    Indian Chief Tavern

    I was headed east on 70 today. As I passed the "Chief" I noticed an excavator with a demolition claw. I doubled back around and took a walk around the building. Out back, there's a 12' wide opening in the exterior wall. It seems the time has come for another PB watering hole.:(

    Harrisville

    Last night, a friend shared with me a picture he saw on social media. It was a gal sitting in one of the "windows" of what looked like the paper mill at Harrisville & asked me to confirm his thoughts on the location. I agreed to his assumption. He then messaged the person who posted the photo &...

    Rte 542 bridge over the Wading River

    I was assigned one of the greatest projects of my career. It seems the aforementioned bridge hasn't been opened in about 10 years. Over the last 2 days we replaced the frozen/corroded brake assembly, lubricated the trunions and some other miscellaneous work. This morning, we completed a test...

    Energy Drinks

    While taking a hike along Fleming Pike yesterday I noticed something while picking up trash.....If one consumes an energy drink, why do they have to throw the can out the window? Shouldn't they have the energy to dispose of it properly?

    Slag in Deptford?

    I was working in Deptford recently and came upon this. Anyone have a clue why it might wind up in Deptford? Perhaps it was taken from a furnace site years ago? (That is, if it really is slag?) Mods......feel free to move this to the "Slag Heap".
