    Old wading river/maxwell rd public?

    I drove it last year.It is not blocked or at least wasn't then.Problem is about 200 yards east of the field there is a humongous hole.I turned around,it looked wicked.The road is public.I asked a ranger once.he said they like to try and scare folks off and will occasionally block the road.He...

    they dump large stuff like mattresses,recliners and tv's right on battle Lane and route 555 both county roads and right on the shoulder.They dump in the same spots all the time and no one ever gets busted. We only get one day a month down here to dump big stuff and it's on a saturday.I guess not...

    Local Civil War Fighters

    Local Civil War Fighters

    They probably both were,I know everyone in my family from KY were rebs. They were in two predominantly Union counties (Lawrence and Carter) but Johnson county right next door was a reb stronghold.They mostly seem to have joined their respective sides as a legalized way of reeking vengeance on...

    Garmin introduces the GPSMap 64 series

    we need to have Magellan GPS's with Garmin support. I bought a three year guarantee with this one. If you have no guarantee magellan will not repair it not even for a price.I still have the 1500 but it's bricked and I have no idea what to do with it.Maybe I"ll keep it and i guess I can trade it...

    The painting of the Wading River

    I really think some of the folks Mick's drops off on the Wading must think their in deepest darkest Congo.From Hawkins Bridge to Beaver branch there are sand roads or blacktop roads paralleling the river less then a mile away and in most places much closer. I guess though it is easier to deface...

    I broke down and got another Triton 500.I want to make my own aerials.I don't even like the subscription aerials from Vantage Point that you can buy a subscription for.I found a program for free that allows me to make jpegs out of geotiffs,mrsid or jpeg 2000 files and with Gimp to crop and...

    Emerald Ash Borer

    I seen those things while in the UP several years ago. A very pretty insect. We don't have a lot of ash trees in the Barrens.I think their going to go hungry.Now on the other hand the Pine bark beetle is living large.

    Warren Grove a T&E Haven

    I do mind planes but I"m glad the snakes don't.I only go to Warren grove on Sundays.Do not like the noise though i support their mission.Anything louder then an M16 or a Muzzleloader aggravates me. I like birds and frogs.

    Lebanon State Forest Project

    are you finding these monuments just for themselves or do you need them to get to stones? Are these monuments on the Topo maps or are they older then that?

    We live in a dangerous place....

    Coulda partially been my frame of mind while I was there. The night skies were fabulous though.Can see why the Arabs were so into astronomy.Absolutely nothing else to do.

    We live in a dangerous place....

    We do live in a dangerous place but I think it's because we have dangerous people for neighbors,that and some dangerous insects and arachnids.A hurricane every ten years or tidal flooding every couple years doesn't exactly make us a disaster zone.

    actually on second thought the way that concrete is shaped it forms a basin and may hold a puddle creating a wet microclimate for the Phragmites???

    Lebanon State Forest Project

    That be Phragmites! Would they be a result of the lime in the concrete dissolving? Or do you think it's the organic much from the Poop of yesteryear? There would also be lime in the soil from the outhouse operation,is Phragmites a lime loving plant like Ebony Spleenwort?
