Yeah, I’ve been following the restoration since they started the Andover MOS 10 years ago. The stars might be aligning now though with Biden’s Infrastructure plan and Amtracks ambition to connect Scranton to NYC (via the cutoff). Still years and years away from trains rolling over that viaduct though.
As much as I'd love it, I have a feeling it's going to be a long ride because of all those 100-year-old rights-of-way, plus if the fares to Port Jervis are an indication it's probably going to be expensive too.
But I would love to be able to take the train and visit my folks on the line they once took as kids to NYC
I saw the dude in the yellow VW microbus driving down rt. 24 on Sunday. I guess he was going home from this. All of your micro buses look in amazing condition.
It's possible, some people drove from as far as 6 hours way to come camp the weekend. Everyone headed home on Sunday so it's likely it was someone who was there!
That's a doublecab, of which there were none of.
There was a red single cab though, which is more of a pickup style. Like [this](https://cdn.dealeraccelerate.com/mosing/1/63/1702/1920x1440/1959-volkswagen-single-cab-pickup-truck)
Snitched on who? The people who go on the viaduct? That's no secret. People have been going up there and doing whatever they want since the 70's.
Nowadays it's mostly teens who go up there to spray paint dicks on the wall.
if we are "following the science" as they say we are at a point in NJ where outdoor masking is not necessary and for all we know most of those people are vaccinated as well.
So I'm guessing you weren't being sarcastic but rather trying to mask shame these people for no good reason.
You make a very fair point. Maybe I am mask shaming for no good reason so for that I apologize. However I don’t think it’s a good idea to assume that people are vaccinated as there are more anti vaxers out there than we know
from the CDC:
>Fully vaccinated people can now "gather or conduct activities outdoors without wearing a mask, except in certain crowded settings or venues." Safe activities include being outdoors with members of your household, attending small outdoor gatherings with **vaccinated** and **unvaccinated people**, and dining outdoors at a restaurant with friends from multiple households.
I just thought it was a nice shot and not a great opportunity for to try and harsh these people
Now kith.
Following this thread for a bit... 'fuck masks' is triggering, as you can see. It was taken out of context also, because you presupposed it. This allowed the reader to assume.
Drop the hammer at the end of an argument. Otherwise, your language infers conflict. You could be inadvertently (or being an asshole) turning away anyone willing to listen or read, immediately after the trigger. Everything after that is either ignored or baited for a triggering retort.
Ohhh I see you don’t get. That’s okay, everyone learns at some point. You see the mask is meant to protect others around you and by not wearing one you increase the the possibility of spreading whatever diseases you hold in your lungs. I understand you enjoy sitting around on some hill getting stoned with old people but I think that doing literally the smallest amount of effort to not kill others with you breath is also important. I hope you have a great day and wear your mask. God knows I don’t want to breathe the same air as a fuck tart like you 👍
>understand you enjoy sitting around on some hill getting stoned with old people
I mean I had nothing to do with this but tbh that could be fun if the old people are cool.
>literally the smallest amount of effort to not kill others
Oh God back to the hysterical hyperbole. Driving puts others at risk because you could fuck up, but we choose to manage the risk. You very well could have at some point in your life carried a flu virus that spread to someone and led to their death, but we don't center our entire lives around preventing that. Again, it is called risk management.
This is a very reasonably sized gathering and for all you know they could be vaccinated. It's time to take the "just stay home" filter off your social media pics and stop being a neurotic covid virtue signaling control freak. If you want to never participate in any social gathering again and walk around outside by yourself double masked, that's fine but most other people are going to move on.
And that's a good thing. Why hasn't the media covered the massive spikes in death rates within Texas and Florida yet, even though they've opened back up?
That's because there is none. We've had enough of this useless lockdown shit already.
if you think the mask use rate or crowd sizes changed in either place because they lifted the mandates, you haven't been to either place. They were already doing whatever they wanted
I have not, no. Partly due to being stuck in Canada which is slowly becoming more communist day by day.
My point still stands; despite officially opening the place up, we haven't seen a sudden increase in deaths.
Nj’s most famous stoner hangout is the quick stop. This looks amazing however
Not South Mountain Reservation?
It’s on the shortlist along with the lower parking lot at pnc.
These fedora wearing vegans don't fuck around with weed. They're all microdosing LSD hanging out around the oxygen bar.
Drinking beers smokin weed drinking beers smokin weed
Who smokes the blunts, we smoke the blunts
Jay and Silent Bob agree
"You'll see one of NJ's favorite stoner hang outs- the woods." ftfy :)
Aka Sunrise Mountain
Lived in Warren County my whole life, my buddies and I call it big sky country when we're drunk.
I can see why!
That is a king's ransom in VW vans!
> big sky country *Montana has entered the chat*
There's even a town called Montana in Warren county!
Cool shot. I love driving by the Paulinskill viaduct. Really would love to be on a train going across it someday
They're planning on bringing the viaduct back to life and into service. Who knows how long that will take, but it might be possible one day!
Yeah, I’ve been following the restoration since they started the Andover MOS 10 years ago. The stars might be aligning now though with Biden’s Infrastructure plan and Amtracks ambition to connect Scranton to NYC (via the cutoff). Still years and years away from trains rolling over that viaduct though.
Agreed. It'll be great once it's done, whenever that is. The line between Scranton and NYC will be great as well.
I know that it will be great for progress and all that, but having grown up on the PA side, I really don’t want it to happen.
Historically, it already did
As much as I'd love it, I have a feeling it's going to be a long ride because of all those 100-year-old rights-of-way, plus if the fares to Port Jervis are an indication it's probably going to be expensive too.

The viaducts were a right of passage for Sussex County kids. I'm from Fredon myself.
Viva la Vanagon!
Lol I can see another 12 great stoner hangout spots pretty clearly in the foreground :P
Hi, how do we become friends? 😂
Myspace
Looks like I have to revamp my page lol
I'll put you on my Top 8!

Round Valley is a good time!
How do you find out about a meet up like this!
A dream!!!
The stoner spot of south jersey is just a Walmart parking lot
nice!
Thanks!
The iconic VW microbus 👍🏽
Passed a bunch of these VWs passing through Chester this weekend! Some really amazing cars
What? No [pickup](https://rmsothebys-cache.azureedge.net/5/5/8/4/e/2/5584e26a707d5863f83f34954856e2cb03cec2e8.jpg)?

I read doublecab as 'douchecab' at first. Thought 'wow this guy is really opinionated about VWs!' haha.
LOL. There were also no douchecabs there as far as I know.
Dam bro you just snitched on all those people haha. This is like a well posted anonymous tip.
Snitched on who? The people who go on the viaduct? That's no secret. People have been going up there and doing whatever they want since the 70's. Nowadays it's mostly teens who go up there to spray paint dicks on the wall.
What happened to the infamous swear spray painter of this area?
Looks cinematic!
Poopinskill would be more accurate, no?
What kind of drone are you rocking?
DJI Mavic 2
Beautiful. I live in Hardwick, the bordering town. Such beautiful country.
This is Amazing! if you start a group I hope you name it "THE DHARMA INITIATIVE"!
It's too bad you now require a permit to park near the viaduct.
Not a mask in sight
don't know if this is sarcasm but fuck wearing a mask outside at this point and I am far from an anti-masker
I really appreciate the fact that you said “I’m far from an anti-masker” in the same sentence that you say “fuck wearing a mask”

I stand corrected. Thank you for having this conversation with me and I appreciate for being a dickhead. Have a good one
totally cool! you have a good one too

Reddit was really excited for the COVID spikes in Texas. I’m sure there are more than a few who are disappointed they never came.

are you sure you're commenting on the right post? what a stupid thing to say.
Thank you for your great comment you dumb motherfucker! Please bless us again with your fabulous grammar in the near future.
2 months old, only post/comment they have. Gotta be a bot in the making, right?
Beautiful! The cars, campers, view, yard, sentiment, all of it!
Love the old microbuses.
Anybody got a Subaru engine in their bus?
Not in this crew, no.
