The detailed description of the Arundo wreck in this account on NJ Scuba mentions the locomotives in the picture description. http://njscuba.net/sites/site_mud_hole.html I use NJ Scuba quite a bit for interesting accounts and pictures of what's down there with respect to the wrecks off CM for...

I happened to catch it by chance the other night. I was fascinated. As you said, it was surprising how they opened up their world to TV but I guess the price was right. I have always wanted to learn how do make shine but never knew anyone locally that made it. A few years ago I had some really...

My first digital camera was the Kodak 5mp Easyshare. It was a great unit and withstood a lot of woods abuse. Most of my gallery photos were taken with that camera. It is sad to see such an American icon whither away.

Eeeegads, that was painful Bob. I couldn't make it past a minute. Who told her she could sing ? I think she should sing tenor. Tenor twelve miles away ! :)

As promised, the Woodland tax map for the BSA property.

Wow, that looked like a good one. I thoroughly enjoyed the hike a few years ago where we ran a stream all the way up to a dry, gentle dip in the landscape. Nice work boys, sorry I couldn't make it. Tom, here is a link to at least the text of the Lower Mill revisit. The picture links apppear to...

Crappie is far from crappy in the eating department !

My grandfather's cousin, George Ivins and his wife May, had a dairy farm at the intersection of South Elmwood and Evesboro Road. I used to play in the milking barn and work a hand operated corn sheller with a big flywheel. The barn was located across Evesboro Road where the jog was for North...

Yes Terry, Harry Ferguson Ivins. He grew up on a farm in Medford, lived in Collingswood after college and in Moorestown for most of his later life. He was my paternal grandmother's second husband. The first one (my blood grandfather) died very young when my father was only 7.

Here is some more old paper. My grandfather's 1917 NJ game laws printed by the local Camden gunsmith Wm. Stein Company at 309 Federal Street. Musical merchandise and Glover's Dog Remedies sold as well. Seems like a good place for a gunsmith today, what with all the guns on the streets of Camden...

Tom, My All Around Sportsman license costs $72.25 and includes firearm hunting, archery hunting and fishing. No permits or stamps are included. Zone specific deer permits are $28 and you now have to buy another $28 Buck tag if you want to take a buck in the permit seasons. I just bought my 2012...

According to Fish and Wildlife, the first resident hunting license was required in 1909 and the first fishing license was required in 1915. They threw fishing in with hunting as a bonus. When I was a kid, trapping was thrown in with your hunting license. Today trapping is separate and more...

Cool stuff devilstoy. However, for us guys nearing death, the 1970's really isn't old ! :) The Pilgrim lake pamphlet is neat. I have been going by there a lot lately and it appears to be closed. Is it ? I have a lot of my game laws and migartory laws from when I was younger. I started hunting...

Very nice. I will still get the tax map for you. The tax map at a minimum will have the distances for each leg. The deed restrictions on the property are taken pretty much verbatim from the Pinelands CMP.

Here is a clip of the online deed I just pulled listing the restrictions on the property. Unfortunately, this deed 6720/984 and the prior deed 6005/764 do not contain metes and bounds. Sold by block and lot description only. Lame.

Here is a nice head start: http://tax1.co.monmouth.nj.us/cgi-bin/m4.cgi?&district=0339&block=6201&lot=2&qual= When I go back to work next week I will send you the tax maps. As for Bob and his beloved weeds, I apologize. Not really.

With any luck they'll torch the crowberry and smoke out them nasty snakes ! :D

The new Scout Law: Boy Scout Law A Scout is: Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful, Friendly, Courteous, Kind, Obedient, Cheerful, Thrifty, Brave, Clean, Reverent and Fireproof

Given the ruggedness and remoteness of the Plains, I think it will certainly make for a tougher breed of Scout. If they ever get lost out there and they survive it, they can go right into the Navy Seals or Green Berets.

I had a great time today with Bob and Guy in some deep, deep woods that I rarely have opportunity to visit. These woods areas are truly at the heart of the pines and you will never hear anything except your own breath and the whisper of the pines when you are back there. The corduroy roads were...
