Nice outing Guy and Jess. I just walked past the one on the Albertson off 206 yesterday afternoon and I thought of you two. That is the one where my son and I ran into you a few years ago while hunting. That area is now almost completely swept clean of deer, unfortunately.

You are a regular Tom Bodett! That was a neat run Ben. I always thought about doing something similar along the Black Horse Pike as it passes through the pines. Beginning in Cecil and headed east, there area lot of unusual motels, buildings and businesses, some abandoned, some not, and then...

That is the second one I have found in that area. The other was about two years ago and I posted pics of that one too. That one was fresh. The one I found yesterady was as clean as a whistle and it really looked out of place in the middle of that road.

Yesterday I set out to check out a few dikes that I haven't seen in awhile. They werent home though, so I went out in the woods instead. :) I was actually looking for critter tracks and some future snare locastions and came across some unusual finds. I am always looking at the ground for...

I got up early yesterday to take advantage of our brief deep freeze hoping to get some good ice photos along the Albertson Branch near my house. I had my woods puppy, Hunter, with me who is a 5 month old Springer. It was a balmy 7 degrees when we left the house. Surprisingly, the open bogs...

I was struck with some strong emotion for some odd reason when I wrote that at lunch today. I think about how short of a time we have to do things more and more as time goes by. I buried two good friends in 2007 and 2008 that were my age and it sticks with me. I work with people that are...

4.) (For those of us over 50) We are still in strong physical condition, enough so as to be able to pick a little travelled and lesser known waterway or bog system off of a map and exlore it to its very source with no roads or trails. We do so without a whimper and feel a satisfaction deep in...

At least out that way dental benefits are not much of a concern for a new hire. :) My apologies in advance.

Here is an interesting article from the Pennsyvania Game Commission on a recently snared coyote and where he came from. http://www.pgc.state.pa.us/pgc/cwp/view.asp?Q=175661&A=11 Some of the distances for coyote and bear are pretty amazing. I suppose some of thoses critters were driven to...

I went the Chew Road site two days after the discovery and my dog sniffed out a big blood stain and I found the instruction tag to the body bag. I kept the tag for a souvenier but my wife through it away. She thinks I am whacky.

We got a mailing from Ancora two weeks ago asking if we would like to be on a call list for future escapes. I asked my wife to send it in with a yes. Fortunately for us, most escapees seem to be a little woods shy and they usually head to more civilized areas.

Come on Sue, don't you know that the coyote's presence in NJ was a covert operation orchestrated by Fish and Wildlife with the financial backing of the auto insurance companies so as to reduce deer/auto collision claims? :)

I got the email announcement two weeks ago. She indicated that it would be the only notification. It is the text that Jerseyman had posted. I have not signed up yet. I assume that signing up will be through the restaurant because the announcemnet did not indicate otherwise.

My lovely wife and I are in. I hope to be seated with the Niners again. Last year they gave us a dignitary to sit at our table. He was a world traveler and interseting as hell. This year, they will probably give us a blow-up doll. Scott

It's pretty unpopular, but I don't support the trout stocking program in NJ for the same reasons. Hatchery raised trout, which as a species need cool, well oxygenated water, are dumped by the thousands into shallow lakes and ponds throughout South Jersey that can't support a breeding...

Small game is in until February 16 Jim. I am not a big fan of put and take wildlife management, which is what the NJ pheasant and quail program is. It is also what the trout stocking program amounts to in Southern Jersey. The State loads the WMA's with 55,000 pen raised pheasant and 11,000...

Nice report Jim. Next time, try to cover some more ground would you ? There are some really nice WMA's in Cumberland and Salem counties. Most of them are ghost towns after December. I like the Dix tract for late season bunny hunts.

If found near my house, they would be "dead" spiders. :)

As always, a great day to be suckin' air deep in the pines. The hike was planned very well with the purpose being to hike the Skit from a point near its confluence with the Batsto to its very origins to the north and east. The beginning of the hike held perfect conditions and the Skit was...

Very nice pictures. I am glad to see it re-lit. Maybe a few GPS dependent weekend warrior mariners can take a big step backwards and learn a little about dead reckoning and positioning from those mysterious objects shown on a real paper NOAA chart.
