Just a quick post with some pictures from the annual Halloween boat burning at the Long Island Maritime Museum.

Live music all night long.

The burning boat is spectacular and keeps everyone warm.

This was a 40' sport fisherman.

Huge clouds of smoke filled the air.

Good food from the truck, and trinkets for sale under the gazebo.

A handsome rowing skiff is the raffle prize.

Kathleen Prokesch, director of special events, announces the lucky raffle winner.
Sunday was a great day on Long Island. Beautiful weather assured success for many of the festivals scheduled and many Long Islanders, including myself, managed to get out of the house to enjoy what was probably the last warm day of the year. And at 85 degrees, it was record breaking warm.
My choice for the day was the Snapper Inn, one of my favorite restaurants. It’s on the water, it’s very close to where I live, and it’s real good.
After enjoying that one last, hot, summery day, I feel like I am finally ready to embrace Fall.
