Since both of us are still not feeling our best, we drove around the burn area for a while today and then visited the Adam's Feedstrip to check on a little island nearby that we have not been able to get to yet. We are trying to hit as many as we can in the coming years.

My youngest daughter and a few people from her work went kayaking yesterday on Egg Harbor River and her boss caught a monster. My daughter said he really had to fight to pull this one in. My daughter caught a few but nothing like this. I edited the photo to cut him out as I am not sure he wants...

All, Eighteen years ago today members Bobpbx, Behr and myself set out from the intersection of Oswego road and the Red road (Stevenson) and explored along the Oswego River. One of our goals was to see Allen's Bridge where travelers from Harrisville and Martha would cross the Oswego. One of the...

Headed out today to explore the Buck Run area and revisit a plant site we were at a few weeks back as well as other places. Took this at one second. But the surprise of the day was totally unexpected. For years I have been searching for a monument I took a photo of close to 50...

This morning we went to the location that the female rattlesnake was located last year, just to see if another one was using the same location for the summer. As we were right near the spot I saw a nighthawk take off from the ground and fly to a tree a short distance away. I have only viewed one...

Took today off and decided to look for a stone I saw mentioned on an old deed described in deed dated April 8, 1932. This particular stone is on private property and I received permission to go today and look for it. I got out of my car and found this male box turtle. Look closely what is...

We explored along the Oswego this morning checking out a few things we have been meaning to get to. Stopped in a few plant swamps as well. Jessica flushed up a deer that almost ran her over but for the most part it was uneventful..

All, Jessica and I ventured today to the location where Bob and I made the Deep Water video years ago. Our attempt was to get a GoPro in there to get a better view under the water, but I was only able to reach down so far because the beavers had flooded the upland area right around the edges of...

All, Back on April 17 I was contacted by James Pullaro about a brick structure he discovered on the edge of a cedar swamp. This is James edited description of it. Yesterday, while exploring I stumbled upon a curious thing. It is a small brick structure, only several courses high. It is...

All, On Monday I get an email from bobpbx telling me he noticed a mystery contrivance while looking over aerials. My first impression was a truck and looking over somewhat older aerials it has been there a little while. Bob however disagreed and and wrote: "If that's a truck, I'm a horses ass!"...

Not long after getting married in the early eighty's, my wife as well as her sister and husband went exploring in the pines during a severe snowstorm. The snow was pushing up on my hood at times. We pulled into the Red Lion Diner and looking quite wet and maybe seedy, we walked up to the door to...

This photo is from the Library Of Congress showing a stream gaging station on the Oswego River in June 1939. This morning before our PBX hike I went to the location of the one at Harrisville and it is not the same station. So where is the one in the photo along the Oswego?
