The Red Covered Bridge in Princeton still transports vehicle traffic. There are many reasons to visit Princeton.
Shopping is one.
Ragamuffins, a children's clothing store, makes an adult long for pre-school days. What used to be a grain elevator now houses seven specialty shops and Kristi-Jean's tea room. But shopping isn't what lured me to Princeton. While researching a food story, one of my sources, a transplanted West Coast writer, chided me over the telephone. Her charge fell on ears familiar with the Ivy League university in New Jersey, not the town in Illinois where she lived for five years.
