    Where is this?

    Was at Hampton this morning - are these the concrete remains you're referring to with something written on them? This is very close to your pin drop but I'm not sure. There is also this big slab near the edge of the creek, looks like a footing. If either of these, then it would really take...

    Why will smoke and loud booms be coming from the Pine Barrens this weekend?

    I was all over the place today but spent most of the morning in Byrne/Lebanon and the booms were pretty significant.

    Seafood in the Pines

    Yes, I am also fortunate enough to own a first edition now - Doug from the Old Bookshop of Bordentown was the hookup for that - a wonderful guy to talk to. For now it is still on my to-read list. I've really been expanding the Jersey bookshelf quite a bit over the past year.

    Pine snakes

    I didn't think this film was out yet. I'll have to give it a watch.

    DEP Announces Virtual Public Meeting to Launch Wharton State Forest Visitor and Vehicle Use Survey

    Just to play devil's advocate: it could be the other way around - in other words, the numbers on the data slides could have been the ones swapped and the summary slide is the one that is correct. But I think that is less likely. Hopefully this was just an innocent mistake either way. I thought...

    Did they address the resolutions passed by any of the townships?

    DEP Announces Virtual Public Meeting to Launch Wharton State Forest Visitor and Vehicle Use Survey

    I've got a work function at 6 so I won't be able to stay on for a whole lot of this, but it looks like it's being recorded. I really made all of the comments I was going to make in the survey. Hopefully they make playback available.

    Could someone post an invite link? I cannot find anything in the emails I received. Edit: nevermind, I got it.

    Prescribed Burning Today - Wharton, other sites

    Just received that email as well. I was wondering if there was some kind of prescribed burn yesterday. There was a good bit of smoke visible, maybe in the vicinity of Bear Swamp, but I couldn't figure out where exactly. There was also a brush fire in a field behind Medford Leas a couple of days...

    Finding an Old Book

    Yes, you're right, "old" is quite relative. It's old to me, but in terms of books, 1971 is practically new. Currently the oldest book in my collection is from 1911 (Witmer Stone's The Plants of Southern New Jersey - the original, not a reprint). And even that is, relatively speaking, not all...

    Winter weather forecast

    I have not seen that particular doc but I have seen almost all of this guy's videos, documenting life as a logistics team member at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station and at McMurdo. He has overwintered on the South Pole base several times, when there is 24 hour darkness, gale force winds...

    Winter weather forecast

    Surprised no chat about it here; going to get some very cold temps this evening. Similar to that Arctic blast around Christmas Eve. Air temp around 8, wind chill -8.

    Finding an Old Book

    I just read through some old threads from about that time on here, that's very nice. It's a shame that some of the older front-page articles are no longer accessible and a lot of old images are gone. I would have loved to have met Henry Beck's daughter. That George Vail obituary is pretty...

    Finding an Old Book

    This is still not Sign Posts, but I have also now added the complete Martha Furnace diary to the collection, with Bisbee's signature. This was a rare find.

    I'll Never Tire Of This Spot

    Gorgeous shots, thank you for sharing. I remember that storm well. It lifted heavy metal furniture off the deck and smashed it into the sliding glass doors. We were without power for a few days as well. I still have a picture of the power outage map. Here's a gigantic old tree it uprooted in...

    From what I've seen, seems like you just plant a pole, and hey, you're fishing.

    Looking For A Vehicle And Exploring In Lebanon

    You could use some tough leather gloves or something when walking through thick brush. The briars will really cut you up good.
