This is the beginning of our recent trip to New Hampshire. We decided to take the Orient Point Ferry to New London so we could save some time driving north from Long Island. It was nice driving through the countryside of eastern and northern Long Island. We hope to visit some of the many wineries out there soon. It was all of our first visit to “the other” tip/end of Long Island. Our trip started out normally. We left...

We’ve been enjoying ourselves this summer, and this trip fishing at Captree State Park was no exception.  We went on the 4PM – 8PM fluke fishing boat and managed to catch some nice fish.  The bad part of it was none of the fluke measured greater than 20 inches so we had to throw them all back.  Luckily Eddie managed to get a passing cocktail blue fish so we had something to bring home besides a few crabs that were caught in...

I went out for a few hours on my friends new boat tonight. We cruised around Northport Bay and caught a gorgeous sunset.

We hung out around the dock on the lake there at the picnic tables for a while and then took a small tour of the park. There were droves of people camping there and taking advantage of the large dog run. We arrived slightly too late to rent a small row boat. If we ever make it back there (or if you ever go) we will...

We stopped by the Makinajian poultry farm to show Aliya and Meaze the animals and pick up a little flavored honey before our trip to Blydenburgh County Park. There were flowers in bloom so I took a few minutes to snap a bunch of photos there of the flowers as well as the chickens, ducks, and sheep. On a side note, we tried their organic chicken before. It was good, and larger than the normal stuff you can get at the supermarket but it...
