Off the Beaten Path: Skinnerville, MA | Connecting Point | Apr. 12, 2017
Connecting Point’s “Off The Beaten Path” continues with a look at Skinnerville, MA, a typical mill village of the mid-nineteenth century that was located along the banks of the Mill River near Williamsburg, Haydenville and Leeds.
In 1874, a catastrophic event would wipe Skinnerville off the map and today nothing more than a plaque on a rock and a few property markers are left. Producer Dave Fraser talks with Williamsburg Historian Ralmond Jon Black to learn more about this intriguing village located “Off the Beaten Path.”

Jantzen Club Villas in Williamsburg, Virginia
Presented by Atlantic Sotheby's International Realty
For more information go to
The history of villa living can be traced back to the early Romans and their exemplary skills in building extraordinary villa homes and communities. The early Romans discovered how private roads beckoned them into intriguing enclaves, tucked away from everyday living. They experienced the feeling of privacy that these special places could offer. Jantzen Builders has borrowed freely from these early concepts of villa living in recreating an exclusive haven in Virginia. What better place than Williamsburg, where early colonists dreamed of a new way of life? Jantzen Club Villas are positioned between two natural bodies of water, a veritable oasis. A private road leads you to this prestigious, inviting villa community, where trees surround eight unique and magnificent homes. Wrapped inside the stately exterior of colonial architecture is an innovative, state-of-the-art floor plan and an invitation to live life to the fullest. Take a leisurely stroll to the quaint Marina Village, reminiscent of Old Cape Code. You can meander among the boats. Chat with your friends on private docks, or watch the ducks peacefully paddling across the waters of the marina. The golf course, country club, marina, pool, tennis courts, fitness center, fine restaurants and even a private beach await your arrival. Rare opportunity to own in the private community of Jantzen Club Villas. This inviting one story home features a detached guest cottage, a 2 car garage with separate golf cart entrance. A wildlife connoisseurs dream, this luxurious home features a stately brick courtyard situated on a small lake featuring abundant wildlife. Many additional features including an outdoor shower, Italian fountain, hot tub and a built in shed.

pilotcar.tv - NYPD Helps Out In Williamsburg Brooklyn
This clip is from the same 35' powerboat run from Elizabeth NJ to Freeport NY. Here we see a tight turn in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Some people just don't understand the concept of a big truck making a turn and crowd up to the light preventing the truck from turning. After a few minutes we got some help from NYPD to block the intersection until we could make the turn. Finally one of the parked cars was moved and we could continue on our trip.

Parents Say Bicyclists Are Not Stopping For School Buses in Williamsburg
Parents in Brooklyn are fighting against bikers who they say don’t stop for school buses and even crash into children.
Now, they’re calling on law enforcement to act.
School bus driver Zalmen Isenberger’s job is to keep the kids safe, but he said that’s getting harder as more cyclists break the rules of the road.
“The kids come down from the bus, and the bikers almost kill the kids!” he told CBS2’s Jessica Layton.
Surveillance video shows a child run off a bus and get run down by a person on a bike, who blew past the bus’s flashing stop sign.
“Bikers need to abide the laws,” said community activist Gary Schlesinger, who’s been leading a social media campaign that highlights bikers behaving badly in Brooklyn. “Passing a stopped school bus that’s a terrible thing, because it’s almost impossible not to hit a child.”
In May, another bicyclist sped through a bus’s stop sign and hit a child; another raced through a red light and crashed into a woman pushing a baby stroller.
“People feel frustrated at so many accidents happening,” Schlesinger said.
So frustrated, in fact, they’ve begun taking matters into their own hands. One bus nearly hit a bicyclist trying to block him from going past.
“That is absolutely dangerous,” said Schlesinger.
Parents and drivers Layton spoke with said they’re concerned that if the NYPD doesn’t step up enforcement fast, a child might get seriously hurt.
Bicyclists who abide by the law say that reckless reputation isn’t fair and car drivers are even more dangerous.
“People don’t realize, they’re not looking out for bikers,” cyclist Mandel Levine said. “There needs to be more awareness about that.”
Bottom line: If they’re sharing the roads, it’s a shared responsibility to respect the rules and protect kids in the community.
CBS2 reached out to the NYPD to ask how it plans to enforce the rules and if it plans to step up its presence there, but did not hear back.
Virginia Beach | First Landing State Park Camping | (2018) Changing Lanes!
We visited VA Beach in May of this year (2018). Although Chad used to live in the area for the Navy, it had been nearly 25 years since he was there. I (Tara) had never been there and never really spent any time in the state of Virginia. (that is going to change!)
We arrived in Virginia Beach exhausted after two long days of travel, a traffic jam and a wrong turn down a residential street that Chad would end up having to back the rig all the way back up! By the time we finally arrived at First Landing State Park, most of the good first-come-first-serve spots were already taken, so we settled on a site that backed up to the noisy Shore Drive. Luckily, we were able to move sites the next morning and ended up with a beach house for the week!! We got the best site in the entire park and had amazing views!!
Although Chad lived in the area for 5 years, he had never ridden a motorcycle across the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel. So, we did just that!! It was both amazing and a bit scary (for me at least). There are 2 underwater tunnels and 3 bridges that landed us over on the Eastern Shore of Virginia and, eventually to Cape Charles. Cape Charles was a charming little town that gave us a feeling of stepping back in time.
During our stay, Chad was able to reconnect with a longtime friend of his, Dave, and his two boys. It was great for me to spend time with them as well and for Dave to show us around town (and to treat us to the best sushi ever!)
We were able to get on the motorcycle (Lucile) a second time, so we could check out the other side of First Landing State Park and for Chad to show me around the beach strip.
For a first-timer to Virginia Beach, I loved it!!! And for Chad, it was great for him to go back to a place where he spent so much time and made so many memories. We even took a civilian tour of his old workplace - Norfolk Naval Base / Naval Air Station!!
I hope to get back to First Landing and (hopefully) get Site 7 again!! Our time in Virginia was not limited to VA Beach, so stay tuned for our an upcoming video on Williamsburg!!
