Fall Farm Harvest

It's Fall out East, the farms stands are displaying their harvests. It's always a colorful and amazing display of what the land provides. My bicycle ride is always interupted in the morning by the smell of fresh baked doughnuts sprinkled with cinnamon sugar and in the afternoon by pumpkin pies and a glass of fresh squeezed apple cider at Wickham's Farm

Orient Point State Park

A ride to Orient Point State Park was this weekends destination. Orient though not as popular as Montauk with its light house, is primarily a nature preserve. The summer nesting of Ospreys, Common Terns and Piping Plovers are the attraction here. During the nesting season Park Rangers are available with educational programs on these endangered birds.
