    Campers at Columbus?

    Lake water and small river/stream water (fresh water) blows away the ocean for cold temp potential. I've done a few swims in Marlton lakes for charity in March and used to take swims semi regular in Nescochague lake till mid October when I had regular access some years back. You guys are...

    Pictures from Quaker Bridge Rd & Batsto Village

    Just got a chance to view these. Very good angles. I particularly favor the surreal river reflections in your 3rd frame as well as the pic from inside the mansion's second floor. Keep Trekkin' and enjoy your newfound love O' the pines. G.

    Shameless self promotion

    Good deal Jeff !! Question, when you go on the site and to the programs you will notice the Host of the show DOWN JERSEY is Jim Albertson. Did you have to reach out to him or to the station in some way to get radio play? If you know him or have talked to him, he seems like a really cool...

    Hiking Question for the Atco Area.

    Regarding both your posts... You will hopefully enjoy Shannon's. They were good to me regarding my wedding. From Shannon's I would say your "hike" is best suited following Burnt Mill road in off the old pike bridge from route 30 East, you would not continue on the old pike however bear...

    Hiking Question for the Atco Area.

    ATCO, not so bad? Forgive me, it's a Waterford thing. But yes, there are a couple seedy motels along the pike. get something cheap enough, who cares right? I am guessing you are going to Shannon Caterers? The trail/road I speak of is 2 minutes from there if that is the case. Sorry I do...

    Hiking Question for the Atco Area.

    For the walk, from Atco you can get in some nice walking on/off or around Burnt Mill Road clear down towards Sandy Cause way and in to Parkdale if you're willing. For your cleaning, there are some fine "motel" establishments in classy Atco that would rent you a room by the hour. Hygenic...

    Kayakers missing and found along Mullica

    Reliable info Paddler. Yesterday at Sweetwater ran into a woman I've become friendly with that works for the state and was at Batsto Friday Morn' when I called her to get the skinny. It was early then but yesterday she told me some more. Without being inaccurate and gossipy it's safe to say...

    "Lines on the Pines" at the Sweetwater Casino: Book-signing, artists, dinner and more

    Sweetwater All, A very nice event and a fine day for it weatherwise. The artists and such were friendly. There seemed to be more of a presence there than last year. Jerseyman was a gracious guest host and fine speaker. There did not seem to be one possible book on the region not available if...

    Dave Amato: A Vanished Breed

    This one comes up nicely and reads fine, at least on my work Macheen. Good article. And they thought civilization was encroaching back then. Whoo boy.

    Oh Joy!

    I believe Hezekia Smith back in the day constructed a "Bicycle Train" from Mt. Holly to his Smithville facility for workers mostly. It was rather elaborate and functional but eventually went the wayside. the "CARS" were these funky pedal bike assemblies that followed the rail. Now if duplicated...

    Man finds ancient cannonball on shore of Toms River.

    There is no way that should be destroyed and you can be certain it will not. It shouldn't be that difficult to flush the product from the Ball. It should be in a Maritime Historical Museum the likes of L.B.I. museum or Tuckerton, but of course in it's own region. "Washed Up", Yes... that is an...

    Is your UNIT Still Working?

    Given the settings you both viewed it in, is it possible that a private company in a business related to such owns it and you did both see the same one? Or... how 'bout if there were more than one? Cool.

    Blueberry farm agrees to pay $45K for labor violations

    While it may seem like some big deal brought to light in print, this is no surprise. It's just the way it's been out there for countless years. While those folks are mentioned, they are far from the only violators. There is plenty of money in that town and don't think this is the only way it's...
