Here's the latest airship photo added to the collection. The Hindenburg docked at Hangar 1 is always a spectacular image but what I find interesting in this photo is the hood ornament/radiator cap on the car in the foreground. It looks more elaborate than one you'd find on any run of the mill...

This house, which is down the street from mine, was destroyed this weekend by pressure drilling to install the 30" pipeline. the location is in southwest Monmouth County, across the street from Burlington County about 1/2 mile away from Ocean County. The poor homeowner, a 77 year old widow...

I'd like to know also what your photo setup is. By your description it sounds like a spotting scope with a cell phone adapter. Is that right?

Sorry for being vague. Yes, the missile site off Rt. 539. I find it fascinating that two accidents that changed history, occurred, as the crow flies, about 2 miles from each other. The Hindenburg crash put the final nail in the coffin for practical travel by airships. The BOMARC (Boing and...

Here is the latest addition to my collection. There are several variations of this photo and it is one of my favorites. The airship Los Angeles tethered outside of Hangar 1. If anybody has any info about the rigid airship history at Lakehurst and/or the BOMARC program, I would like to hear from...

Reading this article, it now makes sense to me why they are laying the pipe in what seemed to be a very random sequence. They lay a section then cover it over then start a different section a distance away. I've seen them do this at least a half dozen times with none of the sections connected to...

I was recently given this book. Has anyone ever heard of it or seen it before. It seems to be a tremendous reference. No matter what I tried, The 2 photos defaulted lying on their sides.

Excellent video. Now I cant wait to go through my inventory to identify all of the "unmarked" ones.

That is the caveat I forgot to include. He told me the lens has to be masked real good because the fluid would remove paint.

There is a commercial product to do the same thing with very little elbow grease. I was told that it is nothing more than brake fluid but I don't know for sure as I've never tried it.

The serpent like Southern Reliability Link is slithering its way through the Pine Barrens. The 30 inch pipeline, when completed, will transport natural gas at a pressure of 3000 psi. This is a view of the project on Rt. 539 between Rts. 537 & 528 in Plumsted Twp. Ocean County.

Great sign. I could have used it in my yard in Cream Ridge when one passed through about 2 weeks ago. BEEP-BEEP!

Here's the most recent photo I purchased that I enjoy sharing. The Graf Zeppelin approaches Lakehurst on August 4, 1929 after a flight from Friederichshafen.

The pile of rocks looks to be a Cairn which by definition is a pile of rocks (I couldn't resist). In the Scottish highlands, people cleared (and still do) their land of rocks and placed them in neat piles which can then be used as corner markers, direction markers or any number of utilitarian...

No, I've never been inside the building but know some people who are doing work at the site. The photo of the mural was taken yesterday, 1-23-2018. I too hope it is preserved.

Attached is a full wall painted mural in the front office/meeting room of the now defunct Ocean Spray Cranberry processing plant on Park Avenue in Bordentown.

Please, please post more. I can read your writings all day.

My guess is the prop is for preliminary tests to be retrofitted with a jet engine if their prototype is given a green light to go to the next level of development.

I think the A-10 is the coolest warplane in our arsenal. My 97 year old mother lives in apartment A-10 at her retirement community. Most of the residents have some sort of identification on their electric scooters. Perhaps a small stuffed animal, a vanity license saying granny or something like...
