Going down the Beverly Rancocus Rd at the intersection of Bridge St, I noticed old brick houses to the right. I asked my husband what was down the road. He said, "an old historic town". With interest peaked, I asked him to drive me through. To my surprise, it is called Rancocus Village, nothing...

Thanks so much 46er for posting that great photo collection link! I truely miss places like the Pennsalken Mart. They tried to replace it with an indoor modern mart on Rt130 in Willingboro. Believe me, this new place isn't worth the visit. A true disapointment.

Well, if it ever gets published, it is only about 50 or so pages. It consist of nine short chapters dedicated to the people who lived there. My memories of my parents, and 2 uncles, and three other notible characters. I have drawings of these people representing each chapter. (my own drawings) I...

I wonder what happened to the indian statue that stood outside the Inn.

I have three options here. One is Batsto Press and Marlyn at Buzbys. The third is the self publishing. I wonder though how time consuming it is. Time is the issue here. I will look into the self publishing links you guys provided. Thanks you all so much for your support. I will keep you all...

I heard from Plexus today regarding my book on Friendship. They said due to the economy they have to decline my book. Personally, I feel they didn't even look at it. It has sat at their company since September. I had to email them several times just to get a response. They suggested self...

What really sucks is the fact the gas prices are down, but no one has any extra money to vacation or travel.

Really! I will have to take a trip to the Woodshed and check it out. Thanks for posting this.

Whatever happened to global warming?

Here are two books that are as close to the piney lifestyle as you are going to get. Author is Carolyn Chute, "Letourneau's Used Auto Parts" and "The Beans of Egypt, Maine". This is exactly the types of scenes I grew up in and know as piney life. No way this author made this up, therefore...

I too was there and the high light for me was buying the "Piney Princess" book. The author is a great person to meet, very friendly. I was astonished at the similarities between her book and mine. (if plexus accepts it) The style,drawings and emotion is incredible! I can't wait to finish it.

Wow! I am so excited about this book, I can't wait to get it. It will be quite interesting what it holds. I so like to compare. This is a true tribute without even reading it first.

Today I went to the indian festival in Westampton, it was the first time I have been there in about 15 years. Needless to say, it has changed significantly. Alot of the merchants little buildings were empty. Most everything looked cheap compared to what I remember. Most jewery was imported and...

Now as for the job thing...I am a LPN nurse which scope of practice is limited. Even though nurses are in demand, places are not hiring like they previously did. They too are trying to skim by on the staff they have. I recently read in my nurses magazine, that alot of nurses who weren't working...

Look, I don't mean to put down anyone, but if you can afford $10,000 a year for taxes and complain...you need to downsize. I can only imagine what kind of house calls for 10 grand a yr in taxes. And what single income supports that? Doctor, lawyer? It can be done. When I lived in Nesco, I had...

LOL, it would make more sense if that was what he meant. But no, he really thinks pineys are a very unhappy clan. Amazing!

You bet they were happy. Ignorance is bliss and welcomed in the pines. Knowledge would make one realize just how unfortunate they were compared to societies standards. So they took on life simply. When they choose isolation it was security from the outside world and all the influences. I...

I have often wondered about this myself, and have to laugh. I guess I am an exception to the rule. There are of course other exceptions to the rule where categorizing is concerned. All I can do is offer what I have seen and lived. Of course some pineys did not live in the junky surroundings...

Of course Bob wasn't knocking the pines, who loves pineys more then Bob? LOL Most pineys lived a certain way that is mostly extinct today. When I explain things some people get offended. They have their own beliefs on certain things and refuse to listen to someone who actually lived that life. I...
