Dear Friends,
We knew it was coming and it did. Debris from the historic #rain and #flooding in #NewEngland has made its way down the Connecticut River and is now a hazard to navigation in #LongIslandSound. See this advisory from the NY Alert: https://member.everbridge.net/index/892807736728110#/alert/1062954476784037?event_id=99258

Happy Almost #Summer!
I know we’ve got a couple of months, and it’s only 56 degrees out there, but when Dockside opens for the season, it’s a good sign

Took some time for a top-down cruise this evening and ended up hanging out in Oyster Bay Cove on the north shore of Long Island

Dear friends,
This is a prickly pear cactus growing at a beach on the Long Island Sound. Such an amazing plant. They are tenacious and wise in their habitat choices. They're not rare here, but not as common as they should be. The orange tinged edges are a product of the low angle, backlit, sunset lighting.

Dear friends,
The tide was fully out and the wind manifested as dead-calm. The Long Island Sound was still as a pond, each ripple free to express its presence to those wishing to bear witness.
Questions: Is the sea a singular organic being? Does it experience desire? Can it listen? Does it reply? Can we hear it?

Today's Lighthouse....
#RaceRockLighthouse is located on #RaceRockReef, southwest of #FishersIsland, #NewYork in #LongIslandSound. It was built between 1871 and 1878 in a Gothic style. The lighthouse is believed to be haunted and was featured on an episode of "Ghost Hunters".

Similar to the process of lake-effect snow, a band of snow showers impacting southern New England has formed as cold air masses traveled over the warm #LongIslandSound . It’s officially referred to as ocean-effect snow but I prefer Long Island Sound-effect snow.

Reading this article about #oysters in #NewYorkHarbor https://projects.thecity.nyc/oysters-new-york-harbor/ made me think of #swimming (which I do) in the harbor and #HudsonRiver and #EastRiver and #LongIslandSound which requires shoutouts to the #CleanWaterAct, #PlusPool, #Riverkeeper, #NYCDEP and so many other organizations.
