    NJPineBarrens.com in 2011

    Ben, I get regular updates for the events in Bass River and Wharton. I am sure I can get other stuff just as easy. I would be happy to help trying to keep the calendar full. I also use the Live Maps fairly regularly and there are plenty of photo hosting places out there. I use Flickr and...

    Chilean miners being rescued....

    It is wild to see how every culture/area deals with a situation. I was thinking a lot about this today. My first thought was to get the sickly/week out. But then again I never had to deal with so much. When we switched from "rescue" to "recovery" at the WTC, we often talked about what we...

    Jersey Devil

    I saw it Guy. I just had a bunch of stuff going on and forgot all about it until this morning. I LOVE stuff like this. I'm sorry I didn't post sooner now, lol. On a couple of the sites I belong to, I have designated threads for the "figure it out" type stuff. Sometimes it gets good...

    Chilean miners being rescued....

    I saw the first one come out last night. It is really amazing! I can't even begin to imagine that experience. I have a question though. As I was watching it last night, I heard them say this: "The strongest miners will get out first. Then the sick ones. Last will be those considered brave...

    Heart of the Pines...

    Just wanted to put this out there for all that haven't read it yet. Or heard of it. Since coming to these forums a few years back, people kept referring to a book. "Heart of the Pines" by John E. Pearce. I had read all of Father Beck's stuff and was looking for more. This sounded like the...

    Makepeace Lake water levels and a question

    Thanks for the info Joyce. It really is a beautiful lake. We saw tons of egrets and although I was told there is always a chance of seeing an eagle or two, I wasn't so lucky. Also saw some otter ripplings on the water, but couldn't spot any of those either. I didn't bring waders, but...

    Wow! I was out paddling with a friend on Makepeace Lake today and could not believe the water level! What is normally and 6-8 foot deep lake, at its deepest point today wasn't more than a foot and a half deep. Stumps sticking out everywhere, paddles covered in alga and a good 50 ft of...

    Rain

    I was at the College (ACCC) when it started. We were scheduled to be there until 9:15. Around 7:15 the skies opened up; by 7:45 we lost internet connection and couldn't do any more work. So we headed out. The Black Horse Pike was a trip. Most lights out and jug handles closed. I took the...

    Chigger Relief

    I carry a lint brush in the car and roll my clothes and skin. Seems to get most of the little suckers off. Of course they can be quick and my hikes can be long. Sometimes they get me before I get back to the car.... Think I would remember to put it in my pack....
