Day Five http://216.46.163.97/basket/in_basket/road/day_five/busfield.jpg First stop, Old Field...
http://216.46.163.97/basket/in_basket/road/day_five/oldfield.jpg Old Field wasn't on the original route but it was a very pleasant replacement... Sue liked Oldfield a lot, in fact she said, "I could live there!"
http://216.46.163.97/basket/in_basket/road/day_five/mapfield.jpg Figuring out just where Old Field is on Long Island....
http://216.46.163.97/basket/in_basket/road/day_five/fieldtower.jpg The tree is in the right place but I guess it should now be an evergreen tree..
http://216.46.163.97/basket/in_basket/road/day_five/islip.jpg We all got to add to our lighthouse viewing totals... as the town of Islip had about four lighthouses on each side of the street in their downtown area...
http://216.46.163.97/basket/in_basket/road/day_five/fireisland.jpg Next stop, Fire Island... Bob Scoope met us there and gave Dave some tips for Wednesday's lighthouse viewing on the LI..
http://216.46.163.97/basket/in_basket/road/day_five/fireisland2.jpg In spite of the rain it is still a great visit to Fire Island...
http://216.46.163.97/basket/in_basket/road/day_five/firehall.jpg Tour of the lighthouse and climb of the tower is next..
http://216.46.163.97/basket/in_basket/road/day_five/firestairs.jpg I believe it was mentioned 184 steps to the top, or in that area..
http://216.46.163.97/basket/in_basket/road/day_five/fireview.jpg Very nice view of Long Island from the top... it was raining but the tower protected us on the one side.
http://216.46.163.97/basket/in_basket/road/day_five/fred.jpg Several of us chipped in and got Fred, our great bus driver, the proper garb to wear ... Lighthousing.
http://216.46.163.97/basket/in_basket/road/day_five/montauk.jpg Fred, now wearing his Fire Island shirt, delivered us to the end of Long island and Montauk...
http://216.46.163.97/basket/in_basket/road/day_five/montaukbell.jpg Looking from the front of the lighthouse to where they surf-fish off of the Point..
http://216.46.163.97/basket/in_basket/road/day_five/fresnel.jpg They have some Great Fresnels at Montauk..
http://216.46.163.97/basket/in_basket/road/day_five/daisy.jpg This is for Mo! She loves flowers...

http://216.46.163.97/basket/in_basket/road/day_five/sunset.jpg The bus loading up for the short trip to dinner... Oh yeah- a Great Sunset!!!
