    Manchester re-zones for development

    Very true Al. I think they need to change up the way we learn and revamp the whole process. Speaking from my exp. I learned a whole bunch of crap in high school and college that I will never need and it was a complete waste. For colleges I would require internships from sophmore year on...

    Made in America

    I'm on the same page with you Boyd, but Scott your going into my list of role models your a good dude and I like the way you think, your kids should be glad they got a dad like you that instills old school principals like those. I would buy American all day if it was in fact made here by...

    Manchester re-zones for development

    No Boyd it's not my idea of rural either. I agree with you it is a big mess and the most frustrating part is we have learned nothing from our mistakes. We are making the same decisions that we made 10 years ago. Lot's of people are going through FHA right now borrowing waaay too much money...

    Manchester re-zones for development

    Just what NJ needs more homes priced at levels that nobody from those areas can afford, not in proximity to jobs that can support the homes/taxes or the desires and wants of the residents. Its getting frustrating and tiring watching developers and politicians allowing continued building in...

    Pets in the Pines

    Please don't let you cats outside, they take a heavy toll on wild critters. I had cats as a kid and they always stayed inside. My dad use to put anti freeze outside for the feral cats, he just got sick and tired of them killing chipmunks, using his antique convertibles as scratching posts and...

    Sasquatch in the Pines

    Hah, didn't think of that Al. If it were true it would be Teegate versus the Stone Stealing Squatch.

    Sasquatch in the Pines

    In regards to the reports on BFRO its been awhile since I viewed the NJ reports. I do remember that the ones I read seemed far fetched with very little supporting evidence. I believe one I read had the animal throwing rocks at people, there are no rocks in the barrens. I've watched just about...

    1960's NY Times travel article on the NJ Pine Barrens

    It can be fun, but it is tough work. Trying to cross through the pygmy plains with a big antenna, with a long wire attached to your waist can get frustrating. Also those units only get a beep from about .25 miles at best, these species can move at one mile clips, so you gotta be out there...

    Sasquatch in the Pines

    I think with Bigfoot in the pines you have to look into whether or not a species like that could survive in the pines, let's think realistically. In reality, it would have to be more than one and more like a population, potentially connected to other populations, so let's say 20-30 bigfoots...

    1960's NY Times travel article on the NJ Pine Barrens

    Gibby, I think your seeing two separate studies. The guys your seeing in the Bombing Range are the Drexel crew (all good folks). I do drive a blue cherokee and tracked on the outskirts of the range, but often had my car parked around that area with a big antenna in my car or on me. That would...

    Sasquatch in the Pines

    My issue with the video has always been the animals behavior. Certain animal behavior is consistent among all species and they just don't look back like that. They stop and stare, then bolt, or bolt, or stare and charge. An animal may behave like that if it is familiar with being around...

    A Question for the Duck Hunters

    On my drive up to work I cross over the crosswicks creek and some other streams/rivers I'm seeing about 90% less waterfowl versus most falls and winters. I would suspect its the temps.

    Harrisville Lake

    Pine barrens is an amazing place when poor health news is received. I've been there a couple times (receiving end of bad doctors visits) and the pine barrens has always cleared my mind. Hope all is well.

    Hunters in Michael Huber Prairie Warbler Preserve?

    Believe hunting is allowed by permission.

    Plan to keep NJ state parks open announced.

    God I really hate the sound of this. I love the pine barrens, especially Wharton because of the solitude. The last thing we need is for the area to be marketed as an attraction.....awful.

    A Botany Trip to Atsion, 1885 (a nineteenth century version of the PBX crew?)

    Thought the same thing Guy, king of depressing. Some of these areas had farms up until fairly recently though 60's, 70's.

    Davenport Road

    Opening up is a good thing. As I mentioned in the pine beetle thread the pines are too dense in spots. I like when they uproot stumps and leave the dying trees or cut trees there. These things provide a ton of value to the rare pinelands species.

    Davenport Road

    Did they leave the trees that were cut on the ground of remove them? Does this look something like Haines and Haines cuttings down on stevenson or old tuckerton? I'm all for selective cutting but I think its best if they cut trees or some are left on the ground to provide hiding areas.
