Mount Laurel Potters Field

  • 04/21/2006

If it weren’t for the markers, you’d have no idea this was a graveyard – just looks like a small patch of woods in between properties. The only indication this is a potters field are 2 corner markers and the lone “grave”. If there ever were any real...

The Matlack Grave

  • 03/21/2006

I found this while out geocaching in Marlton & Cherry Hill. This is yet another lone gravestone that appears to be out of place. I was warned to be careful with this one because either side of it is private property. This turned out to be quite true;...

Whale Beach

  • 02/21/2006

We had read about something strange among the dunes near Strathmere, just north of Sea Isle City. While not very large and not necessarily worth the drive from Bayville, it sure is…..different. From the road, it just looks like a high part of the dunes – with a...

Dog Chapel

  • 10/21/2005

Now this is a roadside oddity – a chapel for dogs on a hilltop. Everything here, and I mean EVERYTHING, has to do with dogs….even the doorknobs and banisters. There’s even a doggy door for the chapel. This was an interesting ending to our trip to Vermont.

When I first heard about it, I thought it would be bigger. It’s still kinda cool I guess….I really was expecting more though. This odd place is located in between 2 houses right along a main road near Deptford. “Pebble Palace” consists of a few little buildings and...

Pratt Rock

  • 05/20/2005

Pratt Rock was to have been the tomb for Zadock Pratt, who was a very wealthy tanner and congressman. Many things are carved into the rock, including his face, a horse, names of his children, and his birth date. There is a small doorway where the tomb was...

Hadrosaurus Discovery Site

  • 05/20/2005

This tiny historically significant area can be found tucked away in Haddonfield, at the dead end of a tiny road. Across from this area was a farm in 1858, when William P. Foulke unearthed the first ever near-complete dinosaur skeleton. The beast was named Hadrosaurus foulkii, after both...
