From the New Year's Resolutions thread (Resolutions/Goals for the New Year? - Front Office Football Central (http://www.operationsports.com/fofc/showthread.php?t=80248))

1) Get out of the house more often. Perhaps start a vlog. Not the sit in front of the camera and whine about my day kind. Just take my FlipCam, go to parks, go on hikes, take "Weird NJ" road trips, etc and record them. Take pictures too.

Now that the weather is getting nicer, it's time to get to it.

Prologue, March 21, 2010

Over a year ago, I had started to do this, only to give up on it pretty quickly. Hopefully that doesn't happen again, but here are some pictures I took from the few walks I took last year.

Chestnut Branch Park - Mantua, NJ

A very large storm had passed by the area a few days before I took these.

Put the pics inside spoiler tags so they don't all always load up when viewing the thread.

April 8th, 2010 - A "scenic" area at Riverwinds, West Deptford, NJ

This was on the day of my first time looking for geocaches....I was 0 for 1

http://i1083.photobucket.com/albums/j391/JayWoodFromNJ/DSC00124.jpg

The geocahce is here....somewhere. I looked for about 15 minutes, moved on and was going to give it another shot.....but I ran through a field of stickler bushes because (I thought) I was being chased by a few bees (and I'm very phobic when it comes to bees and wasps probably due to being stung many times as a kid). I tore my legs up and had to cut the adventure short.

Actually, it wasn't the running through the field that did it. After I ran through it, I found myself at a dead end. I tore my legs up when I was trying to carefully walk back through it. Lesson learned, always run through a field of stickler bushes, don't walk.

And that was it. I didn't go looking for geocaches again or go to any parks. Until today, over a year later, when I took another trip to Red Bank Battlefield. This time I walked all over the park for about a half hour and worked up a nice little sweat.

April 23rd, 2011 - Red Bank Battlefield - National Park, NJ

I recorded some video but it pretty much sucked. I didn't realize how shaky my FlipCam was. I tried using Vegas Studio to stabilize it, but it just made it look like shit. Next time I'll try not to walk so much while recording.

Awesome. Was going to suggest geocaching to help give you more of a reason to do what you are doing, but it looks like you had the idea already. If you need any tips, I'd be happy to help. Nice pics!

April 30th - Riverwinds, West Deptford, NJ

Wasn't planning on going anywhere today, but I had to run to the store for a few things I forgot to buy the night before. So, I grabbed my camera and hit this little park area near where I live. It's the area where I'd go to run (one of the two) when I tried that. Battery died when I was walking around. Spur of the moment decisions mean I forget to check how charged the battery is....

Walking towards the Delaware River.

So it's been a few weeks, and with my sister's wedding today and my hangover tomorrow, I probably won't get out again for a bit. I wanted to this week, had the time, but the weather did not cooperate.

Anyway, I figured I would keep this a bit alive and share with you one of the people I follow on YouTube. His name is softpapa and posts a lot of videos of his hikes in Japan. Lots of interesting things. He shows abandoned buildings/cars/etc., he has a few videos about giant hornets, and other cool things. He has well over 500 videos posted and posts something almost daily.

Here's his YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/softypapa

Here's a recent video of his.

Mid-July, 2011 - For William Henry - Lake George, NY

Our third and last stop in Lake George (our second stop was to the Adirondack Pub and Brewery for lunch where we had this insanely cute chick named Gwen as our waitress - sorry, no pics. This was my first road trip and did not think to prepare for that contingency. Will not happen again. :) ). I was pretty underwhelmed by the fort. Most of it seemed more geared towards kids, which makes sense. I'm sure a big portion of their target audience is schools.

Anyway, I only snapped a few pics. One of the tour, a few of Lake George from the fort.

And that was the end of the road trip. At least the pic taking portion. There were a few more places in Lake George we wanted to hit up, but we were pretty wiped out after the fort. It was 90+ degrees that day.

The day after Lake George, we drove home back to our boring, mundane lives.

I didn't get a tripod, which I now know was a mistake. I tried putting the camera down to get a long(ish) exposure shot (I think it was 1 second) of the Philly skyline. It auto-focused on the top of the brick in front of it.

Just wanted to say I love this thread and the pictures. Have you found yourself mostly sticking to getting out of the house more often, or has it been sporadic?

I was getting out of the house more often until summer hit. Other than the road trip (during the worst heat wave ever!), I barely left the house. I hate hot weather and stayed in the A/C all summer. But now that the temp has finally come down to a reasonable level (for me, reasonable level is < 70 degrees :) ), I do plan on getting out at least once a week.

December 10th, 2011 - Sanitarium Playground - West Deptford Township, NJ

Had some time to hit one of the parks in my town. Was hoping for a nice view of the Philly skyline, but I was on the river (like, right on it, at its level) and the ships from the Navy yard were in the way. There was a higher ground in land, but lots of trees blocked the view. I haven't been to this park in quite some time, and it didn't look like the town had put any time or money into it in some time either. I was going to take some pics of the playground and the not-so-good condition it was in, but I was heading out to dinner with some friends so I didn't have much time.

Got some good pics of the sunset (behind clouds). I'm also getting a bit pickier about the pics I choose to post. These are all from one spot. I did take a few at a different spot, but they came out way too dark.

EDIT: I didn't resize these like I usually do. Let me know if you prefer them resized smaller or if I should keep them big and beautiful like this.

March 10th, 2012 - Riverwinds, West Deptford, NJ

Got a tripod recently for my camera and went to try out some pics of the sun setting and the Philly skyline. Unfortunately I got there a bit too late to get the sun before it set. Still a few nice shots of the sky.

April 13, 2012 - Delaware Water Gap - Mount Tammany

First time I've hiked up a mountain. I never felt more out of shape, and a few times I wasn't entirely sure I was going to make it. Of course, when I had those feelings, I was much closer to the top than the bottom and going down seemed harder than continuing going up. It was a pretty steep climb.

Mount Tammany (1537') = Conquered.
