My offering to you ... in progress... my life for 8 years... must come back to what is unfinished here:
❤**********❤
I know Greenport so well.
It was where my paternal grandparents' vacationed, at the Soundview ... I remember staying overnight with them one summer night. As the sun rose in the morning, I went out of our door directly onto the beach. Fishing was a passion of my grandfather's, and I joined him strolling into the surf as he threw his line far into the water!
I lived in Riverhead 2010- 2018 for its proximity to Greenport, specifically Peconic Landing, CCRC where my mom moved to at that same time.
** You surely Must check out the Vineyards!!! They have been noted to have bypassed the Sonoma Valley in wine production/ratings?
Irving Mendelson was a Manhattan attorney and grandmother Marjorie worked in education, also did the NYTimes Crosswords everyday...
My uncle Jon was 13 years younger than my father and I knew he'd vacationed with his parents in Greenport. We've always lived far apart but I adored him from first sight, as a toddler. Only 18 years my senior, he'd shown up (with buddies on the road) at our home in Pittsburgh when I was just 2 or 3. I was hoisted atop his shoulders and carried up a wooded area beyond our blacktop
My mother & father are buried at the Sterling Cemetery just beyond & aross from Peconic Landing and Brecknock Hall, on route to Orient Point.... https://images.app.goo.gl/7Ny6UYz9GA8V5Ja1A

fascinating Jane. Thanks for writing to me.
I want to share a piece my uncle wrote for me reflecting on his experiences in Greenport with his parents.
The time frame likely late 40's - mid 50's (he was born in 1940.)
I'll send before sleep tonight 🙂
