    The gages could actually be a photo from the airplane?

    A tick bite devastated a N.J. man’s life. Why are cases soaring?

    Me too, that sound. Last night when you and Al were talking I was going to mention that sound, but I could not think of a way to describe it to someone without them hearing it. Like unlubricated wheels on 50 shopping carts?

    Barnegat too. Was raining and I didn't realize it. Pretty wet roads.

    FAA Tower Area

    I have a bad sense of direction without the use of a gps or compass. I wanted to see if anyone else was as bad as me, as it would make me feel better. I've been down that road over a hundred times, and I always assumed it to be WSW. But except for that turn by the bridge, it is in fact NW.

    FAA Tower Area

    Guy, (or any of you reading this) without looking at a map at all before you answer; if you drove past the tower area on Beaver Dam Road, and went all the way to the Red Road, which cardinal direction would you be driving on Beaver Dam Road to get to the red road.

    FAA Tower Area

    I want to add something puzzling. The elevation here is 82 feet only 500 feet from the Oswego. It's kind of a high lowland. For reference, Harrisville lake, where the oswego enters, is just 14 feet in elevation. Here on this sand road, I kept seeing what looked like solid stone, very dark in...

    Ticks & Chiggers--a study

    I'm sorry to hear about your friend Al. He loved his treasure hunting from listening to you speak of him.

    Ticks & Chiggers--a study

    I recall, when I was at Lakehurst doing surveys in 2021, they have these small ponds dug about 1/8 of an acre round and 6 feet deep or so, in strategic areas so they could run to one and fill up the fire truck. Deer were walking into them and dying.

    Ticks & Chiggers--a study

    This past year, I have not had any tick bites that I remember, and only once did I have some larvae on my pants. 2022 was a very dry year, and this year is of course extremely dry. It makes me wonder if we've come to an inflexion point, wherein so many hundreds of millions of them die due to no...

    FAA Tower Area

    A couple years ago I posted a photo of one of the clay mudholes on the road in back of the tower. It covered the entire road. Now, not so much, but the water is still there, and still evident in all the clay holes on that road. I went back very far today. Here is that hole again. There are a...

    Near Wescoat Bog Today

    Regarding that platform, a couple decades ago, I was going to build one just like that (maybe not use concrete) up in the highlands where Webbs Mill Branch source is. I wanted to put one on an elevation that looked over a couple fields. Just because I wanted a place to sit and ponder. On the...

    Where is this?

    Ps: May I take this moment to bad mouth the Atl City Expressway. It is run like it was plopped down into a third world country. I rarely used it, but everytime I do I find it disgusting. I went 9 miles the other day and paid $4.40 for my ride.

    Where is this?

    I got that one in less than 30 seconds because I could tell it was a major highway. Atlantic City Expressway.
