    Wet Forest - Formerly Known as Dry Forest

    Nothing at all here. Around 9:00 last night some thunder shook the house, I saw the storm on radar pretty far to the North but figured it was coming here. Never happened though. Just went out for a morning walk and stayed a little too long, got soaked walking back to the house in the rain. But...

    Murder or Suicide?

    It's all pretty crazy. Even if something is clearly in the public domain a copyright troll could challenge it anyway and a lawyer might be needed to get rid of them. In the end, it's just a judgement call for Ben.

    Murder or Suicide?

    Fine with me, but it's completely up to Ben. I'll point it out to him. My understanding is that a newspaper article over 100 years old is not subject to copyright - if you have the physical newspaper or a photocopy of it. But if it came from a website, then it's likely subject to copyright (as...

    Wet Forest - Formerly Known as Dry Forest

    This is going to be an interesting week for weather, sunny tomorrow and then cooling way down with high probabilities of rain. The remnants of hurricane Debby are supposed to move through here later in the week, so we might be looking at lots of rain. Just heard it's expected to move slow and...

    Wet Forest - Formerly Known as Dry Forest

    It's moving out now, got some rain here, didn't seem like a lot. There are more storms down in Virginia and North Carolina that might find their way up here later tonight. But the heavy rain appears to be in Ocean and Burlington counties right now, this warning is currently in effect...

    Wet Forest - Formerly Known as Dry Forest

    Just came in from a walk, the wind started blowing (felt refreshing on a hot muggy night!) and sky got dark here. No rain so far, it's all tracking North of me. There are some cells in Maryland headed my way though.

    Snake in my car!

    Was thinking about this some more and it doesn't seem likely he was in the car since last Friday. I brought the empty garbage can back to the house yesterday in the car, am thinking was inside, came out and hid in the car while I drove back to the house.

    Snake in my car!

    Came home this morning after an errand and a drive on some back roads, shut the car off and looked on the passenger seat to find.... a small green snake! :eek: He looked out the door when I opened it but wouldn't go out on his own. Finally had to grab him and toss him out onto the grass. I don't...

    Origins of Pestletown

    This made me think of Jenkins Neck. :) https://boydsmaps.com/#15.00/39.688689/-74.534380/legacy24k/0.00/0.00 I did a quick search of current USGS Geographic Name Information System (GNIS) data and only found these "necks" in Southern NJ. Seems to mainly be used on the Delaware coast today...

    Lock Your Vehicles

    Right. Telling the police that you're going to kill some people if they don't do what you want is always a good stategy. Hopefully you would succeed in resisting that temptation. :D

    Cape May County Explorations

    Interesting. I know nothing about spiders, but there was lots of talk about them back when I lived there. Just found this... "In New York, bites attributed to brown recluse spiders are almost certainly from yellow sac spiders."...
