    Visiting the Monster

    Well, now I know where the kids and I are going to visit this weekend. We explored further down Rockwood road a couple weeks ago. We went right on by and explored further down Rockwood road. I don’t even think of going there then. Thanks for the idea.

    Batsto Country Living Fair

    Yes, we were there around noon. They ran two passes and saved the one piece of white cedar that resulted. I was watching from the exact vantage point that you took that picture from. In your pic you can see all new wood that they replaced to be able to open that door.

    The sawmill cut its first board in years. They spent weeks getting it ready for Sunday. They even made a new babbitt bearing.

    Deep Run Yet Again!

    It was great to see you guys out there. We made a brief stop at Hampton. The water is so low the wood remains under the bridge are now exposed. We were running short on time so we didn’t stick around but plan to go back and explore a little more. This is looking straight down from the bridge.

    I believe that one was contained, but it’s in the same direction. Could be the same one.

    Increased risk of fire spread today

    Update: After picking up my son we decided to investigate. There’s clearly 2 separate fires. One looks like it’s towards Friendship and another much further away possibly Fort Dix area.

    My daughter got her first car. It didn’t have the front bracket. She really didn’t want to put it on. I warned her she might get pulled over. Within a month she got pulled over for it. That night she ordered the bracket

    Northern Lights Over the Pines

    My son called me to come pick him up. When I walked out the door (which faces west) I saw a pink sky but no clouds. When I looked north the sky was completely red. I didn’t even know there was a chance for the northern lights that day.

    Closing West Mill Road

    It’s not the first time a large tree was dropped across that entrance. My blood boils every time I think about that situation. I was down Rockwood Road yesterday. It was completely dry and I easily made it to West Mill Road. The sand is very soft and deep though.

    large block off RR in Atsion?

    Do you know when the Atco spur tracks were removed? I believe I was told in the 1920’s. In the 1930s aerial it looks like they are removed in Atco but it kind of looks like there’s still tracks crossing 206.

    Goshen in Camden or Burlington?

    With the low water now is a good time to explore the ruins just down stream from the beidge on Old Atsion Rd. It is nearly completely exposed. There are some vertical uprights still attached. The water was just a bit cold though lol.
