    Lehigh Gorge Whitewater

    I've never done the trip but I thought they tried to coordinate trips with water releases from a dam upriver. The Lehigh River does not look to be too roaring through that area though

    My MIL used to make creton. I think it involves long slow cooking of the cut of pork known as a boston butt. I think allspice is one of the spices in it.

    Hit or Miss? Snow 12/20/09

    I have 10 inches in my backyard in Cape May NJ. We usually do not get this much snow over an entire season. I was psyched to go cross country skiing but there is a wet slushy layer underneath the white fluffy stuff.

    Mittens for really cold hands

    I found a local yarn shop (Cape May NJ) that will knit and felt a pair of mittens for me. They had several samples of felted products in the shop which were very heavy and substantial. I almost bought the fedora they had; it was gorgeous in shadesof teal with flecks of fuschia in it. The...

    Mittens for really cold hands

It usually involves me stopping my hike and sticking my bare hands into my or my boyfriends armpits for awhile and using body heat to warm up. I always use chemical hand warmers...

    Full Moon, north wind

    Island Beach State Park by Toms River is a nice place to paddle. I also paddle off of brigantine and in Delaware Bay. for close stuff I usually put in the Intracoastal Waterway since its a short couple of mile drive for me. For pine barren paddling you really need a canoe and not a touring kayak.
