    something weird

    A fox can produce a squall that in the evening can be quite unnerving until you get used to it. For a number of reasons. Probably gave way to many of the rumored "night sounds" of the "J/D" over the years. Raccoons and even occasionally the lowly skunk can set up a fuss that sounds pretty...

    More work for GermanG!

    Do tell. I was on the park site today and saw that. What exactly are the types of positions you look for volunteers to fill? It uses your name as a contact by the way. G.

    Tuckerton Fish Factory

    Nice shots, be careful out there though, as German stated, John Law may take a dim view on your visit. It's been awhile since I've been up to it. Crabbing and fishing at the bridges is a fond Tuckerton memory of my youth. The Stinkhouse always being like a beacon in the distance, like an old...

    Cold Water

    Once again, it's that time. The Seaside Heights Plunge, formerly the Point Pleasant Plunge, the BIG one!! Saturday February 23, 2008 @ the Aztec in Seaside. I do not come to you to solicit $$, I think that would be a cheesy way to use Ben's site. Just a note to say... come on out, check it...

    Square concrete boxes

    I continue to be amazed at that. Like I said Sunday... must be you. Just kiddin'. The ticks on you did have me checking Sam over and my wife had him in the shower promptly as well. I just shed my clothes outside, gave 'em a shake looked me over & changed. They seem to have decided winter is not...

    Camp Haluwasa Founder Dead

    My understanding from a fellow I spoke to yesterday was that he did a great deal of the fabricating work on the train as well. Seems he was a very "hands on" type. Inventive would indeed be appropriate. g.

    Square concrete boxes

    I actually had the chance to show these to my father recently. He confirmed what I thought. Back in the Sawmill thread there was some dialogue on other types of things found. I had posted about a 2 hole outhouse still on the Fleming Pike property my family purchased in 1949. He confirmed these...

    Yes, The guys I knew that worked there Slanged the slogan up a little but the end result is the same. I was poking around on their website last night about the train and history and I noticed that. g.

    Beware of Beaver

    You're right, Took me a minute and realized your whole nocturnal thing fit the "Bill" so to speak. Guess I was off a bit on the "posts occasionally" thing but It's been awhile & I didn't connect. That was a great story though. The escapade with the Beaver and the darkening trip back sounded...

    Beware of Beaver

    I have had a few rabid animals to contend with over the years. Some of the signs are very obvious but in some cases, you might not realize right off. Best to be careful and careful for your pet. In two cases, animal control had us go through a strange disposal process I would have thought would...

    Cloverdale Bogs

    A great Trip !! Foremost, a huge thanks to German!! for the tour. By far the best ever of any County or State Tour ever. Perhaps the personal touch of our group. For the record, Sam told me over lunch that while most museum and tour guys are kinda boring, German was not boring at all. From a...

    Camp Haluwasa Founder Dead

    Sad the passing of someone like that but left behind is a good thing born of his endevours. I have been back there a handful of times for one reason or another. The lakes are nice, they have a little train that tours the grounds and decent buildings. It is modest, I assume to fit the background...

    barren nights

    You are a very strange man. However you take insane pictures that are like no other. What else was in the PB&J sammich? Some how I think it's B/S that you'll not go out at night again. Keep the pics coming. g.

    Pine Barren Glory Days

    Very nice, good luck with it, nice & low. My style. Love 'em just never felt like buying one. Probably will regret it. As you know, you have wonderful open roads out here and clear down to the shore in any direction. It's obvious how you'll be spending your Spring, till the boat comes out...

    Pine Barren Glory Days

    Scott, Gosh it's been at least 14 years but You, Tommy & I went out on respective bikes, myself the 250X I still ride and swear by, for an afternoon. I remember thinking "what an insane bike, almost a 500cc 2 wheeler and hellish". While you were accustomed to the bike, you may recall...

    Hand-made vacuum tubes

    Like watching a lost art. The dexterity is amazing and man he's got to have patience. Fine machining of any sort is fascinating but right down to working the glass and the small components...wow! Thanks for the video. g.

    Burlington County bogs produce a bountiful crop

    A magnificent piece. Look forward to seeing you. I get nuts reading on all this stuff because my love of the shore pines exceeds all. I could have lived that life and never wanted for anything else. These folks and baymen alike were incredible. Aside from where I am now, I've always felt my...
