This new map is now available and is sort of the opposite of my 24k Legacy Topo which used the newest available paper maps. The 62k Historic Topo consists of the oldest paper topographic maps from the USGS archives. https://boydsmaps.com/#15.00/39.643571/-74.649638/historic62k/0.00/0.00 These...

More pines-related silliness from the Discovery Channel. Watched this last night, part of the "What on Earth" series. Following a common pattern for this series, they show aerial imagery of something unusual and then come up with all kind of ridiculous "theories" about what it might be. More...

Out for a drive yesterday, saw two state police SUV's around here in Peaslee, then another SUV plus an ambulance and some guys in a Jeep on Hesstown road here plus another SUV here . Didn't see any other cars or people anywhere in the whole area. Seemed unusual, wonder what was going on?

"It's unlikely that the state will allow drivers to pump their own gas anytime soon, however. The president of the state's Senate opposes a bill that would end New Jersey's ban.

A guy from the Forest service stopped by a couple days ago to ask permission to perform a "forest inventory" on my property. I agreed, all he wanted to do was collect data about the trees in one 24-foot diameter circle near the border with my neighbor's land. This is the pamphlet they gave me...

Watched this on Discovery Plus yesterday, fun way to pass some time on a stormy evening. It is originally from the Travel Channel, might be available on other streaming services. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11991002/ Several good "laugh out loud moments" and the whole premise is pretty...
