Hi!!
Here are a few last minute tidbits!
1. The Lines on the Pines event is a week from this Sunday...March 8th.
2. ---groggy Americans will turn their clocks forward one hour on Sunday March 8th at 2 a.m. (Second Sunday in March) DST.
3. The following folks in the book, People of the Pines, will definitely be at the March 8th event:
Bob Birdsall
Howard Boyd
Janet Jackson Gould
Budd Wilson
Gary Giberson
Niki Giberson
Ted Gordon
Jim Murphy & the Pine Barons
4. One of the fascinating books of the Pine Barrens, is Early Recollections and Life of Dr. James Still. A facsimile copy of this book will be available to purchase at the event….Henry Beck once said: “In the pines, they speak of him as ‘The Black Doctor.’ Probably no figure of backwoods country is greater revered or more graphically recalled. Only a few of us remember that Dr. Still wrote a book. It is from this book that the doctor’s story is best told.”
5. Two of Dr. Still’s descendents will be at the event, selling that book as well as The Underground Rail Road by William Still. The artist who did the cover of this book will have her art available too.
6. We have had a lot of interest this year including the PPA sending out the poster to all of their electronic members.
7. The NJ Pinelands Commission has put it on the state website

8. For more info on the Vienna Inn you can get there from this posting:

9. The Vienna Inn will be open for bar food and bar items from 1:00PM until they close March 8th. There are booths and tables and of course the bar for meeting, eating, greeting and interviewing throughout the day.
10. The event is most easily reached from the outside (side) Banquet entrance doorway. If that is crowded you may enter the main entrance to the Vienna Inn and walk thru the bar to the first banquet area.
9. Since the Lines on the Pine is always on the second Sunday of March...Next year it will be on Sunday, March 14th.
10. The ABC's for next year's dinner will be...About Blueberries and Cranberries. Nancy O'Mallon, documentary filmmaker has accepted the offer to be a keynote at the event.
Looking forward to seeing you on the 8th of March at 1PM!
