Swords Into Plowshares

It isn’t the first potato truck I learned to drive, but it’s the same kind, a retrofitted army truck, rugged and simple in accord with its unstoppable American design. When the engine cranks and comes to life — as it has for 50 years, and will for 50 more — patriotic old men, many of them farmers, know to thank Detroit. But we’ve sold her. We’re thinning the fleet. A farm in Vermont wants this one. Almost all of our harvest trucks have a military surplus pedigree. With this pedigree comes a year. One of the oldest trucks, one we ... 19 Dec 2024 by Marilee Foster

Sag Harbor Historical Museum Awarded Grant for Headstone Restoration

The Sag Harbor Historical Museum was awarded a $10,000 grant to restore headstones in Sag Harbor’s Old Burying Ground on Union Street. The grant was from the Robert David Lion Gardiner Foundation, which supports projects that highlight New York history. The group of headstones to be repaired were severely damaged in the Hurricane of 1938 and have remained broken in multiple pieces and partially buried in the ground since that time. The headstones are a valuable part of Sag Harbor history, telling a story reaching back to the Revolutionary War. Capt. Lester BeeBee, the patriarch of the BeeBee family was ... by Staff Writer

Pulled From the Dirt

The solstice is just a moment, a moment when the planet’s tilt has reached obliquity and now it shall begin its trip back the other way. This moment took place early last Saturday, and by now our days will have begun to grow longer. Only it won’t feel like that. Winter begins with a sun that seems stalled in the southern sky. The days are very short and sometimes cold; frost is preserved on the backsides of buildings. Out on the East End of Long Island, on the South Fork, in a low-lying land we still call Sagaponack, things stop ... by Marilee Foster

Getting Crunched

Bang! There I was, stopped, sitting in a traffic jam on Route 58, or Old Country Road, in Riverhead two weeks ago, and … bang! It felt like my Toyota Prius was collapsing. My little car was struck by an auto that had been behind me, which was hit by a vehicle behind it. And then my car was pushed into a car in front of it in the pile-up. No one was hurt. But as Phil Hattorff, the owner of Phil’s Auto & Truck Repair, whose tow truck carried my car away, commented at the scene, my Prius was ... by Karl Grossman
