Cleaning Out

There is no setting on binoculars that works in the fog — everything in the distance remains indistinct, and that is fine. Here, the low place, called Sagg Swamp, begins a nearly uninterrupted corridor of unbuilt-upon land: wetlands, ponds and kettleholes; the Long Pond Greenbelt runs for miles to the old harbor. Today, contained, the only fog is there. It rises up from the dark muck to smudge the damp foliage with its dreamy, silver light. So, above, as the crow flies, the air is tinted between gold and pink. Fog is a reoccurring theme, because it reveals a sense ... 13 Nov 2025 by Marilee Foster

'Novembrance'

Gaudy October is gone. The November landscape is muted colors, falling leaves and skeletal branches. The month opens with reminders of death. In the Catholic Church, November first is All Saints’ Day. On November 2, All Souls Day is dedicated to praying for the souls of the departed. The Mexican tradition of the Day of the Dead is celebrated on the same days but has a more festive air. It’s also observed across the United States. The All-Souls Procession has been an annual event since 1990 in Tucson, Arizona. San Antonio, Texas, is known for its Muertos Fest and river ... by Denise Gray Meehan

A Bright Spot

There were strong Democratic victories nationally in last week’s election, led by Mikie Sherrill winning the governorship of New Jersey, and Abigail Spanberger winning the governorship of Virginia, and other Democratic wins seen as involving clear anti-President Donald Trump viewpoints.

Although the race was predicted to be tight, Sherrill won by a large margin. This and other successful Democratic contests are being ... by Karl Grossman

New Traffic Patterns Coming to County Road 39

The Suffolk County Department of Public Works is expected to repaint the traffic lane striping on County Road 39 west of North Sea Road this week as it prepares to implement new traffic patterns that Southampton officials hope will ease some of the traffic backups during the evening rush hours. The coming changes will narrow County Road 39 to one lane between North Sea Road and Sandy Hollow Road, and eliminate the second lane on Sandy Hollow where it approaches County Road 39, allowing westbound traffic on both roads to merge into two westbound lanes from there on — eliminating ... 11 Nov 2025 by Michael Wright
