Not to mention the fact that most kids are off from school this week. A potentially bad combination!

Now I don't feel bad thinking I'm the only one that's run into a wall after waking up. :rolleyes:

The photo depicting the lighthouse tumbling in the water is of the second lighthouse which replaced an earlier one. The base of the earlier light can be seen in some photos and was used to store oil for the newer light. There was also a US Lifesaving station on the island which was replaced by...

An island has formed in the general vicinity, but the consensus is that it is being called Tuckers Island out of nostalgia more than anything else. I land my boat there now and then in the summer with my kids. The mud flats on the east side of the island are a good area to dig piss clams.

I went back and read that three times and laughed harder each time. :rofl:

I see my old red pickup in that shot! I haven't seen it since I traded it in last year.

Why am I not surprised.

As Chrisr said (which I read after I posted this :)), not only can fire “jump” across large openings under the right conditions, but a single burning leaf or ember can be blown hundreds of yards and can extend the fire well downwind. Few openings can be guaranteed to stop a fire but at those...

I’m glad you could figure that out! Those types of word problems always gave me a headache in school. :confused:

Very cool photo Pancoast. I always find it interesting to note the difference between the speeds of light and sound when watching the A-10s fire. You see that puff of smoke and then hear the guns up to five or more seconds later.

If the past is any guide, they will probably end up planting several million dollars on landscaping to “beautify” the scar they created, then try to justify another toll increase to help pay for it. :argh:

Yes, but Bob insists he never inhaled. (Or was that exhaled????????:clint:)

I did not see any of the posts criticizing prescribed burning, but since it has been brought up, it should be pointed out that prescribed burns DO NOT mimic wildfires, as far has having the effect of opening the serotinous cones of Pitch Pines. This may occur in the plains, where such burns...

I was looking for the old thread about it too. I seem to remember it being described as a pig farm that accepted refuse from a fancy hotel somewhere, perhaps LBI, and fed it to their pigs, broken plates and all.

It does seem a little nutty for a kids ride. I hope it isn't between the bb gun and the darts-at-balloons boothes.

Enforcement, signage.......and concrete barriers.

Now a turkey has to worry about being taken to court. What a fine kettle of fish!

I've never seen that edition but the drama club at Pinelands Regional High School recently staged the Wizard of Oz and their version included the jitterbug scene. I sat there confused, wondering how I missed that part in the movie the fifty or so times I’ve seen it.

I think I saw it throwing apples at Dorothy and Toto a long time ago.

I checked with my source and he was not sure about the small raised landforms, but stated that the dikes and impoundments were built by CCC workers in the 1930s shortly after the game farm property was acquired by the state. They were put at about the same time as the impoundments south of...
