Ben, Captain Norm passed away last week, I am sad to say. He will be missed around these parts. He had his share of stories to tell and always made for entertainign company. God rest his soul.

Yeah, Moose has been known to swim multiple miles against the current. He doesn't do much swimming in the cold weather, though. He and I are roaming the Pines by foot until Spring.

Nice pictures, Guy. I've yet to prod around that stream. You know how it is with these streams. Dozens of spelling variations. I'd be willing to bet that the "L" crept in there at some point by way of a misreading. In any case, it is interesting that doubling a word is common in the...

Thanks Guy. I wonder what went wrong...

Ed, that is awesome. Doing stuff like that is a dream of mine. How long ago did you do the Zebra dive? There is a wreck on Bass River (at least I think it is on that river) known as the "bead wreck". Do you know the story behind all these beads?

On Sunday, I ventured out with my friend Yvonne (infinite sameness) to Hermann City. Moose, the beast of the Batsto, walking in one of the draft tunnels from the old glass factory: One of several structural remains along the landing area: More remains: And some more...

Ben, The name of the stream is Atquatqua. I don't know where the idea of clear waters comes from. I was under the impression that atqua was the Lenape word for deer.

"Magical" sums it up well. Skipping out on class was the wise thing to do, Yvonne. No regrets on my part. :mrgreen: Aaron, we hiked portions of the Atsion-Batsto trail.

No1one, That is actually Amatol.

:confused: Crowleytown schoolhouse?

Aunt Jemima Mount. I like it! Chris, Forked River Mountains.

:)Me a runner? Hell no. Moose and I are fit for the slow pace.

That Buddy is a smart one! I no longer have to lead my golden retriever through the woods half the time. Dogs rule.

:)You're right, Bob. Scott did that vermin a favor! :) Herpers, I only kid ya.

No prob, Jim. Glad you find it interesting.

A great outing with a great group of souls. Bob sure knows how to plan a good trip and Scott certainly knows how to cap off a long hike with a good party. From a geologic perspective, this trip was fascinating. The below aerial photo depicts the area we hiked - an area laced with...

I second that.

sue, $49 per six pack?? You must be factoring the equipment he bought, right? In any case, it is a good investment, don't you worry bout that! :)

I'm going to the brew pub at Rehoboth Beach. Yeah, I'm a fan of those hop things as well. Get your hands on some Kill Ugly Radio (in honor of Zappa) by Lagunitas if you ever see it. You'll be glad you did. :guinness:
