On Sept 1 we paddled the Mullica from a beach below 206 to Locks Bridge ( Beaver Pond). We also paddled it 2 weeks earlier but the batteries in my camera were dead. NIMH batteries don't hold their charge for months, but that's another story. Upstream everything looked normal despite the burn on...

Sunday morning when we were returning from our daily hike down Carranza way we came across a strange group of hikers. Kids and adults wearing conical straw hats waving at us. Then we found signs every mile marking their progress. They stayed at Batona camp and that was mile 32, day 2. We also...

We went to see it at the Franklin Institute yesterday. It was impressive but I was disapointed that the full size funeral mask was not present. It's the mask you see in the advertisements. I stood in front of that mask when it was at the Smithsonian in the 70's. It made me feel like I was in the...

On Friday we took our third paddle on the Mullica this year from the canoe landing just above Batsto to Crawleys Landing. It's always a facinating trip, be it nature or observing what humans have done to their side of the river. We've never done this section at such low water, and provided an...
