That's what I've been doing for the past 5+ years. I just pick the leaves and honestly don't notice the difference once they're part of a dish. Wow, I've never run across a sign like that in the U.S. I've seen them in Quebec.

I've never run across ramp flowers, fresh or dried.

I recall bomb drills and at least once, in 1972, when it was real. We watched the police climb all over the roof of our elementary school looking for the alleged explosives that were anonymously called in. Turned out to be a hoax.

Bumping this old report carried over from the previous version of the forum to include an excellent video by Avery Zucco from three years ago in which he walks the abandoned property and provides lots of interesting details and insights. Hard to believe that the very alive hill my son and I...

In 2019, my father and his wife followed orders to evacuate their home in Northport FL, halfway between Fort Myers and Sarasota, and drove to Columbus GA, where they spent five days at a price-gouging hotel. Following monumental traffic jams in both directions, they returned to a completely...

who said this? said: No one in the mountains of North Carolina or East Tennessee prepares for a hurricane. It’s kind of like asking why someone in Iowa doesn’t prepare for a tidal wave or why someone in Florida doesn’t prepare for a blizzard. It’s not what happens, like ever. That quote ^^ was...

Why weren’t people prepared? No one in the mountains of North Carolina or East Tennessee prepares for a hurricane. It’s kind of like asking why someone in Iowa doesn’t prepare for a tidal wave or why someone in Florida doesn’t prepare for a blizzard. It’s not what happens, like ever. * * * *...

That's probably the likely scenario but you never know -- this was during my visit on December 15, 2019: almost 150 inches YTD. Separately, @MarzNC: don't you live in NC (Asheville)? Maybe you can let us know in the off-topic forum how are things looking there right now.

I haven't been there in three years; however, based on =1&c[users]=jamesdeluxe&o=date']four visits since 2008, it's one of my favorite old-school joints out west despite the limited vertical (a: no onsite lodging, b: enough terrain that it spreads out skiers, c: excellent snow preservation, and...

My wife and I are rewatching Breaking Bad for the first time since it aired and I love recognizing the locations that they shot in Albuquerque and throughout the region based on my time there from 1990 to 1993. Everything was on-location in New Mexico instead of the typical move of shooting...

This weekend, I headed to southern NJ to visit my friend Bryan (from several =1&c[users]=jamesdeluxe&o=date']Solitude TRs), who comes east to spend a couple months each summer at his SO's house in Port Republic, ten miles as the crow flies north of Atlantic City. Only 90 minutes from me but a...

Right, I now remember reading that, great piece. Wish there was a way to do a front-page/blog search without leaving the site.

I've seen a couple brief mentions of it here but am curious if anyone has attempted the Long Path? Sounds like something meant for @Ripitz.

I didn't add the pic below to my initial post but here's the machine that Roger Daltrey played in Tommy, confirmed by Wikipedia. Not sure why Silverball neglected to mention this bit of trivia in the bio. The Pinball Wizard sequence was shot at the Kings Theatre in Southsea and the two pinball...

Coincidence: last night, I started watching the four-part HBO documentary about Stax Records and Isaac Hayes was prominently featured.

My father had this exact car, a monstrous 1976 Coupe DeVille. I remember it was the first car I'd ridden in with electric windows, cruise control, and climate-control where you set the desired temperature and the AC or heat would work automatically. My pre-teen friends called it "the pimpmobile"...

Wikipedia says that it was extensively renovated in 2007; however, with the exception of the gorgeous art deco main hall from 1935, the interior is in really poor condition, filthy, and filled with homeless people. I'm amazed that the platforms are able to pass federal inspection. Yet another...

Before I forget, here's some additional content that didn't make my initial post. A map of the Central Railroad of New Jersey, also known as the Jersey Central: A map that shows where the five big train terminals were located along the Hudson River waterfront around 1900 (ten years before...

Any idea why Elk hasn't joined Indy Pass? It seems to be right in their bread basket.

I haven't been there since February 2005. Even back then, the infrastructure was antiquated for an otherwise mainstream ski area -- is that still the case?
