Took the survey. Can't hurt, right?

No problem Ben. I realize June is usually pretty packed for folks, but happy to put it on the radar is case anyone is free.

Thanks! Yours is fun too, lots of places I haven't been in a long time, brings back memories! You shouldn't have to carry half your weight in gear to do the Batona (depending on what time of year you are planning to go), just pack smart and do without some stuff. The last time I did it, I got...

Buttonwood has no water either. You can supposedly get it by walking across the street to Crowley's Landing (or if you're early enough by filling up at Batsto in the sinks), but I've always just packed in an extra water bottle in my pack. Buttonwood is nice because there are only five sites...

ANYTHING other than snow is nice. I am soaking up the 50 degree heat, I love it!

Alright, got all the paperwork for this that I need to fill out. Have a group of about 15 so far (mixed group of family, friends, exploring buddies, and some Boy Scouts), very happy to have more along. Tour starts at 9:30 AM on June 14. Latest I can turn it in is June 3, but I'll probably do...

One of the best bands of the last 15 years. Belated for St. Patty's Day - Dropkick Murphys singing a classic Irish song with Spider Stacy (of the Pogues) and the one and only Ronnie Drew (of the Dubliners)

I'm surprised it's that high. I wonder what percentage of that is preserved already.

Nice little write up. The guys in the Merchantville Stamp Club are really, really nice guys. They come give a presentation to my students every year, and they started a free stamp club for the town's kids (free stamps every time you show up). I should have wandered over to the post office...

Well, his real name is Abraham Lincoln (not kidding). My wife and I may have some issues. :D

Got a chromecast last month. Netflix and youtube work perfectly from my smartphone. I had hoped to stream the Olympics onto the tv, but apparently how well something streams depends alot on the business putting it up, and NBC wasn't much interested in making the Olympics steam chromecast...

Was a super nice day, so the family and I headed out to walk the Blue Batsto Lake Trail just off the parking lot at Batsto. I was expecting pretty similar to the red trail, which is stroller and ADA friendly. I expected wrong. The Batona overlap isn't particularly exciting (although I was...

Drove by today. It's definitely still there, but it's in rough shape. Guy's pictures don't seem as bad as the real thing.

I went to Hopewell Furnace at the end of January, checked out the town area and the furnace. The furnace is really impressive. Of the iron furnaces in the pines, I know only Allaire has any significant part left of the old pinelands furances, and that is slightly less impressive for having to...

Nice memorial, but why on the wall?

Some great ones! I love #7. Going to try the starburst thing next weekend when I head out to Allaire.

My buddy is working the burns this year. I can't smell the smoke, but I can see the fire pictures he's putting up each day.

I can't same I blame the guy for bringing the case to court. I like trails too, but I wouldn't want folks traipsing through my yard uninvited.

Glad I didn't go now :confused: Which edition is the picture in? I only have my first edition anymore (my books got out of control for a while and had to be cut down), and I didn't see in in there, although they did have a picture of the Tuckerton Road.

I used to live three houses down from this church. Beautiful little church, I always liked it when they would have services Sunday night while I was coming home from somewhere. The doors would be open and the light would spill out onto the road. Can't believe I lived in that house for four...
