Scott, Just got back from a business trip to Orange County California, and this photo was on the front page when I logged in tonite. It was a nice welcome back. It says so much about our area, and nostalgia, and better times, and the value of open space, and how memories can be jostled and...

Yesterday I climbed up to Glen Onoka Falls up in Jim Thorpe PA. It was a gray day, but exhilirating hiking in the snow. If these show up too large I'll get busy rescaling them. Baron Von Frankensteins Bridge. Lehigh River Ice climbers at the first falls. Icefall further...

There are actual events by sailors turned into resolutions by the Navy. I added myself as number 11. How about you? 1. I won't ride an ATV up a so-called "hill" that is so steep that the ATV rolls over backward and lands on my leg. 2. I won't try to open a can with a pocket knife and open...

"A fired-up McNabb sprinted toward the Eagles sideline and suddenly stopped. He turned around toward the Cowboys bench and flexed, the way T.O. often does." Maybe some of you think he has a chance. I don't. He'll choke in the critical situations ahead. Its in his blood. He has disappointed me...

I had a couple steaks in the freezer that were well past the due date, so I had a mind to take them out this morning to a clearing in Greenwood Forest to see what tracks they'd raise. I do weird stuff like this sometimes. Anyway, I parked about a mile from Bamber's lonliest house and...

Jeff, This is in your neck of the woods. It looks like land that has been severely abused by man. Do you know what went on there? I have not been there, I am only guessing by the colors in the photo.

I do buy from them once in awhile, but their pricing is outrageous on some items. They must appeal to snobs. Their latest catologue lists the Garmin ETrex Vista HCx for $299. They are either trying to appeal to people with money who don't care what they spend, or they must be trying to pull in...

Ben and Guy, Do you know the photo that shows up in the banner that has 3 guys walking down the road? I think its from "3 river crossing" and that its me, Jeff(?) and Paul(?). Who owns that photo, I'd like to get a copy of it. thanks........

I did not realize the lower Mullica was dammed at one time. Who has the story behind that? This photo is from the 30's.

Sometimes a photo of something seen before invokes a memory deep in our brain cells but we cannot quite place the location where we saw it. I was out this morning trying to beat the rain. I'm going to post a few photos. Wawa often has charity/donation containers for worthy causes. I'll drop...

After last years false start, I had to climb Mount Marcy all the way. I worked out at the gym all year to do it right. Columbus day weekend in the Adirondacks this year was a rare event. It was sunny 5 days in a row, and temperatures hovered around 67-70 degrees. It made for perfect climbing...

I was out hiking on Dover Road tonite behind Bamber. Buddy was casing the adjacent woods out as usual and he flushed out a coyote. It started howling at Buddy. It sounded just like Bill's recordings only it was more agitated and short: ...yip, yip, yip...yowwwwwl! It was actually...

I got chigged good today boys and girls. I mean really chigged. I found this nice stand of twisted yellow-eyed grass, and I bent down to take a sample, and to my surprise the entire tip of one was absolutely loaded with chiggers. I had my camera, so I thought I could get a nice close up. I...

July 22, 2008 TULAREMIA DIAGNOSED IN AN ATLANTIC COUNTY RESIDENT The New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services (NJDHSS) and the Atlantic County Division of Public Health would like to notify the medical community of a newly diagnosed case of tularemia infection in a...

The little black ones are back again. I can't go to the garage without them attacking my legs. I have to buy one of those little raw meat traps. I like to drink them dry when they fill up with fly guts. By the way, I'm getting one of these cups for my hat while I'm out in the woods. I'll let...

Am I the only one to have no air conditioning in the house except in the bedroom this year? Its 85 right now.

I was walking in and around the Batso River today at Hampton Furnace Site. A guy and his wife (I presumed) pulled up to the building and started loading the building blocks into the back of their mini van--easy as you please. I started walking over there. She got back in quick. He threw in one...

Are you a big guy who is nimble on his feet in the pines? I surprised the PBX members who came on the last trip with Tee shirts I designed, but I got too many double extra large. They really don't look that large to me. If you are interested, I'll send it to you for $15, or $12 if in person. I...
