Thank God for Google: http://www.alberthall.org/PCSBoardHistory.htm

Thanks Ben. The little one does have rags on her feet. If she was, say 12 when the photo was taken in circa 1932?, then she would be 87 today. Its a possibility she is in some row house in Philadelphia. Be neat to find her.

Guy, I meant I saved the link to the library main search page. What I read was the Historic Building Survey about Double Trouble. Its good reading.

Thanks Dave, got it. Did you notice Double Trouble and the write up about it? Nice. I saved the link to the Library. Looks like a great place to browse.

Guy, both links failed. Thanks for trying. I'd still love to see them.

I like this photo. You go girl. My kind of worker. http://www.njpinebarrens.com/gallery/albums/album86/normal_adf.jpg Ben, can you enlarge this one? I'd like to see more of the details such as her face and the way she dresses. I wonder if she is still alive?

No, I can't tell. It is weird they are so high.

From Mark Demitroff (interesting analysis, nice that he always includes a bit of culuture): Are you familiar with Butler Place? I've attached a 1931 aerial photomosaic of the location. A red arrow marks what appears to be an oval enclosed basin. Tibb's Watering Hole may be yet another spung...

I'll bring my camera if I go. But I suspect they will be hard to tell them from regular pines topography unless you know what you are looking for. I don't at all expect to see large sand dunes like you would at Kitty Hawk N.C….I expect to see very low, undulating sand mounds covered in small...

And I'll say..."Peter, why are thou afraid, have ye no faith?"

Are they archaic like these, or are you speaking of dunes that are constantly regenerating and shifting due to local conditions?

I do plan to, yes.

Kevin, I live in Bamber. The depth varies wildly. There is a spot where you can stand up in the middle, and your knees almost show. I know one stump in the same general location, where if you stand up on it, your ankles show. Quite a surprise to people looking on from the road 100 yards away...

Mark Demitroff sent me this information about Dune Formations at Newtonville. Very cool. Below the email I've printed the meat of the announcement. I've left off the photos, but they'll be in the PPA newsletter (hopefully). I'll try to make this one: Hi Bob, I'm forwarding a paper on the...

He was a clean looking, cute little animal, regardless of the tail. He hunkered down in the leaves when I approached him. He just crouched there, real quiet, looking at me. I got within 5 feet of him.

Was crossing the road that goes from the 72 trestle to Woodmansie. Oddest thing, he was in a dry area, upland definitely. I told Guy, but did not look it up until now. This is him, definitely. Wierd...

I didn't give him a chance to be nasty. I surprised him by moving quickly and pressing my walking stick against his neck, pinning him down. He squirmed pretty good, not real sluggish. We moved from a maple swamp into a nice cedar swamp. Here's a sure sign of Mid-Spring: Here are the...

Thanks for accompanying me Guy. Always a treat having you along. That Buddy is a riot. He got the stem of that blueberry bush stuck between his front teeth. He stood there like that! Nice shots Guy.

Some more info on buying a wench: Ensure she is clean. Look at her medical and social history. Don't try to trade up. The one you currently have is probably the best you'll ever be entitled too. Be careful also of the weight. Heavier ones require a more robust winch should you and her be...

Sorry Guy, I was looking at the weather and I did not know if Kara was going to be around or not. She turned 19 yesterday. I will be taking her out to dinner tomorrow evening.
