Barnegat to Brookville to a Bog

[Teegate]

All,

Jes and I headed out early again this morning doing some work for the USGS. It took us into the Barnegat area along route 534, so while there I decided to search for an Azimuth Mark that along with Jessica and my brother I had looked for once before. I recently acquired a map from a member of this site which confirmed I was looking in the right area. So I reread the old information I had and quickly found it.

Later in the morning we headed into the town of Brookville for the fisrt time and took these two photo's of the Brookville church. Those of you who have the Brookville USGS map, and have not been there, should check this little town out.

Then we went searching for a stone near a cranberry bog, but did not have the proper footwear when we got there. But we did find a bog completly surronded by an electric fence. I told Jessica to touch it with her tongue to check to see if it was live, but for some reason she refused. Kids!

You can just see the wires and the stakes in this photo.

So, you didn't go to Harrisville then?

Very funny!

So all of you are not in the dark as to what Steve's post means, I though for some odd reason that Ben's trip was today. So last night I did all the things I usually do to get ready for an outing, and Jessica was even heading to bed early to get enough sleep. Then Steve wrote asking a question, and I became concerned because he was doing something else today. Eventually, from his letters I realized my mistake. I would have felt like a fool sitting there waiting and nobody showing up.

In any event I adjusted and quickly made other plans.

Getting back to the topic of this post, Jessica and I were refused entrance to a gated community today that I wanted to enter to get some GPS coordinates of a water tower for the USGS. So if anyone knows the Barnegat Estates area and can help me out, I will try to explain what I did and want to do.

I'm sure we can sneak in some back way. Rent A Cops on the job.
