GETTING TO KNOW MONTAUK - SOME OF THE
SCENES . . .
The Montauk
Lighthouse - where the sun rises first in New York
State.
and where the sun
sets - on Fort Pond Bay where the Fishing Villagers once
lived.
Montauk Harbor - Center of Montauk's fishing industry, where
hundreds of boats are moored at the many marinas and the
Montauk Yacht Club.

lunch at one of the several dining places at the Gosman
complex.
The
Atlantic Ocean . . .
to look at in
wonder
to walk in . . .
and let your feet sink into the wet sand as the surf
recedes!
to fish in . . .
and wait for a striper to strike! (Striped Bass)
to eat out of . .
. after that lucky strike!
In addition
to the many types of ducks, others inhabit the ocean,
bay and lakes . . .
Seagulls
everywhere
Swans on Fort Pond
and Montauk Harbor
Cardinals in trees
and bird houses in
quiet areas
Geese at lakes
Montauk is the place . . .
Where nature
lovers can walk the paths at Shadmoor Park to the Atlantic
and observe the variety of vegetation along the way to the
bluffs . . .
Where
you can observe the forces of nature that carved out the
rugged bluffs,
visible in the eastward view towards the Montauk Point
Lighthouse!
Where one can enjoy a round of 18 holes at Montauk Downs State
Park on one of America's top rated public golf courses, also play
tennis or swim!
. . . and where
you can truly relax in peace and quiet!
Not to be
overlooked . . . where one is not forgotten, by life long
neighbors and friends as on 2007 visit with Elizabeth Lane
(sitting) and Elaine Lyons.
