    Spotting scope for wildlife

    I am looking for a small, portable spotting scope, I have trouble with binoculars, getting the two images together. I was thinking of a monoscope, and it must be small, or it won't come along. I was looking at Celestron's hummingbird but am not sold. Any suggestions...

    Trepidations

    That's up by the office far from the Hill, which was owned by Bob Drayton. He put in my septic and pumps it, very well-known and regarded. My mom lives on a lake here since 2000 and I never heard of a problem. If you don't mind restrictions, it is a good place to live. marlborough Drive.

    Trepidations

    I know several people who live in Giesertowne, including my mother. She is on Marlborough Dr, quite a bit away. I haven't heard of any complaints and there is municipal water. There is a monthly rag put out by Liesuretowne called The Watch Dog. You could stop by the office and maybe get a copy...

    DEP Announces Virtual Public Meeting to Launch Wharton State Forest Visitor and Vehicle Use Survey

    I don't know if it was officially canceled but the Batona Camp is jammed with 4 wheeling happy campers with dogs and children. As I was driving home there were many more coming down Carranza Road. It looks like fun; I'd like to join them.

    Seafood in the Pines

    I tried Westminister crackers from Amazon. Good, small, not hard and get soggy quickly. The box has 150 small bags.:eek::eek::eek::eek: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0025L1TZC?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1

    Where is this?

    post 2009, yes there is something written on it on the bottom of one of the slabs. It needs a wire brushing and may be a mirror, it is upside down. I will locate it

    Where is this?

    In the concrete rubble there is something written when the concrete was wet. It would take some effort to expose it all. It might be a fun project.

    Where is this?

    A bit of local lore: If you walk toward the Skit from that spot, you will cross a concrete raceway. Continue along the dam, it ends. Locally it is called The Breached Causeway and I was told it was dynamited.

    I do, and there is another plaque on the same tree. I'll give others a crack at it.

    Eggs in the Pines

    I never could do oysters. Clams are OK but Scott's clams casino are excellent!

    Eggs in the Pines

    I love them. My wife makes them using dried mustard. I like them hot, but like you Bob, my body has been revolting. It used to be if I got it past my mouth, I never heard from it again. I mentioned the olives and she said it would work. I put in my request for New Years.

    Seafood in the Pines

    My father introduced me to them, he gave me so much and I never realized it at the time. He keeps on giving. He died in 1978. :smug:

    Seafood in the Pines

    I can't find Trenton Oyster Crackers anymore. They were the best, hard as rocks.

    Where is this?

    We locals call it the dog park. It is used for many activities. Decorating trees is an annual event. The NJFFS cuts them down when they encounter them. The field is burnt every March, sort of sterilizing it but apparently the ants survive. There is a group of wierdos from Connecticut that come...
