    Mike, Looks like you are still making fine use of your time. Your write up is nice and the pics are all good and a couple are just right to give you that eerie PineBarrens feel that keeps the outsiders away.Looking at the lake reminds me of my September paddle and as I sit in work right now...

    Pine Barrens Childrens Books

    Jerseyman, Pines fiction ( Of which I've read some, seems some writers just don't use the facts of the pines to set the stage proper in their books, thus making them fictional in all aspects ) as well as Pines fact of which the list is endless, still lacks for the most part I think what...

    I know the stone. Cool. There is one also that has an ominous but Jammin' Inscription. "Come young and old as you pass by. As you are now as once was I. As I am now so you shall be. Prepare for death and follow me."

    Pine Barrens Childrens Books

    This might be a small help Mike In the interest of your future students.... I don't know so much about kid oriented Pines books but when I was young...ger I had a subscription to New Jersey Outdoors. Aside from all of N.J. they usually had a nice piece or two in any given issue on South...

    The Summit

    Actually put this up in that "window" of lost posts. I drive by this every day and of late the land clearing after a long dormant period has begun again on the Summit. Hot & heavy.

    Interesting At Atsion

    All, Couple weeks back when I was off and tromping Goshen, I was on an errand earlier in the day with my Mother-inlaw along (Sweet woman). She always has her little cam along to grab a shot. I wanted to show her the Church at ATSION. She is not at all some Cemetary freak, I was just sure she...

    Eddie & Angie Coia were/are close friends of my Uncle that passed & Aunt. I had designs today on going to speak to them, with the picture (I don't even know if they knew my Uncle had it?) I just had too much going on to stop by. Still plan to. The Fools Labor Day parties... Been to a couple...

    Jeff.... The old Atco Speedway is absolutely not AMOTOL. Nowhere near. That track is easily seen on TOPO as well. Look to the State police Barracks out of Hammonton off RT. 30, cross over 561 and you've got it. Amotol and it's history are actually fascinating and somewhat Pine Barrens...

    Yes if you were down the Old Pike alot you would never know you've been by it. It looks nothing near it's entrance like it does in my Pic. I will try to think of something but the sections are carefully placed in a glass frame and it is old. Passed down from an Uncle who thought I might like...

    By the track in Atco I think you mean the Speedway off the Old White Horse Pike in Waterford/Atco. It is very visible on Google maps, satellite, Topo, Etc. You can still walk it out it is clear. I have a 3 sectional panoramic photo of the entrance in it's heyday. Very cool! very Fragile. I...

    1950's campground

    A great thread King. Brought on some nice side topics and seems to have reeled in two new friends. Welcome Bluetick1 and Pineman32 !! Enjoy ! It seems as the mystery is solved and your fellow recanted a tale that was true but his geography was a bit off, well, more than a bit. I am a little...

    The Hotel may or may not have something to do with the fact that there was a Chew Road stop for the JCR at one time.

    1950's campground

    Guy, Myers. Montalto is reference to something else. The Chew Cemetary I am in fact familiar with and of course it has been discussed here many times. One of the ways I originally lurked this site. I was there once some ten years ago looking for something else so this girl's name was not an...

    1950's campground

    Scott, I guess that goes in hand with what Bud said about her being "not right or depressed". My thoughts were on stopping in on George Rusnak but Bud said he like as not wouldn't recall any details regarding the possibilty of a campground anyway. Is it possible she could be interred in...
