Rosie and I went out to Montauk, NY right after work on Friday evening. I think our timing was great, It wasn’t peak season but it was perfect weekend weather wise. We stayed at the Beachcomber Resort & Hotel on Friday and Saturday nights. It was VERY comfortable (I’d recommend it to anyone heading out there). The room was big, it had an AWSOME view of the ocean and it was quite nice overall.
So we got there kind of late on Friday evening, so Rosie went to bed (she wasn’t feeling well), so I set up my laptop and surfed the net for things to do.

My connection time from Montauk with my Verizon Broad Band Card was a blazing 1.2Mbps. That’s better then I get in Manhattan and Queens. I was thrilled. I’ll attach a picture of my setup in a few days.

Anywho, we got up bright and early on Saturday morning and headed out. Diet be damned, I had the pancakes .. and the corned beef hash … and ..
(*i digress; or shall i say “i digest” .. ba dum dum)
after breakfast, we headed out to the Montauk Point Lighthouse. The Lighthouse is one of Long Islands most popular attractions. We had a great view of the beaches from the top. When we came down we walked down the beach and Rosie came across a sand shark that had washed up on the shore.
After the Lighthouse and the beach, we went down to Gosmans Dock where we had fresh seafood and cold drinks.
After a nap back at the hotel, we went out for more seafood and cold beers for dinner. Afterwards we went back down to the beach and looked at the stars. It was a beautiful clear night. We got back to the Hotel quite late.
The next day we had breakfast and spent the rest of the day at the Duckwalk Vinards in South Hampton. We tasted a number of wines and picked up several bottles for home. We also picked up some fresh veggies at a farmers market on the way home.
Anyway, it was a great weekend. I can’t wait to go back. I’ll publish some pictures in a few days. I left my digital camera at home and have to get my disposable camera developed *sigh*
