As long as social distancing is done, what is different than going out to
walk the neighborhood?

Harry thinks going to the beach is taking the train out to Fire
Island. I doubt he has ever seen a beach without people laying on
overlapping blankets.

Where do you get these absurd ideas? I've never been to Fire Island or
Coney Island, and I've rarely even been out to Long Island. We had
beautiful, uncrowded beaches where we summered in the New Haven area.

These beaches:

I've been up and down the Connecticut shore more times than I can
count and for my money the only beach worth mentioning is the one at
Hammonhasset.

However like all Long Island Sound beaches it lacks ocean surf. For
that you need to go to the south shore of Long Island or eastward to
Rhode Island and Massachussets.


I was surprised at how cheap beach front houses are in Milford. What
is the problem there? When I looked at the top hit on google for Villa
Rosa, the private beach Harry linked and it was Zillow for a 2888
sq/ft house right on the beach for $373k.

That lot would be $500k here without a house. Tear downs on the Estero
river sell for more than that. Six years ago a guy paid $549k for one
and tore the house down.

Pity Fat Harry. His ability to produce rational thought on his own, no
longer exists, if it ever did at all.

I am still wondering what is wrong with that place that makes real
estate so cheap. 3000 sq/ft houses on a private beach only draw
350-400k. I would think within commuting distance of the business
capital of the world would drive prices up into 7 figures.

He is talking about the pan handle, not that ******** on the North
East corner of the state you love so much.
The counties he wants to allow to open have a very low number of cases
and the beaches are not particularly crowded. It is very easy for your
party to be 100 feet from the nearest other soul. Don't confuse this
with Coney Island or even Miami, Ft Lauderdale. You could easily open
the beaches here too, for the same reason. At this time a year you
could walk a mile down the beach in Sanibel or Ft Myers Beach and only
see a dozen people. If you were on Lover's Key you might not see
anyone. Where my kids lived in Mexico Beach we usually had the beach
to ourselves.

This is a big state and the things that might make sense in Miami 600
miles away are ridiculous up in the pan handle.
