    Odd impression

    No others around it, that's the only one?

    Finding an Old Book

    A second source recently ended up coming through for me on another copy of this book, which is in better condition, and which is signed by Dr. Bisbee. I could not pass it up. This is the one I'd like to keep in the collection. I certainly don't need to own two copies. If anyone happens to be...

    Official State Juice

    Probably would be too controversial as it's specific to our half of the state.

    Official State Juice

    I like cranberry juice a lot, but the usual stuff is way, way too sweet for me. They add so much sugar to it. If you can find it completely unsweetened it's really good with club soda.

    Fries Mill

    That would probably make much more sense, yes.

    Fries Mill

    Your photo, and the photo I posted above from the Maurice River Township society, are the only two photographs I've ever seen of the settlement. I'm sure that more exist, but I haven't seen any. I'm not sure if the mills in either of the two photos match up with the line drawings. Doesn't look...

    Fries Mill

    Keep me posted if a trip is in the works to Fries Mill. I do want to go back there. Ideally in the fall or winter again - exploring should be easier than in the summer. I think the sandy beach area in the photo is almost completely swallowed up by the woods now. If you look at it on aerial...

    Save the Pole Bridge Forest

    I don't think that you must live right on top of a piece of land in order to feel a sense of responsibility to it, or to be entitled to have a voice in what happens to it. I don't physically live in the Pine Plains, or at Friendship, or on the banks of the Wading, but I don't want to see any of...

    Flash Point

    It appears to be an "E-Z-Est Way" range. This was an early mail order brand of Sears, Roebuck & Co that existed from about 1915-1928. You can see a vintage ad for a similar one here.

    Atco Dragway to permanently close after 63 years in NJ, all remaining events for 2023 canceled

    Fazzio's mentioned in their listing that they didn't know who the "new owners" are and that they were working with the "previous owners" - that's the strongest indication I've seen that it's changed hands. But that could also be incorrect.

    Piney Tribe @ Burlington County Farm Fair

    Mm, yes, indeed. I actually asked the new owners of Buzby's back in January whether they still had any copies of this and some of her other non-cookbook works I'm after. They were nice enough to get back to me, but I don't think they have found any. She is a member of these forums as well but...

    https://pinebarrenstribune.com/south-jerseys-iconic-year-old-atco-dragway-is-suddenly-and-inexplicably-p5252-165.htm No new information here. I was hoping they would have the inside scoop on who it was sold to.

    Piney Tribe @ Burlington County Farm Fair

    I'm jealous of his signed copy of Marilyn Schmidt's Exploring the Pine Barrens. I've been looking for that one.

    Meet Wharton State Forest Superintendent Chris Ford (Video)

    Two older members of my family pronounce it "At-sahn," just to throw yet another variant into the mix. "Wanna go down the shore or just to atsahn?"

    Atco Dragway to permanently close after 63 years in NJ, all remaining events for 2023 canceled

    I hope someone buys it and reopens it. I have also come to enjoy the sounds of it in the distance. It feels like a natural part of the sound of summer.

    Meet Wharton State Forest Superintendent Chris Ford (Video)

    Is that the definitive correct pronunciation? I am never quite sure of myself when saying it out loud. I actually thought the way the reporter pronounced it might be more correct. The three syllable "At-see-on" seems like it might be closer to the origin of the name, which is "Atsayonck,"...
