Sagaponack Pond, too, looks impressively large, its northern boundary marked “Forest” and, at its edge, by 1750, the dam for the adjacent mill.

I am so disappointed and deeply saddened by the Regal Cinema corporate decision to discontinue broadcasting the Metropolitan Opera Live in HD series at its Hampton Bays theater.
