I know if I sent our two dogs out with orders to "Go find the cat !" it wouldn't end very well for the cat. If I want to distract Murphy and make him go crazy I say "Where's that bad, bad kitty cat ?" He'll go running for our shed, beneath which we once had a feral cat living. He'll never...

Volunteer Pet Detective ? Does that come with a badge and Decoder Ring ? I think a few coyotes got fat on a cat and that is that. :)

I made my first tomato gravy of the season from fresh San Marzanos tonight. Sautéed a little onion, garlic, a cubanelle, fresh basil and a half a long hot and slow-cooked it all down for an hour. The sweetness of the San Marzanos is amazing !

Scary. Luckily it didn't take any other trailers with it. I have several friends in there.

Greetings from the ER at Virtua ! They have Wifi ! Just kidding. My plan is to freeze it since "they" say it freezes well and try it next week. We have a busy weekend planned and I don't want to be dead or have uncontrollable diarrhea. :D

This article advise that with all mushrooms, the best thing to do is eat a little bit and wait a day or so for a reaction. Wow. http://www.startribune.com/how-to-find-and-eat-hen-of-the-woods-mushrooms/218885321/

I loved the song Sixer ! My wife is still laughing ! She says I am an idiot for tasting it. I have it in a Tupperware bowl in the fridge and am weighing my options. It looks exactly like chicken flesh when pulled apart and I am tempted to sauté a little and try another very small taste. The...

Three years in a row I have had a massive fungus sprout near the base of a healthy white oak in my yard. Last year I had to use a shovel to dig it up and it was every bit of 15 lbs. Tonight I decided to kick another one out of the ground and I am half-assed convinced it is Hen of the Woods. I...

Geez, I hope they never ban beer in the State Forests. :)

Got my book last night and read the Nash's Cabin article right away. Well done and interesting. I will have to get there this fall. Great job Oriental !

Ordered the book this morning. Thanks for the tip Guy.

I did a night kayaking outing in Fajardo, Puerto Rico a few years ago into a lagoon that was densely populated with bio-luminescent algae. As you paddled through the lagoon, you would leave a trail of sparkles through the water. You could grab the water and pour it through your hands and it...

The lump is a hump of sand Bob. Any anomaly in the bottom draws fish. This particular lump is about 3/4 of a mile long and varies in width. When I troll it the baitfish and sand eels are all over my sounder. The water was clear everywhere it was just that you could easily see bottom over the...

Two years ago at one of my favorite fishing lumps about 14 miles off Cape May we had the same conditions. the lump rises to within 26'-30' from the surface and is surrounded by water in the 70' depth range. The water over the lump was so clear it was like looking through glass at the bottom.

Looks like a very good year so far. My San Marzanos that I was concerned with at the start of the season straightened right out and took off nicely. All the other tomato varieties are kicking too. We are eating zucchini, (blecch) my wife's favorite, and cucumbers. The cubanelles are getting...

Eeee gads ! What was she thinking ? Not a drinkable beer in the bunch, in my not so humble opinion. I can't stand wheat beers or beers made with Belgian yeasts and you got a few there.. Maybe she should have tried local craft beers, like Long Trail. The have some good brews...

I have the ACR PLB. Very nice units and made in US of A. They are having a sale right now. https://www.acrartex.com/info/2016-usa-promotions/ I have gone through one re-cell on the battery at the required interval. I think next time I will just by a new unit. Re-cell is a little expensive...

If you haven't already, read this entire thread. It has a lot of information about Miller's and Jerseyman's map that he posted is very interesting.

A very interesting woman has passed. Rosemary Mauriello was a granddaughter of two of the Millers who gave Miller's Bogs here in Pestletown its namesake. In the photo link above her grandmother and grandfather are Mary and John Miller. (Silhouettes 10 and 11 in the photo key) She actually lived...

It is so riveting just waiting for you to pull the trigger on your very first slag heaper ! :)
