    Fix Our Parks

    That goes along with my idea for a special task force like they did in Manchester. Big, beefy state trooper types, about 20 of them, swooping in to to lay the law down. Guys who are schooled on what can be ridden and what cannot. That's important, because I see a lot of confusion about that even...

    Meteors! (was: René-Levasseur Island)

    That is so mind-blowing. From the Chesapeake article: "Tropical rain forests covered the slopes of the Appalachians." Not many people know that (I read this, but I'm 'pretty' sure its correct) the slope of the Appalachian chain slides beneath New Jersey, even in South Jersey. Drill down beneath...

    Buzby's to Re-Open?

    I have no idea what they did in there, but I would have taken the downstairs diner back to the 1950's.

    Meteors! (was: René-Levasseur Island)

    I love info like this. I have National Geo's from the 20's, 30's 40,s and so on up this centery. Not all, but several hundred. There is (If my memory serves me) another one further north that I read about....in Natl Geo some scientists visited it. Here's a video I think about the one you posted.

    Guy, I assume they gave her tetanus shot?

    ATVs continue wild illegal joyrides through the NJ Pine Barrens

    They don't have to be state owned. When Ocean County bought the Forked River mountains, I suggested at a meeting that they designate this pit area off Lacey Road as an ORV park....300 acres of severely disturbed upland. Guess who from NJCF at the meeting shouted NO the loudest.

    1876 Woodland Map

    I must have been mistaken Boyd. I thought it was this one closer to the railroad. Gone now.

    1876 Woodland Map

    Owens Hill. I'll bet that's swallowed by the sand plant.

    Coyles

    I recall it being cleared, but I wonder why they couldn't do it on their side. I suppose they got a permit for it. I'm wondering though, maybe they are expanding training to others.

    Across from the airstrip. Anybody know what this is about?

    Plants, And A Surprise Find

    Ben, I do have a book related to your Pine Barren folklore, but it covers the entire state. I really enjoyed it, and it's available to anyone on the site to borrow from me. Rutgers Univ. Press. 1983

    Fix Our Parks

    I will address the substance of what you are saying. I have never seen the DEP close a road in any state forest or WMA over concern for the demise of an animal crossing a road or lying in the road. In fact, I'm more likely to see a citizen proudly showing the public how they helped an animal get...

    Read between the lines folks. Somebody is grooming us to accept road closures due to wildlife issues without explanation.

    Well done.

    That's an unfair twist on Ben's point (carried into his follow-on paragraph); that even though they are outlaws, they are not necessarily tearing up the environment by driving recklessly through the woods and breaking their own trail.

    Okay, having a picnic is cool and all....but in the middle of a pine trail?! LOL!

    I"m going with Dodge for the seat. Around 1973 or so, maybe a Monaco or Polara...maybe even one of the muscle cars, though that's a stretch.
