    Vandalized Trestle

    Take good photos, identify the person and the vehicle, document as much as you can... especially if you really feel this person set "traps" to harm people. That's a dealbreaker kids, far beyond messing with that bridge. Maybe even strike a dialogue that will go in that direction. All that done...

    Kayak recommendations?

    Hey! wait a minute. Bugger you old buddy. I may have had one or two... or six or eight, or 12 or more run screaming in the other direction, but I got a real winner fooled into sticking around. I always tell her, she knew what she was getting into. I am one of a kind. She is a kind one. Lucky...

    Sawmill Locations

    Guy, You may of course list this base. It is in Elm on the outskirts of Wharton just beyond Iron Mill but for now is on private property so coords I can give you but not post public. It's in pretty nice shape. Geographically it is not terribly far from RedNek's Albertson base and may be...

    Kayak recommendations?

    The famed Grumman "Tin Tanks" are in my mind still the best. They take a hell of a beating, Save your Ass quite oft, can be loaded beyond belief and still draft little water, take the streams nicely. When alone, I find my 15 footer a little trick at times but I manage and it has kept me out of...

    Canoeing with my oldest son

    Dang! Nice day. Good to know you spread your fatherly wealth amongst your chillun'. Some wonderful photos but tell me, did you take a pic of Wharton cocking his leg to pee? Poor guy can't get no privacy. I like for the low water scenes but with all three of you that canoe must have been...

    MIKE ROWE in the pines!

    There is that yes, kinda nasty. You could put put a spin on it that those prissy folk out there that don't belong in the big woods might see it and say "Ewwwwwwwwwww" and stay away. A deterrant of sorts, no? Might even beat "boring" I'm reaching here. g.

    Where Have All the Pine Barrens Gone? Long Time Passing!

    That is magnificent! I would have loved to have had that experience especially back then. I think I'd be on Cedar drunk overload with that rich smell all day. After the noise of the mill in action, the water at lunch must have been pretty peaceful. Heck you were there when a number of folks...

    A Bridge, A Trestle, Two Rails & Two Tales

    Interesting information, thanks much. To be fair those picks were taken by a friend with a passion for trains and train related stuff and a job that over the years let him take a lot of pics of a lot of train scenarios all over the state that most folks wouldn't normally get a shot at. I know...

    A Bridge, A Trestle, Two Rails & Two Tales

    Unfortunately the perpetual death wish we seem to have in our foolish youth did have me in it's grip for awhile there. I'm much better now. I think? g.

    Where Have All the Pine Barrens Gone? Long Time Passing!

    Here's a nice one for you to view. I have it's particulars on file and will provide to Guy in the hopes that it adds to the chain of information that will define these mill sites and their rich history. g.

    Dude!!! That blows big monkey scrote! Don't you get like a "hold" option? Gawd... back in my single days I woulda took the tags off any old thing in the yard, brought 'em down and drove the beeatch up! Played stupid when stopped by John Law. My how times have tamed us like sheep. You...

    A Bridge, A Trestle, Two Rails & Two Tales

    I am slightly confused by your references. If you speak of what we locals call "the old Pike Bridge" in Atco, it is mentioned in an old NJDOT report by which when a survey of possible routes was examined, it was more practical to tie that bridge in and eliminate bad curves at the entrances. To...

    Where Have All the Pine Barrens Gone? Long Time Passing!

    Not to hijack, and/or revive a thrilling thread but there are enough of those mill locations out there to be more than worthy of documenting and if memory serves, this is just the group capable of collectively doing it. I thought a couple years back where it would be a worthy venture and fun for...

    Thursday Along The Plains Branch

    Guy, Your trips oft yield great finds. In this one I especially like the look of the corduroy roads you came across. While plentiful in the region sometimes they are not as obvious or apparent as one might think. In one of your pics for instance the "road" could almost be a coincidental...

    The Fox

    Sorry man, I pretty much just gave up. I was gonna go down and check out the Patty's day gig (for what it would be) but I don't feel like heading down there alone. Another body to B.S. with would have been better. Here I sit. g.

    unnecessary pollution

    Don't bring that up. Bob's youth went out with the Nehru jacket. Unfortunately that crappy band he likes that also wore them stuck around awhile. Oh well, two down, two to go. g.
