Something in the back of my mind tells me that is along the Oswego River.

As a no-charge consultant to the county would fill the job (pun intended).

Although a generous offer by Bill Haines to do a rapid repair, if I were him I'd not do that, not on a heavily traveled roadway. Too many legal traps that could bind him in the future. Maybe if there was a hold-harmless agreement written up by attorneys.

Looks like that old girl rattler may have mouth fungus if I see it right on the photo.

Finger pointing in that article is rampant.

Did not feel anything in Barnegat.

Jeez, was it that long ago? I don't have any info on that.

Interesting slab of the past. It defines the term "rough-hewn".

BJ Thomas passes away.

Spot on.

They knew how awful the site is, and they went ahead anyway. It really is, with no exaggeration, totally unusable. Get your money back and start again. https://www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2020/12/21/nws-new-radar-website-slow/

Nice shot on that star flower Guy. They are notoriously difficult to photograph without flashback from the snow white color.

But they never holler about beaver killing cedars via flooding and cutting them down.

I see more on Dover Forge in "Boyer, Early Forges and Furnaces in NJ". In there, it says of the owner, Joseph Austin: "Joseph Austin was looked upon as an expert forge man. It is said that he was able to control the hammer blows so accurately that he could place a large knife edgewise on the...

Yes, they call that Mule Road too, so the old gent had to nudge those mules to the West. By the way, I dimly recall reading somewhere that the road heading the direction I pointed out was used for them to get to Hanover Furnace (on Fort Dix now).
