Dinner in Freeport On Nautical Mile - Matthew Weinstein (bicyclist)'s Photos

Jul 25, 2009

For the first time in many years, Lee and Alexis will not be joining us on our annual visit to Duba at her lake house in Ohio. We're sorry about that. To make for that, we met them half way (beween houses) in Freeport on the south shore of Long Island.

That town has a "Nautical Mile" - a street (Woodcleft Street), adjacent to a canall, lined with fish markets, boat yards, busy and noisy bars with live bands and great restaurants.

I took a few shots to give you the flavor. We had a lovely evening and a great dinner with an elevated view of the busy waterway and the sounds of music wafting up from down below. Take a look. - Matt
