Costume contests and Halloween crafts are just a few of the many festive fall activities and games the Children’s Museum of the East End (376 Bridgehampton Sag Harbor Turnpike, Bridgehampton, 631-537-8250, cmee.org) has planned for its Annual Halloween Bash. The celebration, scheduled from 4 to 6 p.m. on Friday, October 24th, will bring together families and children of all ages to enjoy an afternoon of tricks and treats.

  • Traffic in the Hamptons is Time Sensitive

Traffic in the Hamptons is time sensitive. Going east from 6 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. and west from 4 p.m. until 8:30 p.m. has become quite an ordeal. The initial expansion of “Highway 39” back around 2006-2007, in which the two-lane road was expanded to four and in some places six lanes, no longer is alleviating the traffic flow.

  • Sixty/Something: Solid Gold Rent

My first full-time year in the Hamptons started as a weekend and lasted a decade. I paid rent to a host of folks thinking I’d be moving back to NYC. Somehow the east end helped me transition to a very happily remarried east end guy.

This tale all started with me, a divorced dad having a fateful ride to Joe Shaw’s home as a favor to pick up a deposit on his sailboat. That day ended with me buying his sailboat. It was an on the spot spur of the moment epiphany moment. I knew nothing about sailboats or east end bays.
