    Whispering Pines

    Those squirrels are nocturnal if my memory serves me. I've only seen them twice in the pines, one time was on a pbx trip. I have no idea if they were northern or southern, and I didn't realize there was a difference.

    Best Buy to stop selling DVD's

    Those 4 foot tall open boxes you'd walk by in Walmart or other stores with movie movie DVD's or music CD's piled in a heap? I don't think I ever bought even one. I'd always flip through them and wonder why I'd never heard of these movies or music

    Whispering Pines

    I joined a mushroom facebook page a year ago, just to see the photos. That group had newbies posting mushroom photos and asking "can I eat this"? Sometimes someone in the group said "sure". I told one newbie that I'd be damned if I'd eat a strange mushroom just because someone else said it was...

    Pine Experience over the Years

    I was not there. I have always liked McPhee's humor very much. Another book he wrote was very good and funny...

    Eupeodes americanus (Hoverfly)

    Try this, because it works. Stop your vehicle and sit there with the engine off and the windows closed until all of them are gone. Takes less than 2 minutes, most times within a minute. Then simply get out, and they won't be there.

    Union Forge

    I don't hear much of that one, but I think it was on the south side of 532 SSE of the dam. I think Lakehurst had a Union Furnace.

    Eupeodes americanus (Hoverfly)

    I want to add something about flies and mosquitoes this year from mid-july on. They were virtually non-existent. I was bitten by one deer fly, and he was a loner. It's been remarkable. I've been in and out of salt marsh areas several times in the last 2 months, and there was nothing harrassing...

    Flashlight of Choice?

    I just buy a 3 pack of LEDs from a big box store and scattered them about. Even then, I always wonder why I can only find one when I need them, and that's after a search. They always work.

    Where is this?

    Where do they fit all the cars and tables? I suppose somebody knows the person who owns the field on Liebig st.

    A photo to mull over

    It's funny. I grew up in the pine barrens mostly. Now I have a hard time "seeing" a different pine other than pitch or white pine. I was with Dave Snyder, the chief botanist for the state, and he pointed out a loblolly that I simply walked by on a trail a few weeks ago. Two weeks later I found a...

    Where is this? It is in a state pinelands management area.

    A photo to mull over

    Yes, and one other important thing, which I put in my application for a permit from Cape May Wildlife Refuge. Since it's a fly way, seeds are carried by birds, so it's in the vanguard for species moving north. I also told them I'll be looking for rare species on their property.

    Is that the old place at the Fries Mill ruins west of the Manumuskin River?
