Tuesday is the constitutionally-mandated State of the State address, which means we New Jerseyans will be hosting a rare visitor: Gov. Chris Christie!

As gracious hosts, we have taken it upon ourselves to highlight for the governor some of the worthwhile sites whose charm and appeal may have faded into memory during the 261 days of 2015 he spent out of state.

The governor likely wants to get back on the campaign trail as soon as possible after his brief visit. So we created this guided tour -- a half-day itinerary that enables him to see some notable sites after his 3 p.m. address and still be back in his New Hampshire hotel room by a reasonable hour so he can be well rested for the next day of work in the Granite State.

1) 4 to 4:30 p.m.: Richard Hughes Justice Complex, Trenton

Sometimes referred to as the "Death Star" for its architecture, this building is where the New Jersey Supreme Court sits. If court is in session, a visitor can take a seat in the gallery, count the justices and confirm that Christie, despite going on "Face the Nation" this week and telling voters his appointments created a Republican majority on the court, that hasn't actually happened. Where else can tourists experience the thrills of doing their own fact checking!

2) 6 to 7:30 p.m.: Atlantic City

We head east along the Atlantic City Expressway and as we enter Atlantic County, our tour guide mentions some superlatives: "This region is home to one of the world's largest freshwater aquifers and the nation's highest home foreclosure rate!"

We arrive in Atlantic City in time for dinner. For someone returning to Atlantic City after some time away, the most striking development is the missing name atop the giant white building that dominates the vista as you enter the downtown area. It no longer has the words "Trump Plaza" on it, a nice change for a traveler who might be looking for an escape from all things Trump-related for a day. No, we didn't have the giant "Trump" sign taken down just for Christie. The casino -- and three others -- have all gone belly up in recent years. But we'll tell him we did it just for him. Sssshhh!

3) 9 p.m: Monmouth County

New Hamphsire beckons, so after dinner it's time to start heading north. A short trip up the Garden State Parkway passes a visitor through the 11th legislative district. This is the site of a surprise upset last November in which two Republican legislators were dumped out of their seats in a race widely seen as a backlash against Christie, whose approval ratings have plummeted here. Yikes! Who put this on the itinerary? Pedal to the metal, driver. No stopping and looking around here!

4) 9:30 p.m.: Joe D's place

Our tour passes through Essex County where we stop off for a surprise visit at the home of our guest's BFF, the magical Joe DiVincenzo. Is he a magician, you ask? Well sort of. The Democratic Essex County executive daily performs the amazing New Jersey trick of being retired from the same job you still get paid a salary for. At any rate, Joe owes our client for some favors, namely taking the teeth out of the state Election Law Enforcement Commission, so maybe he'll share a glass of his best Merlot. We stop and knock on Joe's door. But it seems he's in Puerto Rico on some kind of campaign jaunt. Hardest working man in politics.

5) 10 p.m: On the road again

The Tappan Zee Bridge (Star-Ledger file photo)

On our way out of New Jersey we recommend our visitor remain on Route 287 and take the Tappan Zee Bridge en route to New England because the bridge's toll is $4.75. The other option, the George Washington Bridge, recently went up to $10.50 thanks to a plan put in place by Christie allies on the Port Authority. There's some other bad memories associate with that bridge we might not want to conjure up, either. The best tour guide always want to keep the client happy so he'll come back for another visit. And maybe he'll even bring us some New Hampshire maple syrup on his next visit.
