Driving to North Jersey, again

Over the last year and a half, I've had to drive to North Jersey for various tasks related to settling my father's estate.  There have been many visits to the lawyer's office and the bank.  I tried to bundle something "different" to accompany most trips.  They were often emotionally hard and took a lot out of me.  Today, I stopped at my favorite restaurant in Iselin and had a quiet lunch alone.
