I actually toyed with that by accident and thought for a moment the Whiskey was getting to me before I figured out what I'd done.
Just having seen local images that showed things I was never sure of confirmed is a blast.

Very cool indeed. I found old fire towers in their original locations before some were moved. Including the Cedar Bridge tower in the 1950's when it was east of RT 539.

Rye Fields?
***************
I work for HistoricAerials.com and came across your posts regarding our site. When we were working on the Ocean County, NJ images with the "letters" it peaked our curiosity but I was unable to find out what they were and why they were there. Is this the rye fields you mentioned? What is the purpose of these areas that seem to represent letters of the alphabet and why are they placed in different locations in various rotations?
Any insight to the history and purpose would be appreciated. Glad you enjoy our site. Lots of new additions and improvements to come. We always appreciate feedback.
Thank you,

Rye strips for deer hunting..., I never would have guessed. Thanks for the info and thanks for the great comments from both Boyd and Jay. I enjoy backpacking in Arizona and have never backpacked anywhere east of Illinois. After reading many posts, I'll have too plan a trip.
Thanks again.
Thanks again.
Jim,
What a great site you have. I am sure everyone here appreciates it. How did you find out we were discussing your site? Did you notice a spike in activity?

Excellent work JMAXX!
Your site must be a labor of love 'cause that couldn't have been easy.
Ben's site is an example of dedication to an interest and sharing it.
It is good to see others out there that real work went into. Thanks.
I found a structure on my property that I always knew existed, but it's placement and immense size intrigued and surprised me.

Regarding the straight, channelized portion of Mount Misery Brook, notice that it was not there in 1930 and that it was there in 1956. The channel was dug out for the cranberry operation and was not associated with the iron days.
It's also interesting that there doesn't seem to be any houses at Aserdaten -- either where I think the house was or where Ted Gordon thinks it is. But the land on the opposite side of the road looks cleared.
