Thanks for confirming our impressions, Al. I'll be interested in anything you find out.

That was a another thought... but surely that is too many? I used to think it was remarkable to see two or three of those in a day out.

Won't this just move the activity to another area? If there aren't going to be enough rangers for active enforcement, then the off-road guys will just go elsewhere. This is actually really bad news, imo, because it is an acknowledgement that the rules can't be actively enforced, and ultimately...

We were thinking the same, but were surprised by the number. I hadn't heard of the digger bee before.

I had a Mio 520t GPS in my truck that really served well for pines exploring, because it had every old road, railroad right of way, and actual or purported body of water. Unfortunately the internal battery crapped out, there were no map updates for five years, etc. So last Christmas my wife got...

Up in the woods off Glossy Spung yesterday, and later at Friendship, we saw a great number of burrow openings in the sand. We surmise they are created by a large burrowing insect, but we're not sure which one. I've been out in the woods at springtime many times over the last ten years, but I...

Interesting. Hope it's temporary and not a harbinger of things to come. We were up in that area yesterday, but went north up Glossy Spung and then around on Caranza and back down to High Crossing. Haven't been down in the 1/4 Mile area since last spring. We can get usually get through it, but...

From today's news... http://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local-beat/Silver-Streaks-in-the-Sky-Likely--a-Meteor-116199184.html

Not far away. You go south a bit and make a right, if I recall.

Cake's Spring would have been my guess as well. With all the little farms and the sawmill that used to line the banks, that area would probably be a fruitful one for some exploring.

We're right on the ice line, and I sure hope it doesn't move north any. If the ice totals work out the way the NWS is predicting tree limbs and power lines will be falling like the leaves in October. The last time we had a bad ice storm it was 36 hours w/o power. I went out today and bought two...

I know I'd eat it if I were hungry enough. But I'm not hungry enough yet :).

Close to a foot here so far, but it's slowing. Fortunately the wind is very moderate. Unfortunately it's going to be 35F tomorrow... so I need to get clear before this crap turns to concrete.

Snowing like mad up here right now. Wind, zero-visibility, easily the most intense storm so far this year. A good 5-6" from it so far.

Bah! They must have just solidified that track, because up to about lunch time they weren't calling for much. Looks like it is going to be sleet first then snow... double-bah! I tell you, my kids have been home way too much since Christmas. If this storm keeps the little bastards in the house...

Yeah Port Murray is right around the corner more or less. We do get some cold snaps, but like everyone else we've had a run of warmish winters, so this one comes as a bit of a shock.

Hah, I don't mean bad as in cold, by any means. I was born in Michigan, grew up in upstate NY, lived in New Hampshire, and worked and skied regularly in Vermont. I know what it feels like to have your sinuses freeze solid in the morning :). No, what I hate about most jersey winters is being...

Haha. Damn smart dog. -3 when I awoke this morning. Damn man, that is coldness. Going to be 32 and messy tomorrow, though. New Jersey winters are the suck.

Sweet!

I smoked cigarettes for 20 years, and quit them 15 years ago... but then I got hooked on cigars about 2000. Started smoking these little Fuentes and inhaling them. The nicotine intake made unfiltered Camels seem like soda straws. Was up to five a day or so and decided enough was enough. Tomorrow...
