There is some kind of large facility already there (see attachment). It appears to be large and functioning, whatever it is, so I doubt it they want to build it there. They probably want to build it in the woods.

I explored those woods from 1969 I think it was - right after that article appeared in the travel section of the NY Times - the one about the "windswept pines" - I posted it on here - through the mid 1990's when I moved west, plus some memorable forays down there since. Actually though I...

Yes!

I love dandelions. They are loaded with vitamins.

Beautiful! My two favorites are Window View and Night Awakens. I'm out in the desert too. There was an unusual celestial sight last week, the crescent moon and Jupiter. I took photos of it, but just with my pocket camera. I'm sure there are far better ones online.

Pretty pictures. I miss the Pine Barrens. Except for the ticks.

I don't recall ever seeing a single policeman in those woods back in the old days, but I also never encountered any trouble in there, and times have changed.

Looks like a gang that would roll in right next to me while I'm spending a nice peaceful night camping out listening to the wind and the tree frogs.

See my avatar? That's me looking like Paul Bunyan towering over the Plains pine forest, but that was back in the 1970's. It was taken south of Route 72 which cuts right through the Plains. But I don't think the dwarf forests are so short any more. It was quite an experience being there back...

State amphibians don't outrank state monsters, do they? I wouldn't want to see any animosity develop between the J.D. and tree frogs or vice versa, over grant money or profits on t-shirt sales and so forth.

Here's an interesting link that I'll have to look at. He seems to touch upon the subject of using the Nuvi off road, which is my big question about it - whether I'll be able to find my favorite dirt road unmarked locations. Looks like plenty of other interesting stuff in here too. Garmin GPS...

Thanks, Boyd. I'm still uncertain what to do. I was reading a little more GPS forums and specs. I've used the Garmin 176/276 pattern daily for years now and I'm used to it. I'm still looking into the Garmin tech's idea that I buy two, a Nuvi and an off road (but not the 76/78 that he...

Is there just one auto mount that's best? I've got a mount screwed into my dash board for my 276 - 2 parts + rubber ball to grip. I don't suppose I could get a top part adapter for it to fit the Montana... What else do you need to buy along with the Montana? Guess I'll need to buy the City...

I guess the Montana is the way go for me. You need to buy an auto mount separately, huh? Does it pop in and out of the auto mount very easily? I understand all the new models do. My 276 does not. The sales guys said that I can return it any time if I don't like it. REI's return policy seems...

Thanks, Dogg. Good to know. Why is Permethrin hard to find? Is it dangerous or something?

Hey, yet another money-making law for the politicians in New Jersey! Do you have red light cameras and speed cameras there too? That's a big money making racket here in Arizona, and cops hiding every 20 feet waiting for some honest motorist to make some slight faux pax (= $$$).

Ticks are the one outdoor thing I'm afraid of, and when I lived back east that's why I stopped going down to the Barrens so much. That was the worst place I've ever been for ticks. I had so many on me down there. Well, maybe the Ozarks were just as bad, come to think of it, if not worse. When I...

I haven't looked up the specs on 76 and 78 yet, but I told him I don't use the marine aspect of my 276, and he was suggesting those for off road use to go along with a Nuvi for on road use. Does that two machine - instead of one Montana - idea make sense to you? Maybe I only got a fast...
