If you are in your sixties or beyond, you have likely experienced many Memorial Day weekends. I can vividly recall walking in my Cub Scout uniform with hundreds of others down Wolf Lane onto Main Street when I was nine. Decades later, I watched my daughters march the same route as Brownies. After participating in that first parade,...

You’ll find me at Townline BBQ for Trivia Night every Thursday night. I’m not necessarily a “trivia person,” per se. Although my areas of expertise have been described as trivial, I am—if nothing else—self-confident enough to consider things I think are things I know…I am willing to admit that I’m not actually very helpful. Keeping things interesting, there...

If you live on the east end, you put mileage on your car. There are a lucky few who work from home or only commute a short distance, but most folks drive a good distance to work or shop and buy groceries. There are even a few who commute to Manhattan. Traffic can be annoying, but everyone has...

have always thought it was a myth, but I never tried it. The idea is simple, honey comes from flowers, and the pollen from flowers causes allergies. If you eat local honey, you are exposing your immune system to pollen that is in your area, which will give you immunity during allergy season. It makes sense, but how...

There are plenty of cafes in the Hamptons, but none come close to the community, culture, and coffee at Java Nation in Bridgehampton. Java Nation’s atmosphere is approachable, calm, and precise, sharing a refreshingly direct, what-you-see-is-what-you-get sensibility unique to the Hamptons. If you know, you know Java Nation is the best. I’m always willing to pick up friends from...

We live in our own kingdoms of our own making. Over the years I have lived through a Presidential assassination and a few unpopular wars. I raised a family and was in New York City on 9-11-2001. Then I somehow ended up a daily sailor on the east end of Long Island. We chase dreams; if we are...

Going out in the Hamptons can take its toll on your body—late nights, sugary drinks, shots, no water. Not to mention the impacts on your skin from too much sun. Starting this Summer, Heavenly Hydration is arriving in the Hamptons to help. Already en trend in Miami, LA, and Las Vegas, IV Hydration and cellular therapy are coming...
