From 70, I went north on Mt. Misery Road today (a way I've never gone before). It's completely dirt, but my Yaris handled it fine. About 2 miles in, maybe 500 or so feet away from the road, there is a decent-sized foundation with some pipes sticking out of the ground maybe 100 feet away from...

The subject of my next book signing came up at work (Lines on the Pines), so I told a coworker it was in Sweetwater. She didn't know where that was, so I then said it's in the Pine Barrens. "What's that?" What? So then I said, "You know, where the Jersey Devil's from." "What's that...

I tried doing a search for this but came up practically empty. I had heard about this a few years when I was out, dare I say it, geocaching. I was at Harry Wright Lake and somebody wrote something in the log about the nearby ruins being from a nudist colony. I didn't see the ruins and figured...

And here I thought they only guarded washed out Pine Barrens bridges. :v:

On the side of 70 today, just after the turn for Mt. Misery, I saw roughly 10 guinea hens all together. Never seen that many together. On occasion I see 1 or 2. Didn't know they could be that social.

Does anyone know where I can pick this up? Is it available anywhere in Ocean County? There's an interview with me in this month's issue, and my family wants to get some copies. They didn't even know a South Jersey magazine existed, and I have to admit I didn't either before they called me.

I put my Blazer's CD player on eBay tonight. It works great; I sold the Blazer and the guy told me I could keep the player. I was holding this for my wife's next car, but it turns out I really didn't need to since the one she got is much newer than this one...

This weekend, Saturday 11/10, from 2-5 PM at the big Borders across from Hamilton Mall. This began as my attempt at getting a book signing. The result is 3 local authors and a local documentary maker. As per the Borders website: "Featuring: Ryan Stowinsky author of Wandering Around South...

My red Mario Kart Edition Nintendo DS is up for auction on eBay and ends Sunday. The system is just fine; I bought the new DS Lite bundle 2 weeks ago and have no need for 2 of the same system. The auction is here if anyone is interested. It comes with the original box but is missing the...

A few weeks ago the Courier Post interviewed me. The article was printed today.

Anyone else going to watch? I'm hoping to see some from the Ocean Gate boardwalk.

Selling my truck to help pay off some stuff. '89 S10 Blazer NOT 4x4. Its doors say it is but it's not. The doors came from another one or something. 163,130 miles...not bad for an 89. Obviously it needs some work - the passenger window needs a clip to keep it on the track and there's a...

During my PA trip/house hunt over New Year's, I decided to return to Centralia to get some decent photos. For those who don't know, Centralia is the town that has been burning from underneath since the 60's. Full page can be found here.

To help pay for the site, I've made up a CafePress shop. Most of the stuff you can make on there I don't care about much, but I'm quite happy with the calendar I made up. It's Pines and South Jersey related. You can view the pics here. The entire store is here.

I haven't really gone anywhere Pines-related since my site camping trip back in April. Today I decided to put classes aside for once and just spend the day doing what I love. And let me tell you, it was probably the most stress-free day I've had since that trip in April. Up first was...

Just upgraded to an A600, so I'm selling my old camera on eBay. Own a piece of Wanderin' history.

I've been keeping this pretty hush-hush and haven't really mentioned it anywhere, but I have a book coming out about southern New Jersey sometime next year with Middle Atlantic Press as the publisher. I hesitated to mention it here mostly because I figured the attitude would be "great, another...

A group of 10 of us camped at Godfrey Bridge and hit up a number of things, some Pines related, some not: Winslow Junction Circus Drive-In Hermann City Charles Wills Friendship Shaler Grave Weymouth Furnace Carranza Brooksbrae On the way back to Hermann, we had to take an insanely...

Saw the Classifieds were gone, so I got the OK to post this here. Figured I'd give you guys a chance to get it before I put it in the Bargain Shopper this weekend. I have a 38 gallon fishtank with a solid wood stand (think it's oak but I'm not sure) that has been sitting around and I'm tired...

Found this lil' guy while caching in Double Trouble today. Never seen one this color:
