Glad to hear the fairgrounds will be located there as opposed to McMansion City.....or God forbid, another shopping...

    odds and ends reply to Math T. If one were traveling east on Revere Rd ......at the end of Revere where it meets Cropwell, make a left. On your left on a slight rise was the Haines house (big tree from out front was there last time I drove past) and across Cropwell at that point near a...

    progress in the pines....? :argh: DeepX....bite your tongue! I hope I'm not here to ever bear witness to that atrocity. I didn't know there was any room left on Route 70 for widening. Do they have to move the water tower this time......she asks sarcastically. Why the 1844 house...

    Mr. Livingroom.... I think that was an Acme prior to the furniture store.....yeah, I remember it burning. I also remember every old house in the area either burning or falling down.......and until they did we played in them. That was cool because it isn't that way anymore. I loved the...

    Judy Hall was my age....another kind person from our neck of the woods! My friend Laurie boarded her horse (Sam) at the Hall's.....so did Gene Hart (Phila. Flyers announcer). I rode a few times with Laurie from there to our house in Woodstream. Horses love apples. The rides were fun and...

    Marlton Circle.... Anyone remember Skipper's? Guy, do you recall a Shell or BP station being across 73 from the Sunoco...? Last I read, Olga's is closed. I used to go from Maple Ave. through the apple orchards to Woodstream by horse....right across 73. In first grade the nuns took us on...

    Tick today

    Had Lymes in the early 90s with classic case symptoms....had vaccines....now I hear nothing about the "vaccines". No talk about ill effects, latent afflictions because of it....I'm kind of with Mac on this. My doctor at the time suggested the vaccines after my diagnosis. So I guess I am...

    Guy, I too used to ice skate at the Marl Hole.....cool. Anyhow, I had a friend who came across old info from the Colestown Cemetery and folks interred there. I believe I copied the info for my own files and will look it up for you this evening and let you know. I was in Marlton while the...

    "Rooping Worms"

    Never heard of "rooping worms"! Much like Beck's observations of "fyking snapper" (hope I spelled that correctly) on the Mullica in the 30s and 40s. Folks like these seem to have their finger on the pulse of the local environs...make ingenius use of it and respect it all in the same manner. I...

    Kayak recommendations?

    But ahhhh.....I too have an Ocean Kayak and have trained the 4-legger to sit on the front. She likes to watch for ducks. It was a challenge to keep her seated for extended times, until she realized that she wasn't invited otherwise. I have a Hobie, very much like the Dagger as well...
