Long Island?
We went to a wedding in Long Island yesterday, after which we drove up to Oyster Bay and Bayville, since we know nothing at all about Long Island and thought we should educate ourselves. We found a beach-side parking lot and strolled along the beach for a while in Bayville. Though it was a bit chilly, it was nice enough, but it seemed very odd that we were able to walk along a beach at 6:30 p.m. on a Saturday evening in August and see not one person. Nobody was grilling on a beach house porch, no couples were strolling along the beach. We just saw seagulls and a dying crab. Maybe everyone was on vacation in the Hamptons?
The circuitous drive back to the LIE took us by some very tony and secluded houses and some horse farms, which was entertaining, but I think we're still pretty clueless about the island.
In other news, friend and co-blogger Lloyd is now the father of a very cute Orlando. Orlando is joining the ranks of babies-that-Derek-and-Cindy know, along with Asher (who already has a blog), Keith, and Xander. Congrats Lloyd and Kathy!!
