1960. Many many great memories from that summer.

Freqflyer, Yes, the Wayne Manor on 23, very popular for weddings and banquets. Whenever I drive down there I am amazed by how different it is. Do you remember MacDonald's beach? I spent my teenage summers there, so many happy memories. We lived near Laguna beach, that became Mothers Pub, I saw some great bands play there. Nagels Candy Barn, Bradlees, Wayne Hills Mall, Willowbrook and West Belt Mall, Bradlees is gone. That store was like the first WalMart, lol.

Susan, oh my gosh, Nagels Candy Barn, I remember that place from the 1980's, red building, wooden floors, a bit dark inside, realllllllly good chocolate candy :) On route 23, and across the street was a wedding reception hall?

I grew up in Wayne, next to Pompton plains. I still have friends in the area. I live about a half hour north of Wayne now. It was a great town to live in. When I was a kid, route 23 was 2 lanes, no overpass, and there were not nearly as many shopping centers. The 23 shop & Nagels candy Barn have been in business since I was a child, over 40 years!

^^ oops, meant Pompton Plains.

trinity, I found a current writer who is from Prompton Lakes which is in your area.

Oh yayyy! This is great! What are your experiences with your caregiving of a loved one? Did any of you have a parent/loved one apply for NJ Medicaid and if so, what were the results?

I live in New Jersey. Grew up in Wayne and now I live in Augusta, near Sparta and Lafayette.

Back in the late 1980's I did live in Kinnelon, down the road from Wayne. Really loved the area :)

I actually did all that, but doesn't seem like any of them are active users anymore....haven't posted in a long time. But, thank you!

Trinity Mar 2015
Ok thank you so much! I'll update my profile and will give that a try!

freqflyer Mar 2015
P.S. I just noticed on your profile you didn't fill out the profile sheet where it asks where you live. Chances are you won't get any matches using what I had suggested above :(

One suggestion to find someone from your area is to go to the right side of this page where you see MY ACCOUNT.... click on "More".... now go to TOOLS... click on FIND AND MEET MEMBERS. You will see screen names of other members from your area, but please note there are some names of members who are no longer writing or stopped writing years ago on the forums.
