Spent most of the time in the car, unfortunately. This peninsula's landscape has something very unique, very Cape Cod – hard to put it in words, or photos – its air, breeze, smell, mist and could are all part of that quintessential quality of the Cod.

Finally, it feels like summer in NY – no more overcoats and sweaters!

Taking the LIRR to the West Hamptons. Love this old picture – probably from the 1940s or 1950s – for the fact that ordinary folks dressed elegantly in the old days.

Diverted to Port Jefferson, a lovely port town with small shops and lots of boats.

The ferry to Connecticut.

En route for Sivananda Ashram Yoga Ranch in Woodbourne upstate. This photo is from the early 1950s. All the women wore hats, skirts, heels and gloves.

Yoga classes in the Ashram.

Meditation in the serene Catskills Mountains.
