The Hamptons & Montauk Point

Long Island is a beautiful place! It is full of the neatest towns and villages and I absolutely love to explore them during this time of the year. Jose had never been to the most eastern tip of NY State and so I wanted to show him. We drove through the beautiful Hampton's and stopped at a few of the roadside Farmers Markets to look at all of the pumpkins and gourds. We bought some apple cider, string beans, cucumbers, and beets to try some locally grown fresh produce. We continued on through all of the hamlets and finally reached Montauk. It was fun to see this beautiful place after so many years. The last time I saw it was during the second month of my mission when I was serving in Long Island....almost 7 years ago. It hadn't changed a bit. The beautiful lighthouse stood just as tall and strong as I had seen it before. Jose and I walked along the boulders on the shore and talked with some of the fisherman. The wind was cold and pushed against us as we walked. Jose really liked it and was glad that we had taken the day trip out to see the end of Long Island...the very tip.
