    Widlife Management Area Milestone

    Can't remember ever running into these people myself, except in a park I think. Guess they are spread thin. But then after reading that article this state seems so much bigger. Probably jus' me.

    Sawmills

    'nother Question Looking at the geography of some I these I am probably off base but did anyone find any so close to a moving body of water that a raceway could have been dug for a sluice in close proximity to the block?? I found of all things a drawing of a portable and smallish waterwheel...

    Sawmills

    Any of you fella's down this way a member of the Medford Historical Society ? They are refurbishing an old Grist Mill on Church road of which a small section will be a working saw operation. ( as this was the case in some water driven mills ) It is educational, not productionally functional like...

    Another theory of Mary Ann Forge

    Coming in a little late on this but I must agree. Fun map to read. My whole area seems a little compressed while others are stretched out. Neat how these maps can be inconsistant yet each has it's own special little bits of info.

    Saturday Snow Storm

    Well, after waiting for something interesting to happen last night, I got bored and sometime between 1:30 & 2:00 just went to bed. (still went for a whiskey though ) Fiqured I'd just wait to see what morning had to offer. It certainly satisfied. Plenty of snow. Got my old Jacobsen cranked up and...

    Tuckerton Road

    Whether with a kaiser jeep I had in high school, a number of trucks, cars, and a dunebuggy, I always bring a come-a-long, hunk o' chain for around a tree and a bit of good rope. Tipped my jeep on it's side once and got it up, out and running on my way with one. I've used the same old come-a-long...

    Good Post Piney Boy I liked your words indeed, well spoken. Thats what I meant and thats just one ranger fellow. wouldn't it be great to have more ! I know the monetary compensations are probably slight so it rings true that you care. ( But hey, you still have time to be a heart surgeon ) G.

    Not that my say matters but I would welcome & consider ranger's of the pines and anywhere else for that matter's opinions. I really do think and hope in at least one aspect or another we work towards the same goal. I may see thru rose colored glasses but I don't think a heart surgeon picks...

    The Pump Branch

    Thanks guys, Makes a lot more sense now. While searching sites about waterways I've stumbled onto lists of these before. Never knew there were so many ! I remember the posts you guys had a bit back about them. I just never had cause to get up close to one. Cool the way the collected...

    The Pump Branch

    Having a dear little bit of "me time" again today I stayed close to home and walked off a section of the pump branch. Don't much care about the super bowl.I needed to get out. The gun club across from me is like a war zone of drunken pre game idiots on their range so I know where all the...

    No more fun in the Pines

    They really can't be all that bad.... Some years back, I had a gruesome homemade dunebuggy 350 chevy powered. Once I got it horribly wrecked on the way to the Batso cemetary bridge ( or lack therof ). I slept on the trail that night in the sand by my broken steed till morning when I would...

    Sawmills

    Take my hand, this one's gonna be awhile. Feel free to criticize or correct, I'm not prideful enough for it to matter and some of this is surmise from collective readings and research.These mills do seem to date sporatically although the technology expressed of the stones does limit them to a...

    Atsion Mansion may get new life

    Your sales could be enhanced if you could "find" and were to have on display an "authentic" piece of a bigfoot, say a hand for instance. ( Like the "Yeti hand" that the tibetan monks have ) G.
