Hey all: I'm looking for a few folks who wouldn't mind being interviewed via email in the next few weeks. I want to write an article about exploring the Pines through the ages, and comparing how the Pines have changed through the years. That said, I'd like to find people who have explored the...

To all of the inner circle here. :)

Hey everyone - So lately when people have been getting email reminders about threads they've been watching (the subject of the email will have "New Reply To Watched Thread" in it) folks have been replying to the emails rather than posting their replies to the site. Just a heads up, those email...

All: So, if you haven't read Jerseyman's post on Mary Ann Forge yet, you should read it before you continue on with this post. Done? Great. Let's go. I decided to take a trip there today. The area around the dam doesn't make a whole lot of sense - so I wanted to try (again) to make heads or...

All: I was at a members house today and they showed me that they get a 500 server error when they click on the "Get-Togethers" forum. Anybody else have this problem?

Hey all - My family does all of our Christmas gift giving and eating on Christmas eve which leaves me with Christmas Day to myself every year. It's a great exploring day since almost nobody is out and it's just great to have some space to yourself. I've been thinking about exploring the Old...

I sold my old Garmin GPSMap 76CS and want to find a replacement. I figure that I carry my iPhone 4 around with me everywhere so rather than spend $200+ on a dedicated GPS I'd probably be better off just getting a GPS app for the phone. I'm basically only looking to be able to create waypoints...

I just finished reading Walden. Even though it's over one hundred and fifty years old and the prose is a bit difficult to follow at times, it was a great read. Thoreau was pretty progressive - very interested in Eastern philosophy at a time when it was still largely unknown to folks in America...

Does anybody think the font size for the articles on the front page is too small?

Those of you curious to see the storm in Princeton are in luck. I put a webcam on my fire escape. http://cam.njpinebarrens.com

In case people are curious I've been kicking around an idea and doing research for a new article. Tonight I started writing it. It's slow going, but I just wanted to let folks know that there should be something really good to look forward to sometime in the not-too-distant future.

Yesterday I went out to visit Centralia, PA - crossing one thing off my bucket list of things to do in the process. For those who don't know, Centralia is the site of a underground coal fire that has been burning since the 1960s. Most of the residents have left (some willingly, some forced out)...

Yesterday I went to the Thomas Clark house and Princeton Battlefield to try out some HDR photography. HDR is short for high dynamic range - basically you take three (or more) images of the same scene, one underexposed, one overexposed, and one just right and use some special software to merge...

All: I've just updated NJPB Live Maps to use the MyTopo layers as opposed to the Topo layers offered by Terraserver. Topos should be a little faster and better quality now. This will be the last update I do to NJPB Live Maps. There's a new Google Maps version out (version 3) that is a lot...

In my quest to be less of a lard-ass I want to get a bike. Anybody have an old mountain/hybrid bike for sale?
