And I will give you that's a pretty good point guy. Wish I had some input from my childhood on that but while I do actually remember the stones around the bridge, I wasn't exactly pondering why the stones were there back then. As a kid you're thinking about trolls under bridges hiding behind...

Crap... You are absolutely right Boyd and I forgot. Good catch. Guess it shows I've been away more than a minute. I believe I successfully deleted them. Check me though. g

:bang: Me being dumb.

If it is any help at all that particular trestle over the Albertson is jest a touch east of the Mill. The Mill was pert much at the bridge give or take. I have that bit of info in a book Jerseyman gifted to me. That also makes a loose reference to the Mill that may have worked off the stone base...

So Guy, you crafty bugger, got me pining (No pun intended) for the Fleming Pike, the old homestead, and the bridge. I found with some caution, the Fleming Pike of my youth is still pretty traversable. The Bridge, looking from The North and South... Somehow I double clicked those attachments...

Went out there about 20 minutes ago. Nahhh, The one I am thinking of is still there. Big White Oak, if I are calling her correctly.

Heeeaaayyy,... Gabe, and Oji, and Old Jersey Girl. Figured I'd pop in. Missed yall. Since I remain an old salty softy below are scenes from Last Saturday at sunset. High tide just a bit before 8 so the timing of a slack tide and water that just simply became glass made for a chance for good...

Yall may remember back in the day me writing about this and the Alberston creek, the Trestle, and the Mill itself. I am originally from the Fleming pike right down the street where in fact I spent younger years playing all sorts of make believe adventures of the grade school fashion on one of...

Thank you Ben, with continued gratitude for maintaining the Gold Standard of sites for the complete Pine Barrens Experience.

My most humble thanks sir.

Hope so. Moon was killer the other night. I will be up on the Island watching the fireworks on 68th Street at Ocean Beach. So the moon should be starting it's thing while I am there and doing it's thing as I ride home through the Pine Barrens. I will be passing through New Gretna and on up past...

Because I am weird, I took a stroll in my upper field last night around 3:00 a.m. it's very open and literally no light pollution. The moon was low and brilliant deep orange/red. Hope someone else saw. It was amazing.

Ocean Seawater provides another great value. Not just salt water at home. Get down and dirty in the surf or on the water and make short work of the woes of poison ivy and chigger bites. There's always some poison out here waiting to cling to you and the Pestletown Pet, the lovely chigger will...

Never hurt anyone to bid farewell to a day from the water, just a little closer to God

Figured I'd visit old friends. I pop in oft to look at maps without ever signing on which is selfish. My life has taken so many new directions many of wonder, freedom, and happiness. Some of loss, turmoil, and sadness. With great difficulty I had to separate myself in a sense and start anew...

Already Chigged a number of times when I'm pretty careful. What the heck.? Seems a week ago I'm throwing another log on the fire to knock the chill off and overnight I'm getting violated by one of Jersey's voted "Most reliable to come out in force evil critters." But...! Yay...Salt water...

Hey all. Nice to catch up reading. Doing other things. Still love the history. Still back up right to the pines. Just got disheartened and things of the nature of this thread are why. Sad. I take walks out my way but that's about all. I do love seeing the many familiar names and faces and thank...

Hi ! Been so long I don't even bump into you anymore! Hey I'm looking to get both the boys their safety certs for watercraft. There are so many out there that claim meet NJ standards . The one you had at Batsto was actually given... by the State Police. The real deal. Was free too, but not the...

Those were fine days. Quite a lively crew we made. I hope you enjoyed. I dealt with storm blow down and breakage all day yesterday. Wasn't going anywhere.

Greetings All, I imagine I'll just tag this here. I guess with no valid excuse I've become rather selfish in cleaning up the last couple years and kept it to the never ending task of picking up Pestletown Road. Now I'm gonna avoid the politics cause it just makes it worse. The situation in...
