Billy! I'm ashamed of you. Just because Alfreda seems to have lost her sense of discretion is no reason for you to behave in such an ungentlemanly manner. WHAT did you DO to her photo? No I'm not laughing. That was a cough. Ms G

Thanks. These historical notes are fascinating. Reading your posts and those of Jerseyman and a few others, I feel like a kid at the circus: Look at that. And that. And that. Wow. I have most of the usual South Jersey reference books (and I love Boyd's Odyssey) but there's nothing like an...

An interesting range of photos and plenty of them, so we could enjoy the trip too! One of our first dates was canoeing on Lake Lenape. :) Glo

Did you see this link posted by Bob on the Oswego PBX thread? Using a car to run their sawmill???? How often did this happen or do you think it was just an anomaly? Glo

Thank you, HawkinNative -- and turtle, for your post too. The taxa are always helpful. Do you know whether there's fishing anywhere along the Skit? Pickerel? Glo

Great question. I can only guess. Tree experts, we're waiting. :) [teacher's voice] : Alfreda, honey, I'm so glad you want to contribute. But let's allow the others to have a turn, okay? . . . Yes, of course you count! Here's a tissue. Glo

Very cool clip. Especially the sound of his wings. --G

Makes me wonder at such ingenuity, using the family sedan to power their sawmill. Note how they reversed the belt to make the blade turn the correct direction. Credit my husband with noticing that! Re: the photos, I can't decide which I like better--the ones of the cedar maze or the...

Yes, an interesting history and a sad future. Sometimes I think it's a good thing we can't see the future. The family that built that home . . . I sense a funeral dirge coming on. Enough. Let's go back to corduroy roads and their remarkable sustainabilty. :) Glo

Now I'm a bit confused. I thought it was Alfreda. This could get complicated, Whip . . . Whip? Whip? Beware the super-duper varve buster. Both of 'em might have one. --G

Okay, I'll bite. How did you do it? --G

Thanks, Guy. It's always an education to read one of your journeys. The corduroy roads are fascinating, and so is your ability to spot meaningful stones. I agree--the maps are helpful. On the first map link, what is the airport/airstrip WNW of your starting point? ~Glo

Amazing thing, evolution. :rofl: Thanks for the interesting details, Al. ~Glo

What a trek. An infinite variety of shots. Incredible trees. Somehow, Whip still has a lost look about him. Good thing you were there, Alfie. Thanks to you both. ~Glo

Better revise my order too, please. I'd like one large TAN plus one medium GRAY. Are you sure ex-patriates are permitted to wear the hallowed . . . um . . . threads? --G

Say it ain't so! Do something! Can't you pin that GPS to his jacket (use a big diaper pin like we do for the kids' mittens). OR: modify your brand new super duster varve buster to recalibrate his memory banks? Ignore his objections--this is important. We're depending on you, Alfie. ~Glo

A writer crafts words to take us on a journey, to express what the rest of us are feeling. Good, strong words here. Great journey. You're a writer, whether you realize it or not . . . I thank you. ~Glo

What a story! Well-written, great photos. Might you consider printing out those photos and part of the text (the boy's viewpoint) as a picture book for your children? . . . a marvelous keepsake. ~Glo

Thanks, Guy. An attractive theory, at least for those approved inhabitants. There's so much I don't know about bog-culture. :science: ~Glo

Billy and Alfie: This has got to be the funniest thing I've seen in a long time. And my poor husband's sitting here beside me watching the show too, trying not to laugh b/c of his stitches (no, literally, he just had surgery). Love that dawn photo, fifth one down. Wish I could copy it onto my...
