Yeah, it really didn't get very dark, no more than a cloudy day. I think the last eclipse was darker here. I was in my woods, out back. The dark clouds rolled in on cue, right at the peak of the eclipse. But before they did, I was really struck by how crisp all the shadows were, due to the...

Actually, I would say just the opposite - the cloud cover made it possible to get some interesting pix with my phone and I wouldn't have gotten anything on a clear day. These were shot on my iPhone 12 Pro Max with no filter, handheld, no editing. Not great art, but I like the clouds in the...

Just another day, will be out wandering around the woods as usual and see what the effect is here. Don't have any of them "eclipse glasses", but I might put on my Count Floyd 3d Glasses™ and watch Doctor Tongue's 3d House of Stewardesses! :dance:

Exactly what road is that? Apparently it is here, but are they talking about the section of Mt. Misery road Northwest of Rt 70 (don't know that road, is it even paved)? That is about 3.3 miles long. Why would they spend money on that? Seems more likely they're talking about the L-shaped...

Decided to check things out in Peaslee today for the first time since the big rains. Tried two different roads that are normally very dry, but there was major flooding I didn't want to drive through within a hundred feet from where the roads left the pavement, so I just gave up. Could be awhile...

Apparently there have been multiple aftershocks. Did not notice any here but was doing housecleaning with the vacuum cleaner running. :) https://pix11.com/news/local-news/new-jersey/2-aftershocks-reported-near-epicenter-of-new-jersey-earthquake/...

The link I posted above lists a bunch of USGS products, including the shake map https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us7000ma74/executive Very different from 2011 for me. Back then, I happened to be standing at the end of a long straight hall in my home. I literally saw the...

Epicenter was evidently around here https://boydsmaps.com/#15.00/40.683463/-74.753184/legacy24k/0.00/0.00 more maps and info here https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us7000ma74/executive

Caught my attention too. First thought was "earthquake", but then the cat came running into the room and I thought she had knocked something over in the other room. :D My daughter texted from NYC just then and said it was really strong there, the chandelier was swinging and pets freaking out. It...

Well, I might have if it was actually 1965... but not now. :D Big fan of the early pre-1965 (acoustic) Dylan, but less so as the years passed. The way he treated Joan Baez was pretty awful, there's a good documentary about his tour to England back then. The filmmaker built his own custom super...

Apparently, they are recreating the famous Dylan Newport Folk Festival concert in Cape May... and you can be in it! :cool: New York casting agency Grant Wilfley Casting has posted a casting call looking for "Cape May locals" to work as extras in a feature film shooting in Cape May from May...

The National Weather Service has posted a briefing for today's storms here https://www.weather.gov/media/phi/current_briefing.pdf

Reminds me of that scene with Donald Sutherland in Animal House... Pinto: OK, so that means that our whole solar system could be like one tiny atom in the fingernail of some other giant being... This is nuts! That means that one tiny atom in my fingernail could be... Jennings: ...could be one...

"Meh"...

Don't want to spoil the fun, so just a note that I've split these posts off from the boydsmaps forum into a new thread in the General Discussion forum. As John McClain said in Die Hard... "I was always kinda partial to Roy Rogers actually. I really like those sequined shirts." :D

Event Summary: boydsmaps.com went down at 7:30 PM on Friday, March 29 and came back up at 9:00 PM on Tuesday, April 2 with full restoration of all content by 7:00 PM on Thursday, April 4. To make a long story short, the hosting company rushed into migrating the site to a new server without...

Found this old sheet music in a junk store long ago and put it on the wall in the bathroom where it's slowly disintegrated over the years from the humidity. :D

As I just posted here, the upgrade wrapped up a little ahead of schedule today. There are still a few things to do, but I don't expect them to impact site performance (unless there are problems). Enjoy the holiday weekend!

Looks like I'm finishing this up a bit ahead of schedule. :dance: Here's the 3d version of Cadillac Mountain I haven't spent any time at all checking this out, will do that soon. In the meantime... be my guest and post any problems you encounter. I still have a number of things to do such as...

No need to clear any caches. I'm sure it's just this, surprised you didn't notice until yesterday, this work has been going 24/7 all week. Definitely having a big effect on site performance. With a little luck, tomorrow will be the last day...
