    I want a gun...

    The one on Piney Hollow Road in Winslow is probably the closest for me, outside of just joining the masses of people shooting right on the streets of Philly and Camden... What's the difference between centerfire and rimfire?

    Corduroy road found, maybe.

    What would the purpose of a corduroy road be around here? I know in the Pacific Northwest they use them for tree harvesting, were the ones in the Great Swamp used to get the cut ceder trees out?

    Atsion schoolhouse and some cats!

    That house is down, at least as of last June when I took this picture: http://www.drivethrupharmacy.com/images/baileyhousedown.jpg Still an interesting story. I have a good picture of the "Bailey" sign somewhere...

    I want a gun...

    Thank you everyone for the help. I just sold some of my drums, so the next day that I'm not substitute teaching, I'll head to the police station and get the paperwork rolling while I have some spare money. A .22 is what I have experience with, although it's been waaaaay too long (I also...

    Young folks interested in hiking/camping/canoeing/etc?

    I can promise that it's not a bunch of party heads, as I'm not a drinker myself. Besides, drinking and many outdoor activities (especially canoing) are a terrible combination. The club was started by myself and few friends for young folks to go do some fun outdoors activities. Quite a few of...

    school project

    Thanks :) Rowan University - Two degrees, a BA in Elementary Education and a BA in History with a concentration in International Studies. Only took me 7 1/2 years (5 years of community college) :bang: If you need to know about Stalinist Russia, Latin American politics, or the Colonial era...

    Young folks interested in hiking/camping/canoeing/etc?

    Let me begin by saying that far more than half of what I know about camping, the Pines, nature, history, and related areas came from older folks who'd been around to see it, mostly through Scouts, but also through here and Barry's list, so all you people who are older than me, you are great...

    school project

    Sounds like a fun class. Have you come up with your argument/thesis yet? I just graduated in December as a history major, so I'm still in "paper writing" mode :words:

    school project

    How long is the paper and which class are you writing it for? Batsto, Port Republic, the Battle of Chestnut Neck, Pinelands Commission... that's a ton of ground to cover... If you are focusing on the future of the pine barrens with development, the classic on that subject is The Pine Barrens...

    Young folks interested in hiking/camping/canoeing/etc?

    I'm not worried about babies, I'm worried about following trail markers ;) Besides, none of you want to be babysitting some of the people I know. I took some of the folks in the club canoing last August, I couldn't believe the obvious things that some of them didn't know (like, put cell...

    I want a gun...

    ... aka, the "Making RednekF350 feel wanted" thread... :) What steps do I need to take to own a firearm in New Jersey before I actually go out and buy a gun? My ulterior motive is not the Flyers recent nosedive, but to ultimately be able to take my my Boy Scouts to a firing range and have...

    Young folks interested in hiking/camping/canoeing/etc?

    I was looking for a club to join, but couldn't find one to meet my needs. Therefore, at the suggestion of someone on here and others, I started my own. The club, temporarily called the Outdoors Club because we haven't thought up a creative name, will be centered around hiking, camping...

    Marlton Circle

    Guh, I second that the Berlin Circle solution is a bit of a mess, but at least it's a consistent mess now that the construction ended. The school I work at had a janitor named Mr. Bill, who recently passed away. He'd grown up right along 73 for nearly his whole life (his house is just past...

    Ghost Hunters In Burlco

    I actually saw ghosts there. And zombies. And some guy with a chainsaw. They put on one of the better haunted houses (err... prisons) I've ever been in. :dance:

    Snow storms are mythical things...

    Yay! Snow! PS: Completely off topic, but my roommates mom cut me out an article about you Stu from South Jersey Magazine. I read it and went, "Hey, wait a sec...". So congrats!

    canoe trip

    Wow, you were an original then (or pretty close, only a year or two off). 48 has been around over forty years now and still going strong. We have about 30 active boys at the moment, down from a high of well over a hundred late in my Scouting career (1997 or 98 - we were one of the biggest...
