    Jones Road Fire Effects

    If you search over the maps you will come across several locations that look similar. I have no idea for the reason these exist, maybe for a controlled test for fire suppression? One spot that I remember is close to the Lakehurst runways.

    Charleytown Tavern

    I am certain that the Charleytown Tavern location has been discussed here in the past. I would have to search the forum but I think Ben brought up the location from a book he got from the historic society.

    While We Were Sleeping, Very Bad Things Happened

    They are literally turning Wharton into some sort of theme park with all of the crowd control features. Should we expect velvet rope and posts soon to guide the general public to wait to enter points of interest? Tickets please!

    N.J. will give residents at least $100 credit to help pay for soaring electric bill bills, Murphy says

    A hundred dollars of our own federal tax money is given back to us? Great. This expense will only get worse. I won't point any fingers at either party because they all are failing as wanting to fix any problems. Six major power plants have closed in New Jersey since 2017. In the same time...

    Where is this?

    I see poison ivy and possibly knotweed in your photo Bob. Is that wire mesh footbridge roadside?

    GEICO Insurance

    Just make sure that your liability limits are high enough to protect your "assets". It doesn't take much of an accident to get to your policy limits and beyond. One of the big issues today with insurance is vehicles have gotten much more expensive in the last decade and our fellow travelers...

    No Copperheads in the Pines?

    I don't think it was a copperhead. IMO, the isolated pockets in the Sourlands would be their southern most habitat. Tough for a lone snake to migrate all of those roads to make it Jackson ;)More likely a colorful Eastern hognose or Northern watersnake. I was thrown by a watersnake ID in...

    Just because I don't think you will find a better cover.

    New Spielberg UFO movie filming in Woodbine

    I wonder if Spielberg will recreate the railroad crossing scene from Close Encounters of the Third Kind? :)

    While We Were Sleeping, Very Bad Things Happened

    This is not good. At least the powers that be aren't hiding their intent. They don't want anyone in the woods and I believe it will only get worse from this point on. They got away with closing the woods and it will happen again but only bigger. It is sad. grumble grumble grumble....

    Some Pemberton/New Lisbon History

    Great set of period photographs! I particularly enjoy the photo of the youngster sitting on the wagon in front of the mill. Is that a scale next to the gentlemen that the loaded wagon is parked on?

    The Pinelands

    It's beautiful Bob! The drawing reminds me of the Oswego River! I like the poster so much I tracked a copy down on Ebay and bought it to add to the collection of pinebarren art and memories I have hanging in my hallway.

    Snow?

    The first wind gusts from the storm just hit here in Mercer county. The next twenty four hours are going to be interesting. I'm glad I just bought a new Stihl MS 462 for work. We may need it from the looks of things to come!

    Home Made Beef Jerkey

    E, I use whatever wood pellets I have on hand.The smoke flavor from a pellet stove isn't as strong or as intense of flavor as you would get from lump or chunk wood. It is mild. It is hard for me to tell the difference between wood species on my grill, with the exception of hickory and mesquite...

    Home Made Beef Jerkey

    I agree on how the quality of Traeger has dropped since production has moved overseas. I have a twenty year old Traeger Lil Tex that is built like a tank and well engineered. I probably have smoked several tons of food on it over the years. Last summer I finally had to replace the main board in...

    Anybody know what made these footprints?

    I think it is a cat dragging it's prey.

    Pine Barren History Shorts

    Food for thought. In 1937, the deer population was still recovering from being hunted to an estimated population of two hundred animals thirty(?) years earlier and that there were only three dozen game wardens state wide. These hunters had the best of luck and the worst of luck at the same time.

    Funny how different things are now.
