    Snow coming next week?

    That's interesting the one in Delaware. Funny they would not care about the trees right next to it. It's very well hidden. I used to drive 113 a lot going to Newport News.

    Snow coming next week?

    Possible. This is just south of 70 in the same area.

    Snow coming next week?

    Boyd, I wonder if you have previously considered talking to Ben about making a New Forum titled "Local Weather". Maybe put one rarely used in the background to make space? I wanted to post the radar image below and comment on it, but I had a hard time remembering where the weather threads went...

    Nationwide Public Lands Interactive Map

    Oh yeah, that works quite well. State does not have that.

    Nationwide Public Lands Interactive Map

    That is interesting Al. It's a good starting point though, as it gives the ownership when clicked on (at least on the ones I clicked on, maybe only federal). This one from the state is similar, and you can flip it to see the property borders...

    The History of the Pinelands Protection Movement

    I've seen similar work, but I don't recall that one. Is there a date on the document you posted? I'm throwing out a wild guess: 1967?

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

    Ugh. And every time someone wants to park to walk to a place they used to drive to, there will be no parking spot. In the Forked River Mountain county park, right now they are negotiating for a snake study before being allowed to make a parking spot right next to Lacey Road.

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

    You have made a good point, but it may not be just the town council making loose decisions. I heard through the grapevine, that after the petition was read by the DEP, they discussed the issue with Hammonton. Nobody knows what that conversation was like, but if it was as easy as the DEP attorney...

    NJ Establishes Nonprofit Parks and Open Space Foundation

    I don't see any good coming from this, I really don't. Why would the state ever do this. It's a bad idea in my opinion. Imagine Audubon or NJCF or PPA on the board: 'close this here spot during bird season, or snake season, and oh yes, no more beaver trapping permits, cause they are our dear...

    NJ Establishes Nonprofit Parks and Open Space Foundation

    This is not good. Now you are going to see what those with money and power will suggest. https://www.thesandpaper.net/articles/new-jersey-establishes-nonprofit-parks-and-open-space-foundation/

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

    We can stare at and try to analyze these maps all damn day, but there will no way greater to absorb and mourn the impact than to drive the so-called legal routes and see all the side roads lost to us. Until my dying day I will resent the Pinelands Preservation Alliance and New Jersey...

    NJ bag ban causing more plastic use

    I still use cloth bags I had in my car from 4 years ago. That article is bull. And if people are throwing them (bags supermarkets sell) away, or complaining about them, then go soak your heads, cause you are contributing to the problem. And by the way, those bags they sell now don't end up...

    Music for the day

    When they were in their prime. Yes sir. I always loved how jumping this song was.

    New Car or Nearly New Car

    As opposed to my yellow beetle. But damn, that thing was great in the sand. I'm surprised I don't have a photo of it, other than one photo from the inside of it.

    New Car or Nearly New Car

    By the way, I did have a lemon in my life; a lime green, used Volkswagon Dasher. What was I thinking?

    New Car or Nearly New Car

    The invoice prep/finance guy only offered me the extra warranty because his job demanded that, and he did not argue a bit when I declined. No matter how many times you go over the advice about buying a new car, it's still stressful. I ended up not getting as much for my camry trade in as I...

    New Car or Nearly New Car

    I had my 2010 Camry for the last 12 years. I paid $17,000 for it in 2012 with 17,000 miles on it. It never let me down, not even once. Before that I had a 1991 Camry I bought used in 1996(?) and had that one for many years, but my memory on that one is failing.

    New Car or Nearly New Car

    Did you know new cars get a 4 year registration now, and now you can get up to 10 years if this has been passed. My next date is 2028. I looked up why...
