I've made a conscious decision to not get old Bob. I want to live in a neighborhood where, if only by happenstance, I may catch a glimpse of a neighbor lady washing her car in a bikini as opposed to a frumpy old lady bent over in drooping Depends tending to her marigolds. :D

Beautiful. That actually is the middle of nowhere, I've checked the maps. Looks like beaver activity. Maybe we'll see the returns of some of the water bodies that existed prior to the blowouts of 2004.

What an awesome hike that was. I can't believe it was 5 years ago. So Bob, have you put a deposit down on a house in Seizuretown yet ?

I can't do anything small. Especially when it comes to alcoholic beverages. :) Honestly Ben, we enjoy sharing a lot with friends, hunting buddies and family throughout the late fall and winter. 42 or 48 gallons goes more quickly than one would think. It does, however, seem that most of those...

Well here I am again. It's on !

Capelli is the last holdout. The other rectangles are public. One is Mullica Township-owned. Jon, try NJ Tax List Search. http://njgin.state.nj.us/oit/gis/NJ_TaxListSearch/ Find your piece, click on it and voila !

As I said I have been going back there over 32 years and have never seen a posted sign or a person waiting to throw me out. Here's another anomaly in the middle of nowhere, without access and with a zip code in the negatives. $67.00 a year for taxes. It is just south of Wescoat Bogs which can...

I started duck hunting in that area around 1985 and most of the water control structures were intact back then. I too am fascinated by old bog systems and the field engineering and earthwork that went into constructing them. Wescoat Bogs was a large operation at one time and believe it or not...

Here's a few I took near sunset in October 2010, 6 years after all of the water control structures in the bog system blew out. In 2004 Medford lost 17 dams and the impact of those same storms was very evident at Wescoat. The amount of exposed, twisted cedar stumps and trees was fascinating.

Puerto Rico is going to get slammed. Worst in 100 years for them. I went there a few years ago and really enjoyed it. It was my compromise for my wife wanting to go on an "island" vacation. I refused to go to a place where machine gun wielding para-military walk the streets outside of your...

A little over a year since I started the thread and I am chigged again! First batch this year. I kept feeling a slight itch around both ankles before dinner. I waited until after dinner to investigate more closely and lo and behold, walking red pepper around both ankles. I saturated a paper...

The technique worked Joe. You didn't find the nest or the young ! I've seen killdeer do it many times. very dramatic.

Any nearby stream crossings ? Looks like a very sturdy ATV crossing or substantial footbridge, judging from the way the timbers are laid and the size of the timbers. Looks like overkill for a tent platform. It doesn't make sense though that you would build it and then have to carry it and drop...

The author of that letter is a member of my sportsmen's club too. He's a very good guy. The deer club he is referring to in his letter is Moore Deer Club in Tabernacle.

Interesting and frustrating. I wish the State would break their silence.

Outstanding Bob, thank you. I will have to get down to the Glades this fall. Looking at aerials, it seems like a lot of improvements at the end of Turkey Point Road have been made.

My Barkovision was telling me red oak Al when I first viewed the picture yesterday. The distinct knees also tell me it could be a swamp red oak, Quercus falcata, which does get this far north. I have seen red oaks with knees so really a leaf or acorn would probably confirm. If I was able to...

I crabbed way out there in Weir Creek and Johnson's Ditch in my own boat for many years starting in 1991. Before that, when we started dating in 1977, the bride and I rented the leaky wooden boats and crabbed Hollywood Beach and Beaver Dam. They were just up the road a piece from Dividing...

The Glades is an awesome piece of salty wilderness.

Looks like PA is the home base Bob. As the oldest and largest land conservation organization serving eastern Pennsylvania and southern New Jersey, Natural Lands has preserved more than 125,000 acres, including 44 nature preserves totaling more than 23,000 acres. Some 2.5 million people live...
