    Poking Around

    My take; it is a Mid-Century American Industraial Steno Desk Chair 1960s. But I didn't sit in one of those until the 1970s.

    Even so; do you think I'm correct. I'm going with the number and shape of the scutes going across the capapace on a young one.

    Poking Around

    Bob; I believe it is a young Chrysemys picta picta (aka Easttrn Painted Turtle) It's common in the wild.

    Shortleaf Pines

    Just this past week, I noticed two large Shortleaf Pines in a Green Acres area in a suburbia setting, a good 13 miles east of Atsion Lake. It was the large plate-like bark that made me believe it was a shortleaf. I got confirmation that it was. I forgot that this pine has small holes in its...

    Bass River Fire

    As Boyd said, I too saw the sun orange in color at about 7:00PM But when I took a photo, it looked as shown in my attached pic. I went to a different advantage point about 10 minutes later, but I could not see the sun at all.. I was trying to get a photo of the sun sitting right above the...

    Bass River Fire

    I read one of the news outlets covering the Flatiron Fire, that said it is the known name (at least to someone) the area of the fire.

    Tool?

    I'll keep looking, but I don't see a socket, unless it's one of those small bulbs for an old flashlight. Did you take the photo or saw the tool? And I don't think it is a rug beater,

    Where is this?

    I think I know the clue, but I still don't know where it is at. The only place I've seen water that color was on 3 Foot Branch Rd, down from Cevetto Rd coming out of Warren Grove. Still looking.

    Off The Beaten Path

    For me to experience the full appreciation of what the Pine Barrens has to offer, I like to adventure 'off the beaten path' deep in the woods and maybe find places that no one has been in a long time. Recently, I sorted though many of my old photos. There's a selected few. (Another batch of...

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

    I checked the web site. It states that access to drive on the beach is for the sole purpose of fishing. You can interpret it the way you want. I've seen trucks on the beach with the camper tops where the whole family is there. The kids playing in the water, Mom sitting on the beach under an...

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

    I don't believe so, but most people who get the permit are fishermen. What I had read on a Tackle Shop Facebook page, you are probably already too late in getting a permit. There is a list of the required equipment you need to carry in the vehicle. The Island Beach SP web site would give you...

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

    I had mention this before on another post about the $195 permit fee. That is an annual fee to drive our Mobile Sportfishing Vehicle (4-Wheel Drive) on the beach at Island Beach SP. There is a limited number of permits available per year. At the toll booth (only one entrance) there is a day...

    Blind Boat And A Blind

    Also, if you go into NJPB Maps, Satellite view, and move the map over to where Jackson Rd crosses the Mullica River, and then zoom in, the image will turn to 'bird eye'. But I don't get it in Bing Maps.

    Where is this?

    Bob, you know me well enough now that I'm always up for a challenge. I've been exploring the Pines for the past 13 years, using the MAP feature on the Forum extensively in planning my trips. So I know the land features in the core area of the Pine Barrens quite well. Looking at the land...

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

    Yes, there is a quota for the yearly permit to drive on the beach. More then likely they are already sold out. I believe there is a special three day permit. Ever since 1971 when I started surf fishing in the Park, there has always been a entrance fee. I being over 62, I get in free. So...
