The family explored Long Island over the holiday weekend. It was an entertaining visit with the Boisclair family in their home in Huntington. We got to experience both the north shore and the south shore over the three days.
Fire Island is the south shore and it is still growing (sandbar) about 25 feet per year. It is a state park that has a huge beach. The weather was sweet, but not quite good enough for swimming. There was an excellent game of whiffle ball on the beach! Sage was adventurous enough to climb the Fire Island Lighthouse. It was 152 steps and 2 ladders to reach the top. She said the view was amazing. She could not see NYC, but could see much of the Island.
The trip home was by land and sea. The ferry ride from Port Jefferson to Bridgeport CT was Rayne first ever! As you can see in the picture, she was very excited to be walking about the boat.
