    Stafford Forge after the fire

    That was a hot fire. I'll bet temperatures ahead of the flame wall were outrageous.

    Pine Barrens brush fire crowning

    I tried very hard to not use the "F" word around my kids. I slipped up a couple times, but I tried. I would not have let them listen to those guys.

    Pine plains on 539 after the fire

    Really neat vortex shots Boyd.....they probably happen all the time out there, but with nothing small to be sucked up, nothing visible.

    Build new instead of buy?

    I think: (a) You have good head on your shoulders and understand how to research and plan. (b) Foward this to all those construction friends of yours via email to get their input. Don't waste putting that nice synopsis together just for our input. Get others to dispense their knowledge...

    Hiking from river to river

    We don't need no stinking proper trail! We don't need no stinking trail at all! Sorry, I could'nt resist that Oregon man. I'm just teasing. I'm sure in Oregon you've been in some really wild places.

    Dunes in The Pines

    It was very interesting. No pictures. The dunes were what I expected. You would not know they were there unless someone pointed them out to you. Mark is very passionate about the area, and his presentations are excellant. He mixes local archeology, culture, and environment all together to help...

    Pine plains on 539 after the fire

    You all deserve credit. Very nice stuff. I hope you guys go back every 6 months to do some before and after shots. That is the real deal.

    Pine plains on 539 after the fire

    Guy, that photo of the three pine cones is excellant. A classic that someone will surely borrow to tell the tale of serotinous cones. Boyd: Are you sure that washing machine wasn't spinning when you took that photo of Forked River Mountain? :) Just kidding. Your photos are awesome.

    Pine plains on 539 after the fire

    I say no to that being Forked River Mountain Boyd. Can't be, its too close to where you are standing. You are around 10 miles from the mountain if you were on 539 just north of the bombing range. It is probably some lesser hill. Still, it is a mystery that bears solving. Maybe Guy can tell...

    Fantastic Boyd! That shows a good hot burn, just what they need to be the plains for awhile longer.

    Barrens of fire

    Kind of you to say that Chris. I love the pine barrens, and the plains are a very special place for me. They are clean and fresh, and remind me of a pristine desert in some ways. The other boys said it well. They need good hot fires to remain the way they are. If you don't have periodic hot...

    Barrens of fire

    I have no comment about fires in the pines. It always seems to get me in trouble.
