    Music for the day

    Here's something very smooth. Nice. Check out the sax man before he launches in. Looks like he had taken a strong drug and it just kicked in. But very good musicians for sure.

    Music for the day

    This was an outlier in early 80's music. I loved this album by Wall of Voodoo, featuring the musical genius of Stan Ridgway. Here mocking tenderfeet going out west to be somebody. Call of the West He got the high sign so he jumped a bus And along the roads that wind on through The hot Mojave...

    The Emma Cramer and Garfield Broome Stones

    Many people enjoy both history and the Pines, and your posts are always interesting in that regard. And you, of course, go where they've never been, either due to to apprehension, or inability, or just lack of time. In effect, you are their ticket to both history and our wild Pine Barrens.

    I did find some of the Frienship photos. Let's just say it's not out of the question that the seeds came from there, but we'll never know for sure. There is one tree on the right in one of the photos does seem to have leaves that could fit the bill.

    Along The Tulpehocken Today

    A friend from my office went out there today, and it actually has buds now. She says its a possibility that it's Bigtooth Aspen (Populus grandidentata). I'm in favor of that ID, though not totally there yet. I know German thought of an Aspen too, but that big leaf with my hand on it is huge for...

    Vermont Fish and Wildlife proposes new fees for recreation on state lands

    I see the problem. They are taxed to death, and so now trying to only tax single groups instead, so not all the citizens will be up in arms. Vermont asks its citizens to pay state income tax, state sales and use tax, property tax, and various other taxes including those on meals, rooms...

    One of my favorite movies. Moves along at a good pace. Funny and musical. In particular I like that song Wandering Star.

    Beer (again)

    Never had this before, picked it up tonight. First sip reaction: "damn, this is good ale"! Fermented in "Yorkshire Stone Squares". 6% alchohol. Rich, malty, smooth, tasty.
