    Recreation Area

    I looked at a couple of different maps and came to the same conclusion that Bob did. There's not much else in the area that qualifies as a lake. What about the gridwork of sand roads north and south of Sooy Place Rd? Was that supposed to be a development that fell through like Chatsworth Woods...

    Savoy and Route 72 development??

    Interesting that the numbered streets start at 24 and go up on that plot. Where were 1-23? The other side of the road?

    Medford deal gives 400 acres to township

    I can hardly stand to read about this. Is the Peacock cemetery going to be surrounded by townhouses? And they'll get rid of the 'gas station' around the corner on 70 - love those fuel prices, especially for the leaded. I'll bet that the Evergreen Dairy Bar isn't going to fit into that...

    I got cancer.....

    Oh, you had me scared for a minute. When my dad was older he started getting these (fair skin, decades in the sun, standard profile). They can scrape, burn or freeze them off. I was surprised to read about the ointment. They didn't have that years ago when he was being treated. Don't get too...

    Cranberry grower has been busy with new tradition

    I think I'm going to call and find out what's on the Ghost Towns of the Pines tour. The description said something about cellar holes and foundations. That's the scary one.

    Cranberry grower has been busy with new tradition

    You might clean up on a coffee, cider donut and blanket sale too. Maybe it should be cranberry muffins.

    Picnic

    I had a great time! It was really nice to finally meet some of the board members. Thanks, Bob, for all of the work that you put into planning and hosting the event. Interesting Pine Barrens related conversation flowed from afternoon into evening : fishing, why we explore, favorite and elusive...

    Carranza and Along the JCRR

    "...Now ... if we spell his name backwards we get "Yelserg Legin Tebreh"..." Thanks for clearing up the part about the engineer. That does definitely put a stop to my looking for a Duddington tree. The rest of it as you've said...is no help at all :-P There was an invitation to add a score...

    Carranza and Along the JCRR

    Tree? Now I'm confused. From what I could find the Driver of the train was Joseph Duddington and the Fireman Thomas Bray.

    Dairy Queen?

    Good thing the Evergreen Dairy Bar is still up the road, sliding windows and all. It's by the Purgatory Rd. intersection not far from the famous landmark The Hubcap (Place) I just went there the other week. The diner section had a breakfast special - 2 eggs, 2 strips bacon, 3 pancakes and...

    More woods being destroyed in Whiting

    Oh no. I cut across Skeet or Branin Rd. to get out to 70 and avoid traffic. Guess that's not going to work any more. Hey, maybe they'll put in a left turn arrow so that we can more easily make it into the Super Wawa!...and widen the road!

    Jersey Devil-real or unreal?

    Wow, sounds like your Dad had a pretty interesting notion about what a bedtime story should be!

    The low down on ticks?

    A woman from CT who had been letterboxing in the pines a few weeks ago returned home to find that she'd taken a tick with her. She went to the regional navel hospital and they determined that it was a Lone Star tick (!) and positive for Ehrlichiosis...

    Grants boost market plan for Pinelands

    If we're lucky, maybe they'll all eat dinner at Beau Rivage, visit Batsto and then continue to Atlantic city never to return. I finally discovered the balloon phenomenon. It took months. I kept wondering where all of the balloons that I'd heard and read about were hiding in the woods. After I...

    Alloway's Rock

    The first time that I read about the DeMarco Monument it was referred to as Alloway's Rock. It might have been the geocaching site. Hey Stu, have you been to Pomeroy Crossroads? Gillian
