Hi! I'm not that close to Short Hills Mall, but I go to my friend's house in Wayne -- and then she drives there. It's probably at least 30 min. from her house. We like that mall, however, and after all, we've got to give all of them a shot now and then. I'm about 10 min north of Paramus--right near the NYS Thruway in Mahwah. If I were to go to SHM from my house, I'd take the Garden State Parkway--and I think it'd take about 45 minutes. Gotta learn to use that darn navigation system that came with the car!
