    Forked River Mountains in 2022

    Wow, so Jones Rd. is bad now? I used to take my Honda Ridgeline down it without any problems. This is really sad.

    Forked River Mountains in 2022

    About a decade ago, when I still had a 4WD vehicle, I'd often go to the summit of the Forked River Mountain at night and stare at the stars for an hour or two. My Adobe Lightroom library tells me that the last time I was out there was March of 2012. Anyway, I know that ownership changed or...

    Getting to Mount / Washington without a mudder vehicle or dirtbike?

    Get yourself an external bluetooth GPS and then you can pair any regular iPad to it and not have to pay the premium for the cellular model or the monthly service for it.

    Double Trouble getting trimmed.

    JeffD. If you feel like going down memory lane, all of those old posts from Robert Blanda's old Pine Barrens forum are available here.

    Finding an Old Book

    Just in case anybody wonders what happened, here's the threat from the lawyers representing the people who eventually came to own the copyright for that article. Ultimately I had to hire an attorney to tell them to kick rocks, and I don't really want to have to do that again. Bob, on further...

    Finding an Old Book

    I hate to be the wet blanket here, but posting photos of newspaper articles (without permission from the copyright owner) that are still under copyright can, and once did, get me sued. I'm not a copyright attorney and they may have been okay under Fair Use, but right now I'm not in a position...

    Gas Price

    If you're near the Parkway the stations in the rest areas can only change their price once a week. It might be the same for the Turnpike, too.

    Our view: Promising new DEP steps on pinelands use, protection

    I'm glad that they seem to have taken a more balanced view of things.

    Our view: Promising new DEP steps on pinelands use, protection

    Probably because I stood up and said that the DEP did a horrible job of everything when I spoke at the big stakeholders' meeting for the MAP

    Only the wealthy need apply

    The new Land Rover Defender starts at $51k. As beautiful as those old Broncos are, they're asking super car money for a 50 year old vehicle. They'll also sell you a restored IH Scout for $180k. Insane.

    Nash's Cabin 2022

    Oh, I didn't go over that way to check. I was on a mission to get there and it was getting pretty dark by the time I passed that way again.

    Nash's Cabin 2022

    Do you mean the little bridge across Buck Run? Because that's the only bridge I saw.

    Nash's Cabin 2022

    When I got into the woods I popped down to get a pic of the Harrisville canal with my phone. A green Subaru Outback drove by and I guess the guy saw me because he stopped, then went again, then stopped again, and finally took off when I got back out onto the road. So I guess he wasn't expecting...

    Oh, for sure. I'd probably have liked it better if I took a lighter camera setup.
