    Al...way, way, above and beyond.

    The Aserdaten Tract Location

    Mark, I don't think you even see a flow, or water pooled until you are well beyond the road that this cripple crosses. And in there, it is a gum maple swamp. Not that there isn't sand underneath the duff common in those swamps...but sand is probably not evident on the top. Now you and Guy...

    The Aserdaten Tract Location

    Mark, I suppose a "flat" in the pines can be a word used to describe anything where the same plane is maintained over some distance great enough to be noticed. But I see this type of photo indication more of as a change in vegetation due to the gathering of waters to build to a stream in a...

    The Aserdaten Tract Location

    Guy, that is a wonderful detective job you've done there. It brings it all together nicely.

    THE BARRENS: NEW ALBUM RELEASE ANNOUCEMENT

    This is a very fine composition of songs by Jeff. If you are stressed out, play this on the way to work, and again on the way home. I'm also certain that it will be a great companion on sugar-sand roads. I am particularly fond of September at the Shore, Where the Devil Sleeps, Sugar Sand, The...

    Prescribed Burning Bill

    This bill would give the Forest Service unprecedented powers and pack their purses with money to continue to build up that power and equipment and men. From the statement at the end of the bill: 27..............The bill would establish the 28 procedures to be followed in conducting such burns...

    Chiggers, Pine sap and Mutton

    The salve makers were under the presumption that chiggers were actually burrowed in and munching away. We all know that is a myth, so the salve must be also.

    Pinks are up....

    I found that older one last week too Gibby when Guy and I were there. The water was so low that it would not have made a difference if we did tear it down.

    Fear of Dying

    The only difference between legal drugs and illegal ones is that one was made illegal by high-minded authorities.

    Fear of Dying

    If you have an open mind, this is a great article for you. I say, go for it. http://www.nytimes.com/2012/04/22/magazine/how-psychedelic-drugs-can-help-patients-face-death.html?pagewanted=1&_r=1&hpw&adxnnlx=1335009698-Uhlv3ZREGyrJMclwlbotIg I like this quote from it: If treatment-resistant...

    Why Photograph? An essay on the value of amateur photography

    That was a great read. I agree about process. When I go out to study plants, that is half of the fun..going to places I've never been before, staying out late till after dinnertime on a summers eve, with one more damp spot to check somewhere in deep South Jersey. As far as the camera goes, I...

    Sewage service Into The Pinelands

    Take the same money and level Camden to the ground...then, on the outskirts of the formerly blighted area, build some low-income housing that looks up to date for those who chose to stay. Sell the rest on the open market, and you'll get your $50M back along with an area that is no longer an...

    No, of course you don't.

    Say it ain't so

    Not even close to being a good idea. I think that is in the Preservation Area. I think the article is a trial balloon by the Township. The Oyster Creek and Oswego River Headwaters are right there. It needs to be stopped.

    A Sawmill, or is it?

    By that time they were too expensive. I could have bought a grand total of 1 every 5 months!

    I like baseball, but this is not a good location at all. http://www.app.com/article/20120331/NJNEWS/303310033/Toms-River-based-baseball-group-may-build-6-million-facility-Barnegat

    Lake and Beers Map of Philadelphia and Vicinity - 1869

    That is a nice map relayer. I could see many names of offspring that attended school with me in Pemberton. And so many Budd's in Buddtown. Names like Norcross, Swain, Gaskill, Haines, Bispham, etc....now streets and creeks and prominent people! I wish they had a map like that all the way across...

    Ha, yeah! But when I got up this morning the pads were sunk in again. Then I closed my eyes, opened them, and that area swelled up again. It's an optical illusion.
