"You better watch out, you better not cry, ...."

Though these words normally are sung in Dec. to remind folks to be on the lookout and ready for Santa.. it's also a word of advice during the latter week of deer hunting, and also with the arrival of freshly fallen snow and potential black ice [and equally treacherous grit, if driven onto too quickly].. to drive alert and with caution, leaving room between vehicles, and abiding by posted speed limits.

FYI As survey stakes are more noticed throughout the middle of town.. folks are now aware that the Tennessee Gas Pipeline Northeast Upgrade is deciding upon the route to use for their upgrade - already in the works as part of their 300 line in Vernon. Originally, the existing Tennessee Gas ROW and pipeline was put through in the 1950's. There is a proposal to add a new loop because the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area was created afterwards, so using the original route would require new federal legislation, as the NPS does not have the authority to allow use of the existing ROW on Federal land. The proposed route would cross Clove Rd. above the Mini-mall and proceed towards the Delaware River and cross River Rd. near New Mashipacong. Scoping meetings have been held.
