It's either climb the tower or...too old to do both!

A possible answer to the wasp swarms...note the high structures reference: https://www.ces.ncsu.edu/depts/ent/notes/Other/note144/note144.html

And don't forget the Tramps and Smokers! Of interest also, is the reference to Chestnut, that later was reported infected with blight in 1904.

I'd be glad to hear the answer. I've wondered for years.

46'er I agree, but it IS somewhat better than the past training that consisted of a sixpack of beer and a Capt's hat. There are a lot of bars and restaurants with tie up facilities that I see as a big problem. I still see a lot of inebriated folks on the water. The main operating problem is...

From what I'm reading. Turbo props use less fuel and are more efficient in short flights. They cost less to produce than jet engines. And the big advantage; smaller airstrips required for takeoff and landing.

I have twice also. First one, I had that uncomfortable I'm being watched feeling. Turned around and one large scraggly one was about 150 feet behind me. We had a look at each other and it just bolted and melted into the brush. That ended my day... Another near the Bartlett's Branch, simply sat...

I have the same company. Was forced to go to them after UHC stopped selling the plan I had for 6 years. My current plan is $300 more than yours,(just for me) deductibles are crazy, am very limited in network options.I'm just trying to hang in there until I'm 66..Another problem is the self...

There were roughed grouse here (Bass River) in the 70's..I can't remember the last time I saw or heard one. Lot's of theories as to why they disappeared: http://www.smithjam.com/where-have-south-jerseys-ruffed-grouse-gone/

Glad you both made it out safe.

I would too. I'd wager, that there is a connection to Jesse Evans, the Ironmaster at Martha. There is a remark in the Martha Journals about his being involved in road building.Mentioned here on page 9: http://www.bassriverhistory.org/uploads/6/8/7/1/6871754/martha_furnance_diary_intro.pdf...

The Old Evans Bridge? (Although the stream appears too narrow in the photo as opposed to my memory.)

The major constraints for a clam hatchery in NJ are seawater of the proper salinity, free from pollutants. This limits siting to bayfront locations. Then the issues of local zoning become problematic. Not much Agricultural or Marine Commercial zoning exists within those parameters. The cost of...

The Husky clam hatchery ceased operations around 2000. It was built on Hughes barges back in the late 70's. At that time the builder/ owner also attempted raising clams on leased bottom adjacent to the barge. He was an early experimenter/pioneer and had many different locations that he used...

This is the NOW view to the south dam /spillway:

I'm curious as to what is going to prevent erosion from heavy rains, now that it's all loose soil, being only packed down by vehicles. I wonder if the plans include rip rap? I know I'm not a big fan of change, but it is just plain ugly.

Does anyone know what's up with the tree removal and grading by both dams on the Rt 679 side of the lake? Hopefully not just additional parking...

They are currently planning a shutdown for repairs: http://www.burlingtoncountytimes.com/news/local/burlington-county-to-shut-down-bridge-in-bass-river/article_e1fee5be-34e4-11e7-a5d9-fb9c5eb5d4a7.html

I miss Iowa. I lived there also from 1980 'till 1983, when I returned to here. I lived outside of Davenport and really enjoyed pheasant hunting, fishing, and the friendliness of the people. In Decorah, the area of the bridge accident, is a heirloom seed repository and exchange, a non profit...

They look even worse as closeups. The detail is fascinating though.
