Took a short ride to Alley Pond the neighborhood ecology center in Eastern Queens. There are two trail around two tidal pools in the marshes.
This past weekend I visited the Suffolk County Historical Society they had an exhibit of Charles Henry Millers Painting of Long Island. Queen was part of Long Island at one time. I was surprised by how little the Pond in Alley Pond has changed from his painting.
Some of his other paintings of Queens
