All conjecture aside, I think this is one of those cases where we are not going to know until we know, unless someone out there really does know, but then again, who knows? :D One possibility not mentioned is routine maintenance required due to the status of the line. While I’m not aware of the...

While no line pleases everyone, back in the day I found the 201/609 area code division as good a line as any. But they shot that idea to heck with the new area codes.

Nice shots and a nice truck. But I can't help but cringe, imagining the future screeching of the scrub oak scraping against the sides. :( You may try to avoid it, but when the bug bites you, you will push the limit and head down those narrower roads. :)

I dabbled in model trains for a while and that industry has changed as well. Most buyers call various dealers from magazine advertisements, or shop online. They find the lowest price, often without shipping charges. The small brick and mortar hobby shops that the Lionel trains of our youth came...

A crashed flying saucer! Have you notified the Air Force Guy?

There was a Little Beach Life Saving Station. It was Station #24 (later Coast Guard Station #120) It was abandoned by the CG in 1945. There were two additional stations to the south on Brigantine island. If you go to the live map section on this site, then the historic topo maps, you can see all...

The park is now closed to the public, for the duration of construction. A new visitor center will be built, intended to closely resemble the old farmhouse, as well as a maintenance garage, a separate public restroom and more defined parking. No more fishing the porta potty out of the bog on...

Hint: oink oink (unless this is a different spot?)

Grading can do the job if the holes aren't too deep, but it has to be done right, by putting a crown in the road. Simply grading it flat results in a mess not too far down the road, so to speak. Like many things, it's a little bit skill and a little bit art.

Sand mining in the pines? Oh no! Next thing you know they will try to grow cranberries! :rolleyes:

I started popping one in my mouth now and then after the Cloverdale Farm aquisition. Now I love them raw. I guess it's an aquired taste and tolerance, much like the vodka my father used to down as I would lemmonade ;) .

Anyone use a kindle, or similar reader? I still prefer sitting back in my Archie Bunker chair with a real book, with my flatulent labrador snoozing beside me, but my wife wants one and the little online reseach I did indicates more choices than I was aware of. Just wondering if anyone favors a...

I haven't had a good plate of frog legs since Sweetwater Casino burned down!

As far as I know there is no one standard treatment for tick bites alone within the medical profession, as opposed to that for diagnosed or suspected Lyme Disease. Some doctors treat every bite as if the disease has been contracted and others treat only if symptoms are present, siding with the...

I also noticed a large number of small brown moths in the pitch pines yesterday. I was involved with something else and didn't have time to catch one but I sure hope we do not have another pine looper infestation looming.

No Bob, the parks employees are the last ones to deserve thanks. We were being paid to be there on that day. You and all the others who volunteered your time are the heros of the day. :)

The area I was in mainly involved several large piles of shingles. Looked like a single contractor dumping on the same road over a period of time. Cameras would be nice there.

I’m fairly technology-challenged myself, but also find it amusing how often people panic and can’t live without something, even for a short while, that didn't even exist a generation ago. If I lost internet service, I'd grab a book off my shelf to read. Maybe I'd even talk to my wife. Maybe. ;)

While problems related to herbicide use are a legitimate concern, this article seems to be less about herbicides than it is about the killing or removal of trees that the sign companies were not legally allowed to, whether it was due to lack of proper permits or the trees being on adjacent...
