My questions kind of follow yours. Seems unnecessarily complicated to me.

What does that sign mean, in entirety?

Note that I said "daily" record. In other words; no May 23 date has had more flow in the recorded history of the gage. And unless I'm simply reading it wrong, today is a record too:

A new daily record for 23 May, I'm thinking. https://waterdata.usgs.gov/nj/nwis/uv?site_no=01410000

Could have been Birdville II. In the 1980's, there was an empty lot next to a home on Lacey Road that must have had at least 50 bird houses on it. It was right here...now grown over. Maybe he was the same man.

On their way? http://www.app.com/story/news/local/animals/2017/05/22/manchester-police-beware-bear/335547001/

She was a beautiful woman. I think it's great that she wanted to return to her south jersey roots.

Something fishy about that fire from the drone photo. Looks like multiple start points.

#8 is a female American Dog Tick, a vector for Rocky Mountain spotted fever, and Tularemia. Was in Sussex County yesterday, along the Kittatinny ridge. It was lousy with ticks....many, many ticks. All were this one.

True, but I doubt whether its even there anymore, and its certainly 14 years older than when I found it. Back then, American Pickers was just a gleam in someone's mind, so I had no idea it might have brought something. How about that patina, it's roached, right?

This topic reminds me--I have a faded copy of a deed (return?) dated 1860 for the Rutherford tract (Lacey Tract), issued by the General Board of Proprietors, of the Eastern Division of NJ. I'm giving it to Guy. There is a lot of history in here, with many references to Aserdaten, cedars...

A blast from the past. Bamber woods, circa 2003?

That was a bad one. There was another tree in front of that one totally knocked down.
