    GEICO Insurance

    Just to add my own two cents to this scintillating discussion I would recommend that you check your level of coverage for uninsured or underinsured motorists. If you, and potentially any passengers, are involved in an accident and the party at fault has no or little liability coverage you may...

    Old pic of pine plains

    Don't think it's the exact photo you're referring to but may of the YouTube clips about the Jetport that was proposed in the 1960's have photos similar to what you described. It's also interesting to see how the height of the sand bordering route 72 has decreased.

    Your PB Hike Recommendations?

    Suggest you look at some combination of the three trails at Franklin Parker Preserve. It checks a lot of the boxes you mentioned in your post and with a little planning you can end your day where you started. I’d also look at hiking the NJ Central railroad tracks starting at Atsion or Carranza...

    Pinelands Commission Question

    If someone wants to clear-cut roughly one acre of a 1.3 acre residential property (Tabernacle) do they need to apply to the Pinelands Commission? I’ve been reading the Commission’s website for 90 minutes and now have cataracts and a migraine, but no answer. Any help is deeply appreciated.

    Gene Autry

    I respectfully disagree. Arnold Ziffel was clearly the best actor on the show.

    Wharton State Forest 1966 Visitor Map nearly identical to 2024 draft Visitor Map

    I have an alternative idea. Perhaps tax-exempt organizations that utilize the Pine Barrens for business purposes and revenue generating activities should be required to make payments in lieu of taxes. These payments could be used to fund increased enforcement efforts. Personally, I find...

    Xfinity Cable Service Increase

    Whether it's a good or bad thing depends on your individual circumstances..Person#1 may live close to a cell tower and not have many neighbors so the 5 g signal they get is strong and doesn't buffer. Person #2 may not be near a cell tower and may share his signal with thousands of people who...

    Xfinity Cable Service Increase

    Not sure who your cellphone carrier is but if you have 5g watch a video on your phone for five minutes when you’re not on Wi-Fi. Try to do it at night when the younger generation is streaming and gaming. That’s close to the same internet service you’ll get from your carrier if you dump Comcast...

    Forked River Mountain Hike

    I went to Forked River Mtn on November 15th, before the recent rains, driving a Jeep LJ that's raised four inches and has 33x12.5 m/s tires. Went in through the Jones and Bryant Rds. entrance and left via the Lacey Rd. exit. Even with the Jeep I wouldn't attempt the trip after the recent...
