    New Car or Nearly New Car

    I'm about a month into doing my research. I know what I want, but the dealer inventory is very scant. I've read all the tricks dealers play to extract all the freaking money they can from you. But I figured I'd ask you all if you have any recent experience in doing this; what worked for you and...

    Manchester WMA Fire

    I poked my head into the Manchester WMA fire area to see if it's worth botanizing after the fire with my friend Mark. This was a hot fire (see cedars below). I think the answer is only a maybe. There are very few roads in here, and getting into the stream area requires a committment of time and...

    A photo to mull over

    Lot of old homestead signs in Cape May County. This one surprised me with the unusual conch-like or whelk-like shells. I see clam shells dumped all the time, but never saw this. This was likely pre-1950. Do you think it was more common to eat them at that time? Maybe a restaurant dump?

    Worst dumping I've ever seen

    I'm doing plant surveys in Middle Township, Cape May County. I drove a dirt road leading from Pennsylvania Avenue and was suprised to see over 30 piles of trash dumped on the side of the road. This is all within 1/2 mile of a paved road. I've been helping the Forked River Mountain Coalition...

    Odd impression

    In the soft mud bank along Ivanhope Creek in Monmouth County. I can't imagine what made it. In a remote area with no paths etc.

    Working with Waypoints and Maps

    Boyd, I'm reading your help section and trying to understand the workings of waypoints. A couple of things I want to bring up. Don't think of them as critiques, it's just maybe I'm not seeing or understanding something. I'm trying to use your site more since it's so useful to what I do. 1) You...

    Plumsted Township

    Filling out a survey report, and I always report the township. I had no idea that Plumsted Township actually extends down into a portion of Whites Bog.

    Poking Around

    Found this little shell only 2.5" long today. Not sure of the species. Anybody know? If you tell me it's a certain species that I think it might be, I have a theory.
