it's still a swamp for the most part......although in site of Manhattan........and partially developed...............200 years ago it was likely, one of the most beautiful wetlands that ever existed on this planet.

To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com I know the place real well, used to hunt there myself. As for the smell, I learned to fly on the Hakansack River in seaplanes. Our flying practice area was in that pig farm area, the smell came all the way up to 2000 feet.

To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Date: Tuesday, September 22, 2009, 4:06 PM I used to hunt wild fowl and rabbits in the Meadowlands when we used to call it " Secaucus Swamp" There was a pig farm close by and the smell would just about know you over. They even say that Jimmy Hoffa was burried there......

One of my favorite Cabelas is in Mitchell, South Dakota on I-90 on the way to Montana. Great place to stop and rest for a while......usually after having left that morning from somewhere just inside the Minnasota line comming from maybe somewhere in Ohio the previous morning.........i guess those days are over though. Cause i'll prolly never head to Montana from N.Y. anymore. The newest and biggest (to be) Cabelas is being built in the Meadowlands (N.J.) complex, where the N.Y. Giants and N.Y. Jets play. > Subject: [VFB] Re: Duh, what do you call this thing? > To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com > From: glw...@gundluth.org > Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2009 07:35:49 -0500 > > > I live about an hour's drive from the Cabela's store in Prairie Du Chein, > WI.
