    The blue comet

    This past weekend I was at a wedding in north Jersey. It just so happened, they had a “recovery” brunch at a nearby diner.

    Raccoons

    Jack (my seven year old) and I were out in the woods this weekend and came across four young raccoons. It was cool for me and very exciting for him. They went straight up into the trees and I got some great video, and some photos too. Two in a tree

    Dead Rattlesnake

    This rattlesnake met an unfortunate end on route 532. It looks like it's head was crushed. I know we don't usually post pics of dead animals but this is not very grusome.

    Another Ride

    I bought this jeep cherokee from my drummer. I still have my legendary bronco. The bronco is a battle proven veteran of the pines. It also has more lift and larger, more aggressive tires than the Jeep could ever have without an aftermarket lift. My plan is to replace the bronco with the...

    Northern brown snake?

    Found this little guy late last night as I was heading out for a bike ride. He was in front of my garage. For perspective, the circular thing in the bottom of the bucket is about the size of a nickle. I believe it is a northern brown snake, but perhaps some of the herp experts on the forum...
