The tower graveyard was in Forgotten Towns of Central Jersey and was the first item I searched for. It is located on Windsor- Perinneville Rd. off Rt. 539 about half way between Allentown and Heightstown. My boys were little then and we had a blast searching and finding the places and things...

Wow, where to start? I'm glad to see you back, there, Jim. Nice trip report. I, too was going to go there Sunday, but instead went to a train station in Newfoundland, NJ. Jim, I hope you went to the "tower graveyard" described by Father Beck. It's not far. Gas prices! Has anyone noticed the...

I have been by this place many times, and just last week went past for the first time in abour 5 years. I saw this article and I'll be going there soon. The hill there is formidable, you can see it for miles. Mr Beck wrote of this area referring to a tower in a graveyard which I found in the...

Bob, I can't help with the detector, but I could go out there this afternoon if you need me. Tom

Jay, Last year I travelled to that area for a motorcycle ride on the Blue Ridge Highway. Our host was from Waynesboro, VA. and had lived in that area all his life. I remember him telling us about a time in history when Virginia was the largest state and supposedly extended all the way to the...

Jeff, That's a staging area for the contractor doing the night construction on 72. Tom

bit my box and my wrist, I thought you were talking about your package?

Jeff, Sorry I never replied to this, why don't we arrange a trip out here to compare notes? It's pretty close to me and it's been a while since I was back there. Tom

Bob, You have to see this program. He took photos that were made into sterographical images and they are nothing short of amazing. I think he made his own cameras and lenses and on top of all that he explored what was then unknown wilderness carefully documenting everything with journals and...

Wow, His gallery is exceptional. I think some people just have a gift. I recently watched a show on PBS about Seneca Ray Stoddard. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seneca_Ray_Stoddard What an amazing explorer and his primative photography makes my high tech digital stuff look like absolute crap...

Infinite, There is a beautiful old house for rent on River Rd. in Green Bank. It's a bit pricy, but in excellent shape. And it overlooks the Mullice River. I've been meaning to look it up in Heart of the Pinesbut haven't yet. I'm sure it's got a name. If you're interested, let me know. Tom

Paul, Excellent report and excellent photos. Thanks Tom Oh, yeah GO FLYERS!

KCB, Allaire Village is close to you, and one excellent town with many structures still standing is Whitesbog. Link: http://www.whitesbog.org/what.html Tom

I don't think anybody will be suing Brick Wall Corp. successfully. You cannot accidently stumble upon their property, its gated and all access points are piled about 10 feet high. Kids still get out there because there great places to ride, big sand piles to jump, etc. The Lacey police patrol...

Ben, It wasn't at the curve. It was at the gentle curve between Menzer's treefarm and the terra cotta factory. I would guess a deer ran out and the poor kid reacted by swerving. It's terrible Tom

Bill, I sure am interested, thanks. Tom

Shuresue, You have got to write your book. Even just write the rough draft, I'm sure I'm not alone feeling that we could help you polish it as a final product. Your memories are going to be all that is left after time takes its toll on Friendship. Tom

Stu, I found those ruins back in 1977. They are on private property but they're not posted. Someone used to live just off the main trail a little south of there. There were some foundations, one quite large, and back in the seventies a few concrete slabs, a large rubbish pile and alot of clam...
