Guy, That's Airport or New Columbia across from the Cranbury bog, (where the farmers used to put the Big pile of veggies to rot)

Not exactly beer... Ever hear of "Opie Deydocks"? It's an old Piney mixed drink named after : "A.- An old glass blower" or "B.- An old patent medicine" Whisky and Root Beer! Old heads used to drink it on occasion. From somewhere before 1920s. I always felt it was "B" as that was...

"Yes we all are a bunch of criminals. And proud of it " You see Matt, what the gentlemen are telling you is when Father Beck designated us "Pineys", it was an upgrade from "Swamp Angel', "Privateer", "Tory", or any of a dozen different names that had been loosed on us by jealous people on the...

Unless the areas inland have access to large waterways, I think the shell piles found more than a few miles from the bays are probably from early Iron furnaces. They used shells to make lime (in kilns) for "flux" that they added to the furnaces along with charcoal and ore. There is evidence of...

There are several shell Middens along in the Barnegat bay area (some near Tuckerton), but some others may have eroded or been removed for navigation or other reasons. Also some may have been damaged for "seeding clam or oyster beds". There has been at least one burial found in the Tuckerton...

Speak of the devil.... woke up with one on my back! Used every implement in the kitchen to reach and remove it.... Finally the wife came home and removed it with Extreme Prejudice! Even with the products I use they still get through the perimeter! Yeah, if you had something like this that...

Woodjin, If you get that evil lab up and running maybe you can direct them on Phragmites!:dance:

I had some ticks back in February and early March. Mosquito Biologist I know says ticks are amazing (minor chord music) as they basically wait in brush / weeds / high grass near active areas (road sides are a favorite haunt - drawn to heat and vibration). They go on "standby" until they detect...

And BTW, watch out for those three leafed demons of non-happiness! (Especially if "using the facilitys"):siren:

1 - Looks like Low bush blueberry (possibly near Hawkens Bridge) - good eats but hard on the back as the're only knee high! 2 - It's various shades of red including some fantastic florescent pinks! It depends on the season, weather, sunny versus cloudy and the individual tree! (And what type...

Every season is colorful on the Mullica! Some days it changes every minute with the sky and wind. Colorful reflections on the oily, black / gunmetal backdrop of the river can get my interest in a heartbeat. It can be surene one moment, and totally changed the next. It can reflect the moon and...

Real nice pic of a spring peeper! I had a hard time getting a couple of people to believe a small critter like that could make that much noise! Then, later, I showed them Cicadias!:)

Nice trip! Did you happen to see the name or number on the canoe? Looks like Belhaven is missing a boat! :rolleyes: Seriously, if you have the info, I'll pass it on to Dave. Water pressure is a cruel master!

I believe that it was "noted" in records and some informal "pending" stamp was placed in the papers (to refer to in case the perp didn't quite make it to the cleanup). I know the fellow doing the Lords work was a "Greenie" and passed away in the past year. In either case the person would be...

There was a fellow in Mullica Twsp. that used to run roads and look for debris piles. He'd swear out a warrant for any ID he'd find and when they showed up in court, he'd meet them and drop charges if they'd come out and clean up for a day or so. Might be a better way of getting it done and more...

I believe Burlington County DPW has certain areas that they limit or schedule mowing the ROW due to vegitation.

When I worked for Bell Haven Canoe, there was a couple of fellows took a couple of kayaks UP instead of down from Oswego. They went up til dark + then went inland a couple of clicks. Next morning one fellow makes it to a road and hitch hikes back to his car. Calls the wife on the cell or a road...

Thanks Whip. The house foundation in the Herman City Glasssworks Industrial complex (and piney emporium) was put in as I understand it, by a squatter when Wharton (hack, patooie :argh: robber baron that he was!) was owner of the property! There's a small spring maybe 100 foot upriver we used...

Kay was one of a kind, as were her brothers Sy and Farmer. They and the Ramble Inn are missed! Their interactions were legendary.

Hey Whip! Was photo 31 at Herman City?
