    South Jersey Magazine

    Chris, I just sent in my "best offer" on my own. I didn't know about the ability to do that before I posted the above. If they accept it (they have 48 hours to do so) I will contact you. You are under no obligation of course since I went ahead and did it on my own. PS: my best offer is a...

    South Jersey Magazine

    I'd be willing to share the cost with 3 others. We can trade an amount of of issues amongst ourselves each year until they are all read, then one of us can sell them for the group and recoup some of the money.

    new JD site launched....

    There are some of us who think places like the blue hole are more than scummy ponds. Their legacy is not just the cultural aspects and the resultant folklore. The blue hole is a relict from the pleistocene era, when the last wave of glaciers was prominent (11,550 to 1,800,000 years ago). They...

    Abandoned racetracks.

    Boy, that place has exploded, hasn't it? You can see these apartments from the parkway, makes you think you are in East Orange. I saw an article in the paper today about the new houses they are building off 72 West of the parkway. Very sad.

    Chetwood Brickworks

    That is a cool map. I don't remember ever seeing it, or hearing of some of the things on it. Ben should snag it for the collection. There is a "Mount Relief" for Mount Misery?

    Abandoned racetracks.

    The road crossing 206 was route 38 Ray. Even though you went as a boy, you must be nearing 60 years old or better, right? I don't remember that track when I was growing up. Whoops, wait, I found it. Mount Holly Speedway. I said 38 cause you mentioned the Vincentown Diner. No, it was North of...

    Chatsworth Atv park

    Tom, it ain't like the old days, and it isn't about common sense. Young people ride like they are the only ones in the woods. I have been surprised countless times rounding a corner and having to swerve mightily to avoid hitting an entire PACK of teenagers who's daddy has opened their wallet for...

    Sweat Lodges in the Pines?

    I agree with Ben on this one. I have never felt any more threatened in the pines than on a hot day, lost in some god-forsaken dry lowland without water to pour on my head, let alone drink.

    Sweat Lodges in the Pines?

    From the article...."Practical survival tips include using oil on your nose to rustproof knives, engorging a condom into a 5-gallon water reservoir and pragmatic ways to gut fish. One instructor shaved his beard with a sharp $10 knife, noting, “you can shave with a sharpened ax.” Sorry, I...

    Trip report: Shiver Me Timbers and Blow Me Down

    That's quite an accomplishment Al. The woods are thick back in there. We were about a quarter of the way in from the road on the northeast side last February and lost GPS. We got out following the sun.
