Was digging around a bit and found an image of a postcard from here.

OCSJ crew will always have the best info. The long-awaited state map is supposed to be coming out very soon and the state seems to really really mean it this time (as opposed to when it was supposed to be coming out soon for the past many years now and they apparently didn't really mean it).

Fortuitous post- this one is on my list for this year. I've been putting it off for way too many years!

Definitely . The Buckaroos with Don Rich were a force of nature, this gig (or really, any gig of theirs) would have been something to see. The gig would have been sometime between 1965 and 1969 when almost every album they put out was going to #1 on the country charts (and they put out 3 or 4...

From the 1957 overhead photos, it looks like the complex proper stayed to the west of what is now the current configuration of Dutchtown Road, not where the hospital building is today.

Updating this article in just under a decade each update... pretty sure it's now on my third different website. "A dude ranch in Voorhees, NJ that could feed 1,000 people in its restaurant? That saw legendary musical acts from Lefty Frizell to Buck Owens to Bill Haley to children's hero "Our...

@Teegate - Thank you for posting all the copies, these are fascinating!

On a beautiful Black Friday, we avoided the insanity of mobs of people at the retail stores to embrace the insanity of herding five small children down trails in the woods. After a visit to Batsto, the little ones and I explored the Rechnitz Pine Barrens Preserve in Browns Mills, established in...

Nice, glad you're still enjoying it! We had our first two recordings done professionally (second one we spent a ton of money with one of "the" studios in South Jersey) and we hated how they came out. Flat, compressed to oblivion... felt like they had no personality and that they didn't...

Finally got my files resorted (stupid 10 year old computer broke in July), I have photographs from August 2, 2009, then my next ones aren't until October 1 labeled "Return of the camera", so I'm wondering if my camera or memory card or something broke. I remember them asking us not to take...

I'm in the Phillies hat and that's my now wife with me. I see @Pine Baron in there too. I'll have to dig and find my photos from that day and see if they add to the proceedings at all, it was a great outing.

Late to the party, but finally made it out to explore this one. A friend of mine gave me a push by telling me it's his favorite trail right now, but I still managed to underestimate how nice that it was. I mean, cedars and a 200 year old road, how could it not be nice? Trail write up...

Went with the two oldest kids on Saturday. Nice 2 1/2 mile loop with the Yellow and Red Trails. I usually hate paved trails, but this one has some pretty views across the fields. The Red Trail goes up Arney's Mount itself (highest point in Burlington County). Sadly, the summit is private...

There was a moment of silence at Lines on the Pines during the dinner.

Can't count the number of times I stopped in to "look around", aka, just stand around and talk with Marilyn awhile. She was always in the middle of some big project, but never too busy to share her love of the pine barrens with anyone who walked in. She'll be missed.

Anybody that goes, stop by and say "hi", I have a table for South Jersey Trails there again this year, so I'll be hanging around running my mouth most of the day. :) I'll be back next to the big fireplace.

Yep, stopped to pay my respects to the good, grey poet. Walt Whitman, General Sewell (his grave is seriously impressive), and Ella Reeve Boor (I can't believe a grave in the early 1950s could mention Socialism so many times), were my list of targeted grave to visit. Wandered around a bit to...

13 years after I post on on a thread here about going to visit, I finally made it Wednesday. Of course, I totally forgot the Arthur Pierce was buried there, so I'll have to go back. Found the grave of historian Charles Boyer through... Boyer isn't far from General Sewell.

Good to know! Where's the dam in relation to the boardwalk? I didn't do too much poking around away from the trail because the minivan (ugh... stupid having three kids and needing a minivan) offroads about as well as a... well, a minivan and it was during gun week in the woods.

Figured that one out the hard way! At least Google Maps gave me a pretty good idea where the trail was, which helped. :) For those who haven't been, I'm taking this picture from the sign. My kids are standing on the trailhead.
