Jeff, is Mutha the official name? Ed

Because of the work it took for all of us to "find" it, I felt the thrill of discovery, instead of just being taken to it. Great day Jeff, I rank it a 95. Don't worry, my face will heal. Jeff with his prize: http://forums.njpinebarrens.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=370&pos=4...

The state and the current owners have reached a deal to preserve the property. It's on the front page of our local paper "The Central Record". Unfortunately I can't find a link to post. Ed

I hiked that last winter in the snow. I was attracted to it because I saw footprints of large group that had done it, probably the OCSJ. They left quite a trail of litter, droping gloves, lipstick, mints, hats, ect. It's dry all the way to Carranza Road. There's a nice footpath that...

I bought my land on Tuckerton Rd between 206 and Carranza in 1974. It was a one lane dirt road, really beautiful uplands. It didn't get paved untill the late 70's. Our parents thought we were nuts moving out with the indians and bears. They followed us a few years later. Ed

A friend of mine shot a bear in NY state 2 years ago and gave me a steak. I ate it that way, not wishing to disguise the taste. I'm not sure I even swallowed the first bite, pretty gross. It was VEREY greasy, even before I cooked it I noticed the red meat glistened. The meat had no pieces of fat...

Anyone tried it? Vonage has a 500 minute/month plan for 14.99 that would work for me. If so, how did you hook in all of your phones? Is it reliable? I'm with Comcast, but their phone service is $40, and my average Verision bill is $32. Ed

Just in case any of you are out this way on Sunday mornings, the Pic A Lilli Inn has a really good breakfast on Sundays from 8:00 untill 12:00 noon, $7.95. This was only the second Sunday they had it and the place was packed. Our waitress said they were running out of food at 10:30. I mentioned...

at Wading Pines Camping Resort! Those little, kinda pink cabins on the river just down stream of Godfrey Bridge. They're all broken up with just one wall remaining. I always enjoyed looking at them as I paddeled by, wondering what they were like inside, what stories they could tell, and what...

Get one with a built in digital camera. Mead is one manufacturer. Ed

I think it's the right spot. It's really overgrown now and I didn't feel like getting ticks. Ed

I finally got there today, Oct 30. I drove up from Harrisville Lake, passing through Martha. It was an easy drive, no water. I decided to walk in the last .27 miles as the road looked tight. It was a very pretty hike over what is a large hill for that area. The cabin foundation and the lake...

I found this little guy hiding under a pot I was bringing in for the winter. At first he was so sluggish I could pose him as if he was made of plastic, but he soon warmed up. We always have plenty of these hanging around our pool in Tabernacle, under the cover or in the ivy. It's always wet...

I've tried to walk around those bogs on that side of the road. Old Topozone photos sho a trail around them, but it's much too overgrown now. That's also a party spot. I paddle all through the winter so don't give up yet. Ed

Which bog were you on? I think I've been on all of them in that area, but maybe not. Two years ago I paddled the Tulpehocking from one of the Friendship bogs to Hawking bridge. It was clear enough that I didn't have to get out once. There are many duck blinds back there. I'd like to do it...

Not this week but maybe next. Give the water time to get into the rivers. I'm available weekdays. Ed

On our walk this morning on the sand road behind Carranza Memorial that parallels th RR tracks, Williy and I triped over this small Eastern Hognose snake. http://forums.njpinebarrens.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=340&pos=0 Thats an old tire tread that spans the middle of it's body...

On Saturday Sept 25 we took a paddle on the Wading River. There's not many places to go with the water so low, but it did make for some interesting exploring. We did some walking untill we got past the Hawkin Bridge camp ground, the rest was OK. It was interesting to see how little soil overlays...

I picked up a really nice book on tracking called Tracking And The Art Of Seeing by Paul Rezendes Great pictures and to the point Chech it out, Ed
