Yet another new NJ tick ... Not good news.... https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2018/02/27/588408433/asian-ticks-mysteriously-turned-up-on-a-new-jersey-sheep

Maybe a drain pipe arrangement Iused on the pond near Parker Preserve North Gate eight (1) keep water levels low for the plants and (2) prevent the beavers from re-building?

There's a bridge closure/repair on the road south from Dukes Bridge/Chatsworth to the area just northwest of Lake Oswego - think part was called Tuckerton Rd. It's been closed since last summer at the 1st cedar swamp going south from Dukes Bridge. In the '60's we used it to access Oswego Lake...

This presentation is available at: <http://www.nj.gov/pinelands/about/events/Howe_PSC_LichenEcology_14Mar2015_3.pdf> It's suitable for the general public visiting the Pines; it's explaining the lichens they may see. Thus I thought it appropriate for this Forum. BTW, Ro and I met Natalie in...

Thanks very much for posting, Guy.

1000's of fire breaks? Anyone got an idea what effect that might have on wildlife? The Pinelands require fire to continue its historical processes. This sounds like "Smokey Bear Squared" to me. And we know what that misguided practice resulted in out west. And 30 day permit process is...

If they own the property, especially in fee simple, by what right does the State have to demolish or do anything on the property?

Redneck 350: That's yhr spot. Many thanks for the explanation. I wondered if the road had been "dedicated", and if so, by whom? That should settle "who's in charge" arguments, if there were no later arrangements. We were coming back from Vineland and travel service said to turn off 73 onto...

Ro & I went for a drive down Jackson Rd from route 541/Stokes Rd. We were shocked to see signs "Road Closed" and found concrete barriers across the road at the north edge of a lake at about the Camden/Burlington county line. Thought this was a public road? Who gave authority to block it? Why?

Very interesting article about recently deciphered Babylonian clay tablet. Hope all of article and video comes thru. johnny b...

Russ Anderson Road runs north off 532/Chatsworth-Tabernacle Rd west of Chatsworth Lake. Who was Russ Anderson? Why is this piece of the road named for him?

Bob, I've no idea how "they" situated the stone. For that matter, one could wonder how accurate the survey was done and when. Let me tell you one time about "where is Bermuda?" - a true story of location something on the earth's surface. From my days helping build the most precise (and...

My daughter Ann says Colorado is written on two sides; she, too, wondered why it's not triangular. Maybe Colorado paid for it? or they have largest chunk of adjoining territory? or they were 1st to put the stone in?

imkms: Good question - I'll see if Kat or Ann noticed that. PBX: Rotate that diamond on your diagram 180 degrees and I think it would work fine.

Here's the picture:

it's not the Pines, but I just had to post this to show Teagate easy stone hunting out west. Picture of my granddaughter Kat on a trek with her mom, Ann, at Black Mesa, OK (highest point). Stone marks junction NM, OK, and Co - but has 4 sides, 2 for Co. Why not triangular???

There's a pond full of Nelumbo (American lotus) north of Hammonton on the west side of U.S.30 right next to the road. Ro made a beautiful picture of one in bloom. BUT, I think they're through for this year.

RedneckF350 - hey, no offense taken, rather enjoyed reading viewpoints. You oughta hear what I say , when following some denizen down Retreat Rd obviously on way there. Not fit for public consumption.....

Bob, I remembered the original PBX report post, mentioned the long-gone cotton mill but sadly I'd forgotten Jerseyman's wonderful account. We came here from 8 acres w/ 3/4 acre pond holding 7.5 lb bigmouth "Bugga" and abt 4,000 square foot wood stove heated log home we built bordering old...

Anyone know the source/s of the name of this settlement in Southampton Twp at Retreat and Big Hill Roads? Learned from report here of a PBX that it long ago had a cotton mill, now bordered by Leisuretown. We found a big, abandoned concrete dam and spillway in woods nearby.
