    Gerry did a little more digging and sent me an email below. I agree with his comments completely. If anyone wants the article, email me. "I did a little more digging and turned up an old article (attached) that indicates that the chigger species, the larvae of which can bite humans, has been...

    Show me the goods, that's all. I have specimens, they vouch for what's out there.

    Meetup With Invisible Menace No Walk in the Pinelands Park

    It's odd, I've collected and pressed over 1,300 plant specimens from the pines, and likely analyzed another 1,000 under a 50 power zoom microscope, and have never seen a chigger. Not one. Then again, maybe it's not that odd at all.

    Tim, a botanist friend saw that and suggested crimson clover (Trifolium incarnatum) would be more appropriate. Same genus. I've never seen that one myself, so perhaps a patch was grown as an ornamental.

    I'm surprised they were drinking beer in the open too.

    Meetup With Invisible Menace No Walk in the Pinelands Park

    And I wonder where she got those 6 willow trees she planted? The doctor gave her something for the bite, but in no way did they analyze what bit her, and she may be in a development where you can hardly call it the pines.

    Meetup With Invisible Menace No Walk in the Pinelands Park

    I have never had chiggers in the pines. They all turned out to be tick larvae, and I disagree with you Sue, I don't think they are in the pines. I got chiggers once in Maryland. That's it. Boyd: the term walk in the park is often used in the negative, like "hey, those math exams are no walk in...

    Mystery Contrivance Viewed On Google Earth

    Yeah, now I see the locations for the blinker on the fender. Come to think of it, my father in law used to lease lots in Lebanon state forest and cut oak. The guy he used to do the grunt work had a truck like that.

    What led me to the Ford was where the door lock is, below the crease in the sheet metal, and the little change in direction for the crease at the end of the door.

    That is a red clover. Likely from a lawn and garden vendor.

    A trip down Jones Road

    I highly doubt it. Maybe they were bulldozer lines, scraping the first foot off to see if there was harvestable sand?

    A trip down Jones Road

    I recall when that spot was all grasses waving in the wind. Back in 2003 PBX led a trip through there to the Factory Branch headwaters, looking for Swamp Pink. Mr. Parker came along in a truck with his family and was congenial; said he just wanted to ensure we were not hunters. He had his family...
