I had to go back into the burn twice more. It's fascinating to be out there. I parked on fireline road in two different areas and went in deep. Big bluestem doing it's thing Bushy Bluestem doing it's thing Some fields of pitch pine had trunks less than 2 inches in diameter. True pitch pine...

Where is this? I pulled up and looked, and nearly hit the gas to drive away. Needing at least 'some' I asked for $15 cash. This is clear price gouging.

We tripped over it, actually -- we weren't looking for it. It was at Double Trouble village area.

That was in Double Trouble Guy, downstream from Dover Forge. It was Chris's Cedar Creek explore. One tough one too.....when we went all the way to Double Trouble after crossing Cedar Creek upstream from Dover Forge.

This reminds me. In that time, there were mule teams that carried the forge products to Philadelphia. I found a mule shoe on the old "Mule Road". I don't need it if anyone wants it they can have it.

Nope, they are not our friends. We need to distance ourselves from them.

By jove, I do think you tracked it down. Very interesting. By the way, China's quality has spiraled down to the same level Japan's was in the early 60's. Remember when 'made in Japan' was derogatory? I sent lacrosse boots back three times in a row in the last 2 months. And I ordered some coffee...

That's interesting Scott. What do you think about it's history?

It was a real feast for the eyes yesterday.

Exploring is in Chris's blood.

No, I didn't see that. Did you photograph it?

Recall that I was leading everyone in too far to the south? Here's the tracks, which show the importance of calibration each outing. At Bob's folly I calibrated and was fine the rest of the day.
