Wife and I are headed out in a couple hours for 2 or 3 days of
easydoesit. Probably a night in the Thimble Islands tonight, and maybe
Mattituck Inlet, or Port Jeff before we return on Sunday.


Hey you're obviously cruising in my next of the woods. I have ridden
the jetski
from here on the north shore of L.I. to check out the Thimble Islands
a few times, very pretty. In Port Jeff there is a great circluar
cove just east of the inlet, behind what's called Mt. Misery, it's a
huge circular boating/party hangout. If you walk up the huge bluff at
the northeast corner of the cove, well, that's Mt. Misery, from the
top there's an awesome view of what feels like the whole Long Island
Sound and of the cove itself. Even if you just walk up the smaller
bluffs on the north edge of the cove there are nice views, and on the
other side of those, a beautiful empty beach on the Sound.
