I walked up on this in an open pine grove yesterday. I looked around like, who put this here? No other bones. Looks like a 10 pointer. I don't know how common that is in our Pine Barrens.

I have to admit, I did not look at the leaves, and I winged it because the bark is familiar to me, and points to Sassafras. I have a book that id's trees by the bark, and it could be tulip or black walnut too. I'll slide by there again in the coming days.

When I was younger, I did a couple years standing before a lathe and a milling machine. I made blanks for better machinists to finish with the detail work. Before that, for a year I drove a forklift and filled orders at a wire and cable company in Mount Holly. So, I do know blue collar, and this...

These phrags are leaving town on this boat when the tide comes in. Now I see how they get around. They ignored me when I asked where they were off to.

This is one of the biggest I've ever seen. I'll let someone ID it. It has to be almost a foot in diameter.

This one has an interesting pattern. I swear, sometimes I think they are a different species.

I saw three box turtles who had dug into the edge of a brackish marsh, all in different areas. Two of the photos are below. What's up with that?

That's a nice photo on the Shane Guy. The smoke gave it some pizzaz too.

Sue, what about those electronic ones that people wear. Are they any good?

"Cover up the chemical receptors"? Sounds dubious, we don't put it on the ticks, we use it on us. Maybe it's just how she worded it.

Yes, they did say they have not really figured out why it works. They only have theories.

Actually, I did too sleep the night through when I used it.

Are you the same Gibby who was assembling all the data he could to publish something about the Giberson name? It was maybe 12 years ago.

I bought some of those 25% Deet wipes. Never used them before, but I'm wary about the mosquito situation now at my age. So, I used just one each for the last 3 plant surveys. But even with one wipe, I was personally wiped out by 4 in the afternoon. I'd put the cell alarm on for a 15 minute nap...

I was in Whiting for a doctor visit Monday so I dropped into the Stop and Shop to pick some up. I was shocked to see this. I made a joke about it to the vegetable man working there, and he ignored me. Then I saw him speaking to a lady shopper about me. I did not buy them at that price.

That makes sense. I recall on the way back, that I had to get into that narrow rectangle to cross 73. That was odd, because there was no arrow in it, and since I was at the stop sign, I could not see if that was what I had to do. And I saw that people on my left were waiting for me to do it, and...

When I cross 73 moving WNW on Braddock Mill road, and I want to turn left onto Kresson-Gibbsboro road, why is this big square with the X greeting me. Am I not allowed to turn there? That is one funky intersection.

I wonder...perhaps local citizens, wanting to head (no pun intended) into the swamp from where they lived, always went to a certain entry point. Since back then it was more common to walk and roam (often for economic reasons such as trapping), going to the head of the swamp was simply that point...

Did you ever have an old song sneak up on you later in life and suddenly you love it? This one did it for me. It's really brilliantly done. I love how it lifts up higher in the middle of it.

Are they a little tart? I like them that way.
