    A lil' Music Thread

    Since 90's music came up in another thread, it got me thinking again. I had the intention of making a thread like this for a while, because some of this music still seems as good now as when I first heard it. I'll share more later when I have time:

    Fall Photography Hike

    Thanks Boyd. We were ready to throw Turkey Swamp into the hat and pick it as a winner. I'll have to run Belleplain by my wife again. Mostly white oak/pine forest there, right?

    Fall Photography Hike

    Hi Folks, We're breaking out the camera this weekend and going on a short fall photography hike. I knew that the folks on here would be able to answer this one-we're looking for oak dominated photos for lots of contrast against the pitch pine, or gum/maple dominated swamps. We were looking at...

    It's interesting beacause years ago I did some training with martial arts groups that worked with weapons. A summary of some of the lessons that I learned from the training was that the failure of weapon use in self-defense often arises from deficiency in the following areas: 1) kinesthetic...

    ( Runs limps out of thread crying ) ;) If my wife got me an adult stroller I'd probably end up putting an engine on it and crashing it into something.

    Franklin Parker Preserve

    I hope that I didn't come off as hypervigilant, I'm definitely not. I have never had bad experiences with people in the pines either, but I've crossed paths with some people who I am pretty sure were up to no good. I did, recently, have a black bear suddenly appear about 8 feet from me in the...

    Piney Water

    Hi Don, I would assume that it would be difficult to modify abiotic factors in a lake that much. The lake is being constantly fed acidic water by the cedar swamp. I would think that a better choice would be to find fish species whose range of tolerance for pH fits the pH of the lake. Sunfish...

    Keep the pepper spray on your person and easily accessible, not in your pack, and practice drawing and simulated firing so you know where to carry it for fastest use. Same with anything else that you carry for self-defense. It takes 2 to 3 seconds to react to an unexpected stimulus. Even if a...

    Piney Water

    Reduction in dissolved oxygen is responsible for most fish kills. O2 concentration is typically a function of one of three things: temperature, biological oxygen demand (BOD) or chemical oxygen demand (COD). The higher the temperature of the water, the less dissolved O2, so summer fish kills...
